RefereNCE: LIGNO® ACOUSTIC in office construction, Munich (DE)
Application example of sound-absorbing timber acoustic panels at the HEADS New Generation Workspace. The Rock Capital Group is creating the office of the future as an inspiring “place to be”.
The HEADS New Generation Workspace combines forward-looking office architecture by Ippolito Fleitz Group with a consistently sustainable approach for a healthy working environment. Large-format oak acoustic panels define the atrium wall lining and, thanks to highly efficient sound absorption, ensure maximum comfort and quality of stay. The result is a modern “place to be” that consistently puts user wellbeing at the centre—through a natural, low-emission aesthetic and acoustic precision.

Various wood species are available for the visible layer. For quality reasons, individual wood species cannot be configured for all profiles; for technical reasons, surface treatments are excluded for some wood species.
Wood type
_EI Oak knotless
Profile
The visible layer is profiled with joints. The code for profiling indicates in millimetres: Element width, strip width (rounded, from/to if applicable) and joint width (rounded) as well as a letter identification for variants, e.g. with chamfered strip edges or with additional height gradation.Note: Some profiles indirectly cause exclusions for other configuration options.

Profile
_625-12n25-4 Slat profile "nature"
Structure
The face is subjected to a brushing _gb as standard, which produces a stronger or weaker structure depending on the type of wood and makes the surface less sensitive to scratches. Alternatively, a smooth sanding _gs can be carried out, or on request a bandsaw cut _grimitated.
Structure
_gb gebürstet
Treatment
Depending on the type of wood, the optional application of a surface treatment is possible ex works. Individual colour finishes are always sampled for coordination. For elements in individual lengths, colour treatment is limited to max. 5 m length.
Treatment
_bh-t Oil transparent
Fire behaviour
Few configurations can be configured with a flame-retardant surface. This may result in a modified element structure, greater thickness or the need for measures in the area of the substructure.
Fire behaviour
_D-s1-d0 Normal flammable surface
Room acoustics
If the soffit of the element is to have a good sound-absorbing effect, the penultimate layer is configured as absorber _a50g. Otherwise, this layer is configured as a solid wood layer _a0.
Room acoustics
_a70g 70 % Absorber
