ALPHA-GLASS
Product Description
ALPHA-GLASS panels are high-performance acoustic wall and ceiling solutions wrapped in fabric. They provide excellent sound absorption and reverberation control, making them ideal for applications such as home studios, cinemas, offices, and institutional spaces.
Sound Absorption Coefficients
Tested per ASTM C423 – Type A Mounting
Fire Resistance:
ALPHA-Glass panels offer high performance in reaction to fire:
ASTM E84 (Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials): Classified as Class A, with a flame-spread index ≤ 25 and a smoke-developed index ≤ 50, ensuring excellent resistance to flame propagation and limited smoke production.
CAN/ULC-S102 (Canadian Method of Fire and Smoke Spread Testing): Classified as Class A, with a flame-spread index ≤ 25 and a smoke-developed index ≤ 50, confirming compliance with North American fire safety requirements.
LEED® Contribution
ALPHA-Glass acoustic panels contribute to the sustainability criteria of LEED v4/v4.1. Manufactured from a fiberglass core with recycled content and wrapped in low-VOC acoustic fabric, they support healthy indoor air quality and meet acoustic performance requirements for occupant comfort. Their durable design, compliant with environmental standards, makes them suitable for projects seeking green certification.
