Echofade Acoustic Baffles

Manufacturing

Hit and miss Solid timber Echofade baffles or slats are manufactured to a 44mm x 32mm finished size. The timber slats are then pre-assembled in manageable sized panels via a secret fixing system on to split battens to ensure an accurate and rapid fit once site is ready for installation.
