Perfecto Micro
Perfecto Micro is a sound absorbing wood panel that consists of a 0.5mm diameter micro-perforated veneer finish. The tiny perforations yield an NRC up to 0.90 and are imperceptible at a distance of just a few feet. Perfecto Micro panels are made to customer-specified dimensions and offered in wood veneer, painted, or laminate finishes. Perfecto Micro is typically mounted with a fiberglass (or similar) absorptive backing. Panels can be wall mounted, suspended as ceiling clouds, or integrated into grid ceilings. Panel cores are high recycled content, ULEF, Class A fire rated, and FSC certified.
What is the Perfecto Micro acoustical finish?
Perfecto Micro is a high-performance, micro-perforated acoustical finish designed to provide exceptional sound absorption. It is most commonly provided as a wood veneer finish that can be custom finished to match a control sample or other millwork. The micro-perforations are not visible to the eye from a distance of a few feet, appearing as a solid wood panel. Perfecto micro may also be finished as a painted or printed surface.
How does Perfecto Micro work to improve acoustics?
Perfecto Micro utilizes micro-perforation technology that enhances sound absorption while maintaining a visually appealing solid surface. The micro-perforations allow sound waves to pass through the panel, absorbing them and yielding an NRC of up to 0.90. This helps reduce unwanted noise, improve speech intelligibility, and create a balanced sound environment.
What are the benefits of using Perfecto Micro in my space?
Perfecto Micro provides several key benefits:
- Superior sound quality by reducing echoes and reverberation
- Aesthetic appeal with the appearance of solid wood.
- Customization options to fit various interior designs
- Durable construction for long-lasting acoustic performance
How is Perfecto Micro different from other acoustic panels?
Historically, acoustical wood panels utilized large holes or grooves to allow sound to pas through the panels and be absorbed by a backing layer of fiberglass or mineral wool. Perfecto micro’s use of microperforations creates the appearance of a solid wood panel that is highly acoustically absorptive. The panels are crafted by expert millworkers and can be fabricated with any commercially available veneer and finished or stained to any specification.
Can I customize Perfecto Micro for my specific needs?
Yes! Perfecto Micro is fully customizable. You can select the size, finish, wood species, and color to align with your space’s design while maintaining excellent acoustic performance. Perfecto Micro is offered in panels or planks. This flexibility makes it a versatile option for both commercial and residential projects, ensuring that acoustical needs and aesthetic preferences are both met.
How do I install Perfecto Micro acoustical finishes?
Perfecto Micro is designed for easy installation. It can be mounted on walls and ceilings, and installation typically involves straightforward mounting with minimal tools. Installation with cleats or z-clips are common as well as finish nails or turning clips are possible.
Is Perfecto Micro suitable for all types of spaces?
Perfecto Micro is an ideal choice for various interior spaces where room acoustics are paramount including offices, conference rooms, restaurants and private dining rooms, home theaters, lecture halls and auditoriums, lobbies, board rooms, and classrooms.
How long will Perfecto Micro last?
Perfecto Micro is designed for durability, providing long-lasting acoustic benefits with proper care. The materials used are resistant to wear and tear, and with regular maintenance, it will retain both its acoustic properties and visual appeal for many years.
