Sound absorption for ceilings - PES ceiling

SilentDirect PES Ceiling – sound-absorbing ceiling panels available in a basic or fabric-covered finish

SilentDirect PES Ceiling is an effective and stylish ceiling sound absorber that combines high sound absorption with flexible design. The product is designed to improve acoustics in everything from offices and schools to studios, restaurants, industrial facilities, and residential spaces. The absorber is available in five sizes: 592x592mm, 800x800mm, 1000x1000mm, 1200x600mm, and 1200x900mm, all with a thickness of 50mm.

SilentDirect PES Ceiling is available in three color options with two different finishes. The white color is available as Basic with a visible needle-punched polyester surface. The gray and black colors are supplied with a custom-made, removable fabric covering in OEKO-TEX-certified acoustic fabric, which gives the absorber a softer and more exclusive look. Regardless of the design, all models are based on the same sound-absorbing core of compact needle-punched polyester that effectively reduces reverberation and disruptive sound reflections.

Create acoustic balance in all indoor environments

SilentDirect PES Ceiling is specifically designed to address sound reflections from ceilings, where echoes and reverberation are often amplified. By absorbing sound early in the room, overall acoustics are improved, and the sound environment feels calmer and more controlled.

The result is reduced stress, better speech intelligibility, and increased concentration—whether the environment is an office, a classroom, a studio, or a home. In office environments, the absorber contributes to greater comfort and focus. In schools, it improves the study environment and speech intelligibility, while in industrial facilities it reduces noise from machinery and technical equipment. In homes, SilentDirect PES Ceiling creates a more harmonious atmosphere in living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices. It is also ideal for use in restaurants, yoga studios, meeting rooms, and other environments where aesthetics and function need to work together.

Choose between basic and fabric-covered versions

SilentDirect PES Ceiling is available in two different versions to suit various types of environments and interior design styles. The white version is available as Basic, where the durable needle-punched polyester surface is visible. This version is particularly well-suited for industrial environments, technical rooms, schools, warehouses, and other settings where the focus is on function, durability, and acoustic performance.

The gray and black versions come with a custom fabric covering that envelops the absorber, creating a softer, more exclusive look. These versions are particularly popular in offices, conference rooms, hotels, restaurants, studios, and home environments where design is just as important as acoustics.

The fabric-covered version combines the same high sound-absorbing performance as the Basic version with a more furniture-like feel, making the absorber a natural part of the interior design.

Effective sound absorption in multiple formats

The 50mm-thick core of compact needle-punched polyester effectively absorbs reverberation and background noise in rooms where the ceiling is a dominant reflective surface. By reducing sound reflections, speech intelligibility is improved while overall acoustic comfort is enhanced.

The product is available in five sizes: 592x592mm, 800x800mm, 1000x1000mm, 1200x600mm, and 1200x900mm. This makes it easy to adapt the solution to the room’s size, function, and architectural conditions. The 592x592mm format is also designed for standard grid ceilings, making the product suitable for both new installations and as a replacement in existing suspended ceiling systems.

Fabric with function, comfort, and durability

The gray and black versions are covered with a durable, OEKO-TEX-certified acoustic fabric that gives the absorber a soft and exclusive look. The fabric is removable and can be gently washed at up to 40°C by hand or in a gentle machine wash cycle without spinning. It must not be bleached, tumble-dried, or mangled, but can be ironed at a low temperature up to 110°C and is approved for dry cleaning.

The washable fabric cover makes the fabric-covered versions particularly suitable for environments where hygiene is important, such as schools, healthcare and care facilities, hotels, and homes with allergy sufferers. The fabric meets the requirements of OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and REACH, ensuring it is free from harmful substances.

Environmentally friendly, safe, and hypoallergenic

SilentDirect PES Ceiling is made from 100% polyester, at least 50% of which consists of recycled material. The product is free from adhesives, chemicals, and irritating fibers, making it a safe choice for environments with high standards for health and indoor air quality.

The absorber is hypoallergenic, odorless, and mold-resistant, and is not adversely affected by humidity. It is fire-rated B-s1, d0 and CE-marked in accordance with European standards for construction products. This makes SilentDirect PES Ceiling suitable for both public and private environments where safety, sustainability, and long service life are key factors.

Easy and flexible installation

SilentDirect PES Ceiling is designed for simple and flexible installation. The absorber can be mounted flush against the ceiling or with a spacer to create an air gap that further improves sound absorption. The 592x592mm size is adapted for standard grid ceilings and works excellently both for new installations and as a replacement in existing suspended ceiling systems.

The larger formats are mounted freely using brackets, wire, screws, or adhesive, depending on the desired look and acoustic requirements. Brackets and wire systems are available as options and allow the suspension to be adapted to the room’s layout, ceiling height, and aesthetic requirements.

Customized to your needs – sizes and technical information

SilentDirect PES Ceiling is available in five sizes: 592x592mm, 800x800mm, 1000x1000mm, 1200x600mm, and 1200x900mm, all with a thickness of 50mm. The smaller size is designed for exposed ceiling structures, while the larger formats offer great flexibility for free-hanging or flush mounting.

The absorber features a uniform and durable construction with high sound absorption capacity and offers a long-term solution for anyone seeking to improve acoustics in a professional, sustainable, and aesthetically pleasing manner.

Installation Options

SilentDirect PES Ceiling offers several mounting options that make installation simple and adaptable.

No mounting accessories included
No mounting accessories are included, giving you the freedom to use your own mounting solution, such as adhesive, screws, or another method.

With mounting brackets
When installing with mounting brackets, 4 mounting brackets are included for the sizes 592x592mm, 800x800mm, and 1000x1000mm, as well as 6 mounting brackets for other sizes. Choose between mounting brackets – 0 mm spacing for ceiling-level installation or mounting brackets – 50 mm spacing, which creates a 50 mm air gap for increased sound absorption.

With wire suspension
For wire suspension, a wire kit designed for stable suspension is included. Each kit contains a coil spring, a wire with an eye, and a carabiner with an adjustable clamp. Ceiling hooks are not included and must be selected based on the specific ceiling construction.

What is the difference between mounting brackets – 0 mm thickness and mounting brackets – 50 mm spacing?

Mounting brackets – 0 mm thickness mount the absorber directly to the ceiling and protrude approximately 50 mm, creating a discreet, flush-with-the-ceiling appearance.

Mounting brackets – 50mm spacing create an air gap of approximately 50mm between the ceiling and the sound absorber, resulting in a total projection of approximately 100mm. The air gap improves sound absorption, particularly in rooms with high ceilings or where maximum acoustic performance is desired.

In summary, mounting brackets – 50 mm spacing provide the best acoustic performance, while mounting brackets – 0 mm spacing are the best choice when a more discreet installation is prioritized.
