Frequently asked questions

What are acoustic wall panels?

An Adeqo Akupanel is an acoustic wall panel made from wooden slats with real veneer on three sides, mounted on an acoustic felt backing. It achieves Class A absorption (NRC 0.90) in the tested installation configuration, helps reduce reverberation and brings warmth to your interior.

Use it in living rooms, offices, meeting rooms and home workspaces—places where comfort and appearance matter together.

Can I order samples first?

A good idea. Colours and wood grain can look different on a screen. Order a sample set and compare the finishes against your flooring and in the light of your own space before choosing.

How many panels do I need?

As an initial guide, consider covering 30–40% of the wall area. Rooms with hard floors or extensive glazing may need more absorption, and the result also depends on installation.

Our guide to how many acoustic panels you need helps you plan your room.

Can the panels be cut to size?

Adeqo Akupanels come in standard lengths of 260 or 300 cm. They can be shortened with a fine-toothed saw. Our installation guide explains how to achieve a clean finish.

How do I install the panels myself?

Many customers install their own panels using screws, adhesive or a suitable mounting system. Allow roughly half a day for a wall, depending on its size and preparation.

Follow our step-by-step installation guide. Always use mechanical fixings on ceilings.

How do I clean the panels?

Maintenance is simple: dust the slats with a duster or soft brush, and remove marks with a lightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning products. Read more in our guide to cleaning and maintaining acoustic panels.

Are the panels fire-retardant?

The felt in standard Adeqo Akupanels is classified B-s1,d0: limited contribution to fire, very limited smoke production and no flaming droplets in the classification test. The MDF core and slats are not covered by this classification.

The felt and fire-retardant MDF core have separate B-s1,d0 component reports. This does not establish the classification of the veneered slats or complete panel. Read our guide to fire-retardant acoustic wall panels and request the applicable test documentation.
