Are Acoustic Wood Panels Truly Eco-Friendly?
At Sontext, we believe that sustainability and acoustic performance should go hand in hand. Our
Murano Acoustic Wood Panels
exemplify this philosophy, offering not just superior sound absorption but also a commitment to environmental responsibility.
Certified Green Materials
Murano panels are crafted using Medium-Density Fibreboard (MDF) that is both FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) certified
and rated E0 for minimal formaldehyde emissions. This ensures the wood comes from responsibly managed forests and
contributes to healthier indoor air quality. Additionally, these panels have been rigorously tested to meet the
Building Code of Australia's fire safety standards.
Introducing ECOBOARD: A Step Further in Sustainability
We're proud to introduce ECOBOARD, our latest innovation in eco-friendly acoustic solutions. This substrate contains
zero formaldehyde and has achieved top-tier environmental ratings, including Group 1 fire classification in Australia and
Class A in the United States. ECOBOARD is available across all standard Murano patterns and veneer finishes, allowing you to
maintain aesthetic appeal while making an environmentally conscious choice.
Transparency and Compliance
We understand the importance of verified sustainability claims. That's why we provide comprehensive documentation, including:
- FSC® Chain of Custody certificates
- Fire test results
- Environmental compliance reports
Our commitment to transparency ensures that you can specify Murano panels with confidence, knowing they meet stringent green building
standards such as LEED and Green Star.
