SelectSound® Black Acoustic Boards are made of inorganic glass fibers with a thermosetting resin binder and formed into rigid rectangular boards that are dimensionally stable and will not shrink or warp.
SelectSound® Black Acoustic Board comes with a smooth black veil surface over a gray/black board that provides low light reflectivity. The veil additionally aids in resisting damage during installation and service. When necessary, the durable black veil facing may be cleaned by light vacuuming.
SelectSound® Black Acoustic Board provides excellent acoustical performance for multiplex theaters, sound studios and performing arts centers.
Acoustical performance of interior surfaces can generally be improved by increasing acoustical material thickness. SelectSound® Black Acoustic Boards can be specified for use in conjunction with other Owens Corning acoustical materials to provide additional performance. Owens Corning also manufactures SelectSound® Black Acoustic Blanket. This roll product is ideal for use behind fabric on theater walls, in sound studios and performing arts centers.
