Acoustic Panel and Sound Masking Materials in Open-Plan Offices — household safety profile
Low riskOpen-plan offices use acoustic treatments to manage noise: ceiling panels (mineral fiber or fiberglass — may release fibers when disturbed), acoustic wall panels (recycled PET felt, fiberglass wrapped in fabric, melamine foam), spray-applied acoustic treatments (cellulose or mineral fiber with adhesive binder — off-gasses during application), and electronic sound masking systems (speakers emitting broadband noise — no chemical concern).

Open-plan offices use acoustic treatments to manage noise: ceiling panels (mineral fiber or fiberglass — may release fibers when disturbed), acoustic wall panels (recycled PET felt, fiberglass wrapped in fabric, melamine foam), spray-applied acoustic treatments (cellulose or mineral fiber with adhesive binder — off-gasses during application), and electronic sound masking systems (speakers emitting broadband noise — no chemical concern). Fiberglass acoustic ceiling tiles: synthetic vitreous fibers classified IARC Group 3 (not classifiable as carcinogenic), but fiber release during installation, maintenance, or disturbance can cause skin, eye, and respiratory irritation. Recycled PET acoustic panels (FilzFelt, BuzziSpace): made from recycled plastic bottles — no fiber release, no formaldehyde, increasingly popular.
