Australian Interior Manufacturer Introduces Acoustic Portable Partition Panels and Surface-mountable Tiles

Australian interior finishes manufacturer, Baresque, announces the North American launch of Zintra Acoustic Concertina and Zintra on Zintra Tiles, two new products for office environments, according to Baresque Executive Director Angus Blaiklock.

The two products offer sound-reduction in combination with office space division and freeform aesthetic sound abatement for walls.

Zintra Acoustic Concertina screens are a take on Baresque’s Zintra ½ inch Acoustic Panel. Concertina employs plain or Zintra on Zintra panels connected with flexible straps to form a lightweight, portable partition. Also available with a stand, Concertina requires no assembly and can be folded up for storage. The portable partition panels are available in 16 standard colors.

Zintra on Zintra Tiles provide an interior designer with creative options for both wall décor and sound abatement. These surface-mountable tiles provide freeform acoustic and aesthetic solutions for walls, ceilings and glass partitions, and can be arranged as individual shapes, clusters or arrays. The tiles, which are shipped in groups of eight, can be installed onto substrates with adhesive and can also be affixed with magnets and suction cups for easy removal and redesign. Zintra on Zintra Tiles are available in seven standard designs in nominal sizes of 24 inch x 24 inch x 1 inch (with 4 inch x 4 inch magnet wall plate, if specified), providing many design options.

Both Zintra Acoustic Concertina and Zintra on Zintra Tiles achieve a noise reduction coefficient of 0.45-1.0, depending upon positioning, and a Class A Flame Spread (in accordance with ASTM-E84).
