Acoustic Grilles for ceilings and walls - natural real wood panels

Acoustic design for a pleasant sound experience and visual appeal. Custom sizes and finishes for every project available

Richter Acoustic-Grilles consist of vertical slats that can be individually produced with different surface materials, widths and lengths. The slats are attached to each other using either aluminium tubes or plywood strips. These prefabricated grille elements can be attached to corresponding T-profiles of standard grid ceilings by clips.

Acoustics

Acoustic comfort has a major influence on how a room is experienced. Richter Acoustic Grilles offer an ideal acoustic solution with a visual and natural charm. The height and configuration of the slats can create an acoustic effectiveness and the desired atmosphere. Hitting sound is passing through the open areas between the slats behind the acoustic grilles by means of reflection. A high quality acoustic fleece laminated to the back side provides an additional sound absorption performance. In addition it offers the possibility to conceal the ceiling construction or cabling underneath.

Flexibility of design

• Richter Acoustic-Grilles offer interior architects, designers and acousticians a great freedom of design.
• The course of the installed grilles to each other appears to be seamless.
• Only the joints between the grilles or between room boundaries must be at least 10 mm (approx. 0.4") in the longitudinal direction.
• The installation can be done to a ceiling as well as to walls.
• The variety of material surfaces ranges from real wood veneers in natural or custom stained and laquered to popular laminates such as Egger or Wilsonart.
• The popular Richter LightBeton real concrete surface is also available upon request.
• The Acoustic-Grilles can incorporate various lightning types, system components or technical devices such as room air quality measuring devices.

The System

Depending on the thickness and distance of the slats, the Acoustic-Grilles can be produced between 300 and 500 mm (11.8" and 19.7") in width. The length of the slats can be between 500 and 2700 mm (19.7" and 106.3") depending on the pitch of the T-profiles (other length are available). Due to the connection of the single slats, they can be different in dimensions and surfaces within a grill if necessary. This can give the wall or ceiling surfaces their own special character.

The Construction

Acoustic-Grilles are defined and specified by the five basic characteristics:

X = Number of slats

A = Distance between salts

B = Thickness of slats

C = Height of slats

D = Width of grille

The Dimensions

Standard dimensions of the slats:

Length:                          500 - 27000 mm (19.7 - 106.3")

Height [C]                      45 - 150 mm (1.8" - 5.9")

Thickness [W]                12 - 51 mm (0.5 - 2.0")

Standard width grill [D]:305 mm (12.0") other dimensions available

The Weight

Richter Acoustic-Grilles weigh between 9 and 30 kg/m2 (1.8 and 6.1 lbs/sqft), depending on the dimensions and number of slats.
