How to Choose the Right Acoustic Wood Panels for Your Project?

Regardless of a residential or commercial building project, one key interior design element you shouldn’t overlook is aesthetics. These days, many building owners are mounting soundproof wood panels as a new kind of interior design product.

However, these panels do more than just enhance the building project’s aesthetics. They also control the sound in a room and ensure spaces work how they are supposed to. But how can you pick the best option for your project out of all the available ones?

In this article, we have put together some tips and considerations considering which you can pick the right acoustic wooden panels for your project.

Tips to Choose the Perfect Acoustic Wood Panels for a Project

While selecting the soundproof wood acoustic panels, consider the following tips to make an informed choice:

1. Understand Your Project’s Needs

Before you start navigating the market for acoustic wooden panels, first you should take time to understand your project’s requirements. Different environments have different sound management and aesthetic needs and thus, require different soundproofing solutions. Basically, a space's interior design and intended use will heavily influence your decision.

For example, a recording studio might benefit from wooden acoustic panels or fabric wrapped panels to control echoes and sound reflection along with a 1” or 2” acoustical backing to achieve that highest NRC (Noise Reduction Coefficient). Our wood panels are perfect for recording studios, offices, lobbies, gymnasiums, restaraunts, cafes, and conference rooms. TerrAcoustics® panels are great for educational, hospitality, commercial, and even residential projects, to reduce undesired noise and improve speech clarity while also giving a beautiful wood design to the space. Need it modern? Solid HPL colours are also an option as well as painted panels with the specified paint color.

So, ask yourself these questions:

  • What’s the primary purpose of space?
  • How much and what noise needs to be managed?
  • What are the aesthetic goals of your project?

Once you know the answers, look for soundproofing wood panels that align your project’s functional and visual needs.

2. Knowing Types of Acoustic Wood Panels

Sound control properties of wooden acoustic panels vary with their types. So, being familiar with different types of acoustic wooden panels might help you make the right choice for your project:

  • Perforated Acoustic Wood Panels: These panels allow sound waves to enter through small to medium sized perforations, and their acoustical insulation backing absorbs them. You can use them for your auditoriums, conference rooms, and office projects, anywhere the key requirement is to reduce noise while maintaining a sleek, modern look or a more traditional warm wood look.
  • Slotted Acoustic Wood Panels: Adorned with narrow wooden slots with gaps in between, slotted wooden panels not only diffuse noise but can also create a visually appealing look for any space that needs design and acoustics.
  • Grooved Acoustic Wood Panels: Featuring linear grooves on the surface, grooved soundproofing wooden panels can diffuse and absorb sound, reduce reverberation, and stop echoes, making them perfect for large theaters and concert halls. It is one of our most popular patterns and can be used in any interior setting!
