Texaa Abso ceiling pads

Ceiling

Description

Abso ceiling pads are absorbers made to drop into an existing suspended ceiling with an exposed T grid. A slanted version sits alongside the flat pad. Pads add absorption to a standard modular ceiling without replacing it, for example above workstations to create quieter zones below. Each pad goes in or comes out in seconds, and flat and slanted pads can be mixed to give the ceiling some relief.
