Yesterday at Techtextil, the newly merged Ahlstrom-Munksjo presented a range of textile-based solutions for applications ranging from construction to filtration to home products to food packaging. Among these products were the company's unique range of nonwoven fleece for ceiling panels using wetlaid technology. Using the expertise developed in the implementation and choice of natural and synthetic fibers, Ahlstrom-Munksjo can create high performance solutions, engineered to meet its customers' key requirements for acoustic ceilings—sound absorbency and fire reaction.

The fleece is simply cut and glued onto the back of panels without the need for any extra matting. The fleece then works with a perforated celining to reduce noise and provide acoustic comfort.
