Kvadrat Soft Cells Soft Cells - the original version - rely on two layers of tensioned textile to control sound. Typically, this version offers Class-C sound absorption. At a glance The patented aluminium frame has a hidden tensioning mechanism, which ensures that the covering textile stays perfectly taut Thanks to the tensioning mechanism, the textile covering is unaffected by changes in temperature and humidity Suitable for all kinds of interior The textile tension of each frame can be individually adjusted Easy to mount on walls and ceilings - at any angle Can be manufactured in large sizes Corner insert prevents folds and creases Selection of eight standard fabric coverings, offering a total of 267 different colours Can easily be taken down, reassembled and reupholstered to meet changing requirements. Optimum coverage of the 1000-Hz frequency range, Class C sound absorber All Soft Cells systems installed by our Certified White-Glove Technicians are covered by a 10-year technical guarantee The Soft Cells specialists and architectural support work closely with the architects in developingcustomised solutions
Technical data Applications Interior walls and ceilings Structural form Single-sided, double-layer tensioned textile, air cavity 18 mm Dimensions From 200x200 mm to 2100x6000 mm, depending on choice of textile (textile width of 200 mm = maximum panel width) System depth Wall-mounted version: 55 mm from installation surface. Ceiling-mounted version with magnet: 55 mm from installation surface.
