Soft Cells are acoustic panels from Kvadrat Acoustics, primarily used as building components, they are also suitable for post-fitting. Made with recycled aluminum and with a textile finish the acoustic panels are tensioned to withstand humidity and temperature conditions. They can be re-upholstered and their components reused as often as required.
Soft Cells Lowtone panels have a glass textile membrane behind a tensioned front fabric layer, they deliver excellent acoustic performance concentrated in the low and mid-range frequencies.
Sound conditioning: 125-500 Hertz
Applications
- Spaces with special acoustic requirements – not just sound absorption
- Small rooms or spaces with large free surfaces for combination with other types of Soft Cells
- Low-frequency absorption and high-frequency reflection – environments with constant low-frequency sounds, e.g. ventilation systems.
Panel components
- Aluminum frame
- Front fabric
- Acoustic Padding
- Glass Textile
Tensioning mechanism
Soft Cells feature a patented mechanism to keep the fabric under constant tension by suspension springs, creating a drum-skin effect. This prevents sagging.
Textiles and colors
Soft Cells are available in a comprehensive selection of textiles, which come in a wide variety of colors and styles. Soft Cells can be specified to perfectly match other textiles in an interior project, as Kvadrat offers premium quality curtains and upholstery textiles too. All fabrics have been tested for sound absorption according to EN ISO 354.
