Armstrong® Ceiling Solutions has expanded its portfolio of ceiling panels that provide Total Acoustics™ performance with the addition of select MetalWorks™ and Woodworks® product lines. 

Total Acoustics ceiling panels feature the ideal combination of sound absorption and sound blocking in the same panel. By providing the ability to both absorb unwanted sound and block sound from traveling into adjacent spaces, Total Acoustics ceiling panels are an ideal choice for today’s flexible interiors where a mix of private spaces and open spaces often share the same floor space. Armstrong is the only wood or metal ceiling manufacturer to offer this type of acoustical performance in its ceilings. 

Acoustics Meet Aesthetics

When perforated and backed with an infill panel, the new additions not only provide excellent noise control but also enhanced design flexibility, especially in signature spaces. In areas where a strong visual statement is desired, MetalWorks panels impart a sleek, sophisticated look while WoodWorks panels impart a rich, warm look.

According to internationally known sound and communication expert, Julian Treasure, the new Total Acoustics additions offer a range of creative acoustic options that also delight the eyes. “Until now, there’s been a trade-off in ceiling design,” he states. “If designers needed a ceiling that both absorbed and blocked sound, using a specialty product like wood or metal has been out of the question. Now, it is possible to align great sight and great sound. Acoustics, meet aesthetics.”

Plenty of Ceiling Panel Choices

WoodWorks ceiling panels with Total Acoustics performance now include WoodWorks Tegular, WoodWorks Grille Tegular, and WoodWorks Channeled Tegular. MetalWorks ceiling panels with Total Acoustics performance include MetalWorks Tegular, MetalWorks Tin, MetalWorks Mesh, and MetalWorks 3D.

To make it easier to specify the right ceiling for a space, both metal and wood Total Acoustics panels are rated as Good, Better, and Best based on their combination 
of sound absorption as denoted by their Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) and sound blocking as denoted by their Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC).  

The new additions join a family of Armstrong product lines that already feature a wide variety of ceiling panels with Total Acoustics performance, including Ultima®, Calla®, Lyra®, Cirrus®, Fine Fissured™, Mesa™, Canyon®, School Zone®, and Georgian™.
