Acoustic panels that meet US UL standards: Fire protection and acoustic performance meet dual standards.


Our company sets a new global benchmark for building acoustic safety.

In the building materials industry, meeting both safety and performance standards remains a core requirement for global clients. Especially in the US and Southeast Asian markets, as acoustic and fire safety requirements for commercial spaces, public buildings, and residential projects continue to escalate, acoustic panels that meet both international standards and local requirements have become a must-have in project procurement.

As a professional supplier with many years of experience in the building materials export market, our company, leveraging our deep understanding of global market standards, has successfully launched high-quality acoustic panels that meet US UL fire protection standards. These panels achieve breakthroughs in both fire protection and acoustic performance, providing customers in the US, Southeast Asia, and globally with architectural acoustic solutions that combine safety and comfort.

 

1. UL Standard Certification: A "Safe Pass" for US Market Access

As a globally recognized authority in fire safety certification, the US Underwriters Laboratories (UL) standard rigorously covers core indicators such as material combustion performance, smoke diffusion rate, and heat release rate, making it a "hard barrier" for products entering the US market. Our sound-absorbing panels have undergone multiple rounds of rigorous testing at UL's official laboratories, ultimately achieving the UL 94 V-0 flame retardancy rating and UL 723 surface burning test, demonstrating excellent performance in key safety indicators:

· Low smoke and low toxicity: During combustion, the smoke density is ≤0.15 (according to ASTM E662), and the amount of toxic gas released is far below the limit set by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Even in fire scenarios, this provides valuable time for evacuation, making it particularly suitable for crowded places such as shopping malls, schools, and hospitals.

· High-temperature stability: The panel structure exhibits no deformation or cracking in extreme temperatures ranging from -40°C to 80°C, meeting the climate requirements of both the cold northern and hot southern regions of the United States.

 

For Southeast Asian customers, UL standards are also highly valuable references – the building codes of some countries in the region, such as Singapore and Malaysia, explicitly reference UL's testing system. Choosing sound-absorbing panels that meet UL standards can effectively reduce project acceptance risks and enhance project quality recognition.

2.Upgraded Acoustic Performance: From "Noise Reduction" to "Customized Sound Field"

In addition to fire safety, acoustic performance is the core value of sound-absorbing panels. While meeting UL fire standards, we achieve a comprehensive upgrade in acoustic performance through optimized material formulations and innovative structural design:

· High Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC): Conventional products achieve an NRC of 0.8-1.0 (tested according to ASTM C423), effectively absorbing high- and mid-frequency noise and are suitable for offices, conference rooms, restaurants, and other settings. For spaces with extremely stringent acoustic requirements, such as theaters and recording studios, we offer customized products with an NRC of 1.0 or higher, achieving precise noise reduction and sound field optimization.

· Wide Frequency Absorption Range: Utilizing a "porous substrate + composite damping layer" structure, these panels not only absorb mainstream noise frequencies from 250-2000Hz but also achieve over 30% absorption efficiency for low-frequency noise (such as air conditioning units and elevator operating noise), resolving the pain point of traditional sound-absorbing panels that only reduce high frequencies but not low frequencies.

Environmentally friendly and odorless: All products meet US LEED green building certification and Southeast Asian environmental standards, with formaldehyde emissions ≤ 0.02mg/m³ (much lower than the US CARB Level 2 standard of 0.05mg/m³). No ventilation is required after installation and they can be put into use directly, making them particularly suitable for environmentally stringent healthcare and educational projects.

 

3.Full-scenario Adaptability: Meeting the Diverse Needs of the US and Southeast Asian Markets

From commercial complexes and industrial plants common in the US market to mainstream hotels and residential projects in Southeast Asia, our UL-compliant sound-absorbing panels offer adaptable solutions:

 

Material and Appearance Customization: We offer a variety of base materials, including mineral wool, glass wool, and polyester fiber. Customizable surface finishes include wood grain, stone grain, and solid colors to complement diverse architectural styles—from the minimalist aesthetic of modern US commercial spaces to the natural tropical vibes of Southeast Asian hotels. · Optimized Installation Ease: Targeting the standardized work requirements of US construction teams, we offer a modular design, increasing installation efficiency by 40%. For the limited construction conditions in parts of Southeast Asia, we provide lightweight products and simple installation tools to reduce on-site installation challenges.

After-Sales and Certification Support: We provide customers with a complete UL certification report, test data reports, and the necessary documents for local customs clearance. We also offer a 5-year product warranty. With after-sales contact points in Los Angeles, USA, and Singapore, we can quickly respond to customers' technical inquiries and after-sales needs.

 

4. Choosing Us: More Than Just "Meeting Standards," More Than "Confidence"

As a veteran supplier of building materials for foreign trade, our core competitiveness lies in "global standards + localized service." With over 10 years of experience serving the US and Southeast Asian markets, we are familiar with product certification requirements, logistics timelines, and purchasing preferences in both regions. Our ISO 9001-certified factory boasts a monthly production capacity of 50,000 square meters, enabling us to meet the volume orders required for large projects with a minimum delivery time of just 7-10 days.

 

Our UL-standard acoustic panels have been successfully implemented in numerous landmark projects, including the Manhattan Business Center in New York, the Marina Bay Hotel in Singapore, and the Kuala Lumpur Education Park in Malaysia, earning unanimous customer recognition.
