Ideal companions to ceiling mount lit and unlit acoustic solutions
Chicago – May 15, 2024
With TruTile™, Focal Point quite literally brings inspiration and creativity to specifiers’ fingertips. The new collection of modular acoustic wall tiles expands the company’s ever-growing portfolio of acoustic solutions from ceilings to walls with an array of fun and modular designs, textures, and shapes that can be combined to create unique accent walls or bespoke wall art pieces. TruTile is ideal for many applications in commercial offices, and also in educational, healthcare, or hospitality environments.
“The new wall tiles answer a request we’ve been getting from specifiers over and over again,” mentions Dan Kohnen, Architectural Systems’ Business Leader for Focal Point. “Designers were looking for coordinated complements to our lit and unlit, ceiling mount acoustic solutions so that they can further enhance the acoustics of a room using the large surface area offered by walls. TruTile helps create those cozy environments for users, with the added benefits of visual interest, low cost, and speed for specifiers and installers.”
With a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of 0.30, TruTile surpasses the performance of many competing products. Plus, the Designs, Textures, and Shapes provide the building blocks for a myriad of unique creations.
TruTile Designs
TruTile Designs offer seven curvaceous and linear designs intended for vertical or horizontal installation on walls. Various patterns can be created by combining Designs and playing with tile orientation.
TruTile Textures
The four TruTile Textures present deeper textural designs that capture light and the attention of the viewer. They are also intended for vertical or horizontal orientation on walls,
TruTile Shapes
The three TruTile Shapes are represented by organic shapes that fluidly nestle in various orientations, creating movement and rhythm.
The 14 new acoustic solutions are offered in Focal Point’s unique PET felt color palette, comprised of two dozen neutral to bold hues, as well as with The Naturals, wood prints that bring nature’s warmth and beauty to interiors. This ensures perfect coordination across the company’s broad portfolio of acoustic solutions.
TruTile can be used anywhere noise or reverberation control is required. One example is the Forum Collaboration Suite from Legrand AV, where Focal Point and Middle Atlantic, one of the Legrand AV brands, partnered to create an exquisite experience for hybrid work. TruTile provides a background that improves acoustics and visually enhances collaboration spaces, as exemplified by the Microsoft Teams Rooms.
To help support retrofit projects, TruTile modular acoustic wall tiles are offered with 10-Day Quickship in a limited selection of popular colorways. The PET felt used for TruTile contains up to 50% recycled plastic bottles and is Declare certified, LBC Red List Free. TruTile installs easily with construction adhesives and is field cuttable.
