FabTec™ Acoustical Foam

FabTec™ sound absorption panels are a combination of FireFlex Class 1 Melamine acoustical foam faced with a non-woven fabric. These panels are very lightweight and weigh approximately two pounds per panel. They can be easily installed using a standard foam construction adhesive.

FabTec is versatile for use where field cuts are required. Panels can be trimmed using an electric carving knife. FabTec can also be useful when a material is needed to apply to a curved surface.

The fabric-facing is Velcro® compatible and is durable enough to stand up to heavy use. This material resists rot, mold and mildew and will not fray or ravel.
