Silk Metal™

Micro-Perforated Metal Acoustic Ceiling & Wall Panels

Our unique Silk Metal ceiling & wall panels are state-of-the-art micro-perforated aluminum sound absorber panels that reduce echo and sound reflections. These perforated metal acoustic panels for ceilings and walls have an elegantly smooth appearance, with an excellent NRC rating of 0.80. Resembling smooth silk fabric, Silk Metal is available in tegular or flat ceiling tiles that install easily into any standard 15/16″ ceiling grid.

Silk Metal uses a patented angled micro-perforation method rather than traditional direct 90° perforation methods. These micro-perforations help achieve the ideal surface to absorb wave energy generated by sound and electromagnetic waves, and for heat mitigation.

Features:

  • Available in anodized or custom printing finishes
  • Cost-effective
  • Tegular or flat lay-in ceiling tiles easily install into standard 15/16″ grid
  • Excellent NRC rating – 0.80 NRC when used as a lay-in ceiling tile. No acoustical liner needed
  • Smooth surface finish
  • Tested and proven to achieve AEMIC (acoustical & electromagnetic interference control) capabilities
