• How Many Acoustic Panels Do I Need to Soundproof a Room? Jul 14, 2025
    If you're looking to reduce noise in your space, whether for a home office, recording studio, or commercial setting, acoustic panels are an excellent solution. But one of the most common questions we hear is:“How many acoustic panels do I need to soundproof a room?” At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd.( Leeyin ) , we specialize in high-performance wooden slat acoustic panels, and we’re here to help you make the right decision for your acoustic project. 🎯 Understanding the Purpose of Acoustic Panels Before calculating quantity, it's essential to understand that acoustic panels absorb sound—they don’t completely block it like traditional soundproofing materials. They’re primarily used to: Minimize echo and reverberation Improve sound clarity Reduce noise levels within a room For full soundproofing, a combination of materials (mass-loaded barriers, insulation, and sealing gaps) may be required. However, strategically placing acoustic panels significantly improves perceived sound quality and reduces noise transmission. 📏 How to Calculate the Right Number of Acoustic Panels Here’s a basic step-by-step guide: 1. Measure the Room Size Determine the length × width × height of your room to get the total cubic space. 2. Calculate Wall Surface Area Focus on the four walls (and ceiling if needed). Remove doors/windows from your calculation. 3. Determine Coverage Percentage Depending on the purpose, typical coverage recommendations are: Application Coverage Area Needed Basic Echo Control 10–20% Home Office or Meeting Room 20–30% Recording Studio or Podcast 30–50% Professional Soundproofing 50–70% or more   4. Standard Panel Size Reference At Liyin Acoustics, our standard wood slat acoustic panel is typically: Width: 600 mm (23.6") Height: 2400 mm (94.5") Coverage Area per Panel: ~1.44 m² For example:If you want to cover 12 m² of wall space, you would need approximately 8–9 panels. 🧠 Expert Tip: Placement Is Just as Important Rather than covering 100% of the walls, strategic placement helps maximize performance: First reflection points (side walls) Back wall and front wall (behind speakers or workspace) Ceiling if echo is still present 🪵 Why Choose Liyin Acoustic Panels?

  • Should Acoustic Panels Be on Walls or Ceilings? Jul 14, 2025
    When it comes to improving sound quality in a room—whether it’s an office, studio, home theater, or commercial space—acoustic panels are an essential solution. But one of the most common questions we hear is:“Should acoustic panels go on the walls or the ceiling?” The short answer? Both can be effective depending on your acoustic goals. In this blog post, we’ll explore the differences, benefits, and ideal placements of acoustic panels—especially our signature wood slat acoustic panels from Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. ✅ Wall-Mounted Acoustic Panels 📌 Why Install Acoustic Panels on Walls? Primary reflection points: Walls are often the first surfaces where sound waves bounce, creating echoes and muddying audio clarity. Improved speech intelligibility: Reducing side wall reflections makes spoken words more crisp and clear—essential in offices and meeting rooms. Ideal for small to medium-sized rooms: Most sound reflections occur horizontally in typical spaces. ✔ Best Placement on Walls: At ear level in seating positions Behind or beside speakers On opposite walls for balanced absorption ✅ Ceiling-Mounted Acoustic Panels 📌 Why Install Acoustic Panels on Ceilings? Tackling vertical reflections: Ceilings reflect sound waves just like walls, especially in large rooms with high ceilings. Open spaces benefit most: Conference rooms, restaurants, and atriums often require overhead absorption to reduce ambient noise. Better low-frequency control: Hanging baffles or ceiling clouds can improve low-end absorption and reduce flutter echo. ✔ Best Ceiling Applications: Above central seating areas Suspended panels (clouds) for visual effect + sound control In open-plan offices or multi-functional public spaces 🪵 Why Choose Liyin’s Wood Slat Acoustic Panels? At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd.( Leeyin ) , we design and manufacture premium wood slat acoustic panels with PET backing—ideal for both wall and ceiling installations. 💼 Our Core Advantages: 🔧 Versatile Application – Easily mounted on walls or ceilings with screws, glue, or mounting rails 🌿 Eco-Friendly Materials – Made with PET felt, E0 MDF, and FSC-certified wood veneer 🔥 Fire-Rated & Formaldehyde-Free – Meets international safety standards 🏢 20,000 m² Production Facility – Backed by modern equipment and efficient logistics 🌍 Global B2B Supplier – Exported to Europe, North America, Southeast Asia, and more 🛠️ OEM/ODM Services – Custom sizes, colors, and finishes for your project needs Whether you're treating a recording studio wall or creating a stylish sound-absorbing ceiling feature in a hotel lobby, our acoustic panels are engineered for aesthetics and performance. 🎯 Final Takeaway: Walls, Ceilings… or Both? The best acoustic treatment strategy considers both surfaces. Start with walls for first reflections, then consider ceilings for additional control—especially in large or open rooms.   Liyin Acoustics panels are engineered to perform beautifully on either surface, allowing you to create an environment that both sounds and looks exceptional.  
  • Is Acoustic Caulk Worth It? Jul 04, 2025
    Everything You Need to Know for Better Soundproofing When planning a soundproofing or acoustic treatment project—especially for studios, offices, or commercial interiors—you’ve likely heard about acoustic caulk. But is it really worth the investment? At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. ( Leeyin ) , we specialize in high-performance wood slat acoustic panels and understand the importance of every element in achieving effective sound control. Let’s explore whether acoustic caulk is a must-have, and how it fits within your overall soundproofing strategy. ✅ What Is Acoustic Caulk? Acoustic caulk—also known as acoustic sealant—is a flexible, sound-dampening material used to seal gaps, cracks, and seams where sound might leak through. Unlike traditional caulk, acoustic sealants remain flexible and non-hardening over time, preventing sound vibrations from transferring through structural gaps. 🎯 Does Acoustic Caulk Really Work? Yes—when used correctly, acoustic caulk plays a crucial role in soundproofing by: Sealing air gaps between wall panels, doors, windows, and outlets Preventing sound leakage through seams and joints Enhancing the effectiveness of soundproofing materials like acoustic panels and insulation It won’t block sound by itself—but it significantly improves the overall performance of your acoustic treatment. 💡 Where Should You Apply Acoustic Caulk? For maximum effect, apply acoustic caulk in: Gaps between walls and floors Around window frames and door trims Along baseboards and wall panel joints Around electrical outlets and switch boxes Edges of acoustic panel installations Pairing caulk with high-quality acoustic materials—like our PET-backed wooden slat panels—creates a comprehensive sound barrier. 💰 Is Acoustic Caulk Worth the Cost? Absolutely—and here’s why: Affordable price point: Compared to heavy-duty soundproofing materials, acoustic caulk is low cost High ROI: A tube of caulk may cost under $20 but could drastically improve noise isolation Essential for detailed work: Especially in recording studios, home theaters, and conference rooms, tiny gaps can ruin an otherwise perfect acoustic setup 🌿 A Perfect Match with Sustainable Acoustic Panels At Liyin Acoustics, we’re committed to delivering high-performance eco-friendly acoustic solutions: PET felt backing made from recycled materials E0-grade MDF (low formaldehyde emission) FSC-certified wood for sustainable sourcing NRC ratings up to 0.85+ for outstanding acoustic performance When installing our wooden slat acoustic panels, using acoustic caulk helps seal edges and maximize acoustic insulation, especially in professional spaces. 🔧 Easy to Install with Liyin Panels   All Liyin acoustic panels are designed for quick, user-friendly installation. Combine our panels with acoustic caulk, adhesive glue, or screw mounting systems for strong, durable, and clean results.
  • What Are the Disadvantages of Acoustic Wall Panels? Jul 04, 2025
    Acoustic wall panels have become a go-to solution for reducing echo, improving sound quality, and enhancing interior aesthetics in both residential and commercial spaces. While the benefits of acoustic panels — especially wood slat acoustic panels — are widely recognized, it’s also important to understand their limitations. At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. ( Leeyin ) , we believe in providing full transparency about our products. As a leading manufacturer and exporter of wood slat acoustic panels in China, we are committed to delivering high-quality, eco-friendly acoustic solutions with honest insights. 🔍 Common Disadvantages of Acoustic Wall Panels 1. Limited Soundproofing Capability Acoustic panels absorb sound, but they do not fully block sound from traveling between rooms. If you're aiming for complete sound isolation (e.g., to stop noise from entering or leaving a space), you’ll need additional soundproofing materials such as mass-loaded vinyl, double-layered drywall, or insulation. 💡 Tip from Liyin: Our PET-backed wood slat panels are excellent at reducing echo and reverberation, but we always advise clients to combine them with soundproofing strategies for full isolation. 2. Higher Initial Cost for Quality Panels High-performance acoustic panels made with sustainable materials like E0 MDF and recycled PET felt can cost more than low-quality foam alternatives. However, they offer better durability, safety, and aesthetic value. 💡 Why Choose Liyin: As a direct manufacturer with a 20,000 m² facility, we provide factory-direct pricing, custom finishes, and OEM/ODM services to ensure you get premium value without inflated costs. 3. Installation May Require Planning For optimal acoustic performance, panel placement matters. Installing acoustic panels incorrectly — for example, placing them in random spots — may result in limited effectiveness. Additionally, installation on certain surfaces (e.g., concrete or glass) may require professional tools or adhesives. 💡 Liyin Solution: Our panels are designed for easy installation, whether you prefer glue, screws, or mounting systems. Our team also provides guidance on best practices for placement. 4. Wall Coverage Is Often Partial Some users expect complete acoustic transformation with minimal panel coverage. In reality, you may need to treat 20–40% of wall surfaces for noticeable results, especially in larger or more echo-prone rooms. 💡 Expert Tip: Liyin offers acoustic design support for determining the ideal panel quantity and layout based on your room size and purpose. 5. Not Always Suitable for Humid Environments Acoustic panels made with MDF may not be ideal for areas with excessive moisture (e.g., bathrooms or outdoor spaces), as long-term humidity exposure can affect the integrity of the wood core. 💡 Our Material Choice: We use E0-grade MDF combined with PET felt, ensuring low formaldehyde emissions and enhanced structural stability. For special projects, we can also offer custom water-resistant solutions. 🎯 Why These Disadvantages Shouldn’t Deter You   While there are some limitations, the advantages of acoustic wall panels far outweigh the drawbacks — especially when you choose a trusted supplier like Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. With the right planning and quality materials, you can create a space that is both acoustically optimized and visually stunning.
  • How Do You Stick Acoustic Panels to the Wall? Jun 04, 2025
    A Practical Guide by Liyin Acoustics When it comes to improving the acoustic comfort and aesthetics of a space, acoustic wall panels are one of the most effective solutions. Whether you're outfitting a modern office, a home theater, or a commercial venue, knowing how to stick acoustic panels to the wall properly is key to achieving both sound control and visual appeal. At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. (Leeyin) , we specialize in wood slat acoustic panels with PET felt backing. As a leading manufacturer and exporter in China, we ensure high-performance, installation-friendly acoustic products trusted by clients worldwide. ✅ What You’ll Need Before Installation Before you begin, gather the following tools and materials: High-strength construction adhesive (solvent-free recommended) Level and measuring tape Pencil or chalk for marking Caulking gun (for adhesive) Double-sided tape (optional for temporary positioning) Screws and wall plugs (optional for extra support) 🔧 Step-by-Step: How to Stick Acoustic Panels to the Wall 1. Prepare the Wall Surface Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and flat. Remove any dust, oil, or loose paint. A smooth surface ensures better adhesive bonding. 2. Mark the Panel Placement Use a level and pencil to mark the panel positions on the wall. This helps with alignment and ensures consistent spacing. 3. Apply Adhesive to the Back of the Panel Turn your wood slat acoustic panel over and apply strong construction adhesive in a zigzag pattern across the PET felt backing. For larger panels, apply adhesive in horizontal lines spaced about 10–15 cm apart. 💡 Tip from Liyin: Our PET-backed acoustic panels are designed for strong adhesion. The felt’s texture allows the glue to grip firmly and hold over time. 4. Press Panel Firmly Against the Wall Carefully align the panel with your markings and press it into place. Apply even pressure across the entire surface to ensure contact between the adhesive and the wall. 5. Use Screws or Mounting Strips for Extra Security (Optional) In high-traffic areas or for added durability, you can use screws through the slats into the wall studs. Our panels are engineered to accept both adhesive and mechanical fasteners without damage. 🔩 Can Acoustic Panels Be Removed Easily? Yes. If you use adhesive, removing panels may damage the paint or drywall. However, double-sided mounting tape or removable adhesive solutions can make future repositioning easier.
