— WHAT THEY ARE —

What are acoustic baffles?

Acoustic baffles are vertically suspended acoustic elements installed below the ceiling. Because both faces are exposed to the sound field, they are effective in reducing echo and reverberation in spaces where wall treatment is limited or where ceiling absorption is required.

Important note for metal baffles: The metal face itself is not the main absorber for metal baffles. Absorption is achieved through perforations, acoustic fleece or infill, internal cavity, and exposed baffle surfaces.
