BAUX – Acoustic Pulp
100% bio-based acoustical panels, combine sound absorption performance, safety and sustainability
Over the past century, fossil based materials have become the norm and standard for acoustical products in the interior design and building industries.
BAUX Acoustic Pulp is made out of sustainably harvested Swedish fir and pine trees. Recycled water. Non-GMO wheat bran. Potato starch. Plant-derived wax. Citrus fruit peels. Zero chemicals. Once the dried surface is then nano-perforated using an advanced laser technique for enhanced sound absorption.
This patented, 100% bio-based material pushes the acoustic properties of cellulosic materials to a new level.
Design inspired by origami folding paper. The three pattern designs come in three different colors. Adding paint would have compromised our vision of creating a 100% bio-based product. Instead, with BAUX Acoustic Pulp, color is achieved using different percentages of wheat bran—0, 5 and 30%.
