Acoustic Slat Panels
Acoustic slat panels are timber slats fixed over a felt backing. Sound passes through the gaps and is absorbed by the felt, so the wall reads as a joinery finish first and an acoustic product second. They suit receptions, boardrooms and residential spaces.
Slat width, spacing and timber finish set the look, and the spacing also affects how much sound reaches the felt. Natural materials and planted interiors pair well with them. We match pattern and finish from the ranges we work with, then supply and install across the UK.

From first survey to final finish

An acoustician visits the site, or works from your drawings and photos when a visit isn't practical. Either way, the room, its surfaces and how it is used are recorded before any advice is given.
Reverberation, ambient noise and noise transfer are read against what the space is used for. The findings arrive as an AI-assisted acoustic report with recommendations, yours to keep with no obligation to proceed.
Treatment is modelled against a reverberation target, then drawn up with panel positions, fixings and finishes. Nothing moves forward until you have approved the design.
Every quotation comes with the specification behind it, listing products by type, quantity and finish with costs set out line by line. What is quoted is what the design calls for.
Panels, baffles, ceilings and screens come from the manufacturers we work with and are supplied to the approved specification. What arrives on site matches what was designed.
Our installation team fits to the approved drawings, checking positions and fixings as they go. One team supplies and installs the treatment.
Optional paid add-on: after fit-out the space can be measured again and compared with the original survey, so the improvement is measured rather than assumed. Compliance testing is carried out with our testing partner, EMC Acoustics, and the written record goes into your building file.

Specification, performance and installation
Your product questions, answered.
Timber acoustic panels are timber slats fixed over a felt backing, with sound passing through the gaps. Acoustic wood panels are continuous boards with perforations or grooves. Slats give a stronger linear look, while perforated boards look smoother. We compare both against your finish and absorption target.
Yes, veneered and solid options both exist. The choice changes cost, weight and appearance, not the acoustic result, which comes from the slat spacing and the felt backing. Veneer is often more stable and more economical over large areas.
Most arrive pre-finished, so little or no on-site treatment is needed, although requirements depend on the product and finish. We confirm them before installation. Avoid painting or sealing over the felt or the slot openings, because that would reduce absorption.
Yes, they suit natural-material interiors of wood, stone and greenery. Timber moves slightly with humidity and can change colour in strong sunlight, so we specify the finish and fixing for the room's actual conditions.
In many ranges, yes, within the manufacturer's options. Wider gaps let more sound reach the felt, which increases absorption but changes the look. We confirm what spacing and slat widths are achievable at specification stage.
