Acoufelt’s 2025 Wrapped

As 2025 comes to a close, we’re reflecting on the work, momentum, and collaboration that shaped the past twelve months. This year brought new products, deeper sustainability commitments, smarter digital tools, and continued growth across our teams. Here’s a look at what defined Acoufelt’s 2025.  

Project Lapeer 

One of the most meaningful milestones for our team was the announcement of our new North American headquarters, located just a few miles from our current facility. The new space positions us to scale production, strengthen operations, and deliver greater consistency and speed for our customers. Earlier this year, the team visited the future site to see what is ahead and mark the moment together.

New Product Additions

This year, we introduced more than 110 new product designs across ceiling and wall applications. Key additions include: 

Modern hotel lobby with light stone walls and floor, a central circular reception desk, and large windows. A wavy chandelier hangs from a textured acoustic felt ceiling panel. Lush greenery decorates the back wall.

  • Woven Ceiling Frames: A reinterpretation of classic plaid patterns into bold, evenly spaced forms that integrate cleanly with ceiling lighting and mechanical systems, offered in six design options and both Premier and WoodGrain Collections for structured, open ceiling layouts.
  • Gills Ceiling Frames: Engineered with precise folds and angled geometry, Gills Ceiling Frames create a dynamic play of light and shadow, adding dimensional interest to ceilings.
  • Tessera Ceiling Tiles: Tessera features thermoformed felt that adds texture, dimension, and acoustic performance within standard T-grid systems, available in three distinct designs for versatile applications.
  • Halo Ceiling Clouds: A modular grid system with round acoustic clouds that pair performance with a clean, sculptural form, allowing flexible placement for full ceiling coverage or selective arrangements of the clouds.
  • Spine Wall Panels: Like the spine running through a body, Spine Wall Panels feature an innovative three-dimensional design, combining sound-absorbing panels with elevated patterns seamlessly layered for a striking visual effect across sixteen distinct patterns in both the Premier and WoodGrain Collections.
  • Vista Wall Tiles: Evenly arranged cubes give Vista visual depth, offered in Premier and WoodGrain finishes with uniform or two-tone options.
Milkyway Launch

Inspired by the timeless beauty of the galaxy, Milkyway was the new addition to our Premier Collection. The new color features a refined neutral palette of beige, white, and black fibers with a sophisticated heathered texture. Since its launch, Milkyway quickly became one of the most frequently sampled products, reflecting strong demand for its calm, elegant, and adaptable aesthetic.

Sustainability

In 2025, sustainability remained a core focus at Acoufelt. Products in our Premier and WoodGrain Collections continue to incorporate a minimum of 60% recycled PET material. Every square foot of our 12mm FilaSorb™ felt panels contains regenerated fibers made from more than ten 20 oz recycled bottles, helping divert a total of 31.7 million 20 oz water bottles from landfills, while delivering beautiful, functional acoustic solutions. 

Product Sample Configurator

This year, we launched the Product Sample Configurator to make custom product sample requests faster and easier. Users can select a product, choose a colorway, specify sample thickness when available, and request samples directly from the product page. The configurator also generates PDF examples that can be printed before the sample arrives. Since its launch this summer, product sample requests have increased by nearly 40%. 

Market Expansion

In 2025, our reach grew across key market segments. We strengthened our presence in education, healthcare, transportation, sports, retail, and other sectors, connecting with more firms and supporting a broader range of projects. To make our capabilities clearer, we introduced a dedicated web page that outlines the markets we serve. The page highlights three main categories: Workplace, Leisure, and Community. Each category has further examples of environments and inspiration to help designers explore what is possible.

These additions strengthened our ability to respond to customer needs, improve service across key regions, and support our long-term business objectives.
