SUAM Schall- & Akustikmanufaktur GmbH
SUAM Akustikmanufaktur develops and manufactures custom room-acoustic elements made from thermally bonded polyester wadding in Bad Wünnenberg (North Rhine-Westphalia). The range covers ceiling rafts (rectangular, round, free-form), baffles, wall and ceiling absorbers, acoustic art panels, the dekaBel metal cassette absorber, and the modular free-standing screen. The PES core material is binder-free, fully recyclable and meets fire class B1 per DIN 4102. Certified to OEKO-TEX Standard 100 (test no. 94.0.0541).
Description
The SUAM Baffle hangs vertically below the ceiling as an individual element made of thermally bonded polyester fiber. It is suited to spaces where the structural ceiling stays exposed or where overhead building services must remain freely accessible. Each baffle can be suspended singly or on cables, mounted directly on T-bar profiles, or attached with magnets or to system carriers. It can be produced in custom colors.
