Sustainable Acoustic Plaster: Ecological Excellence in Architecture
The Future of Environmental Acoustic Design
In an era where the built environment must account for its carbon footprint and the well-being of its occupants, Quiet Craft provides acoustic solutions that harmonise technical performance with profound ecological responsibility. Our seamless acoustic plaster systems are engineered from natural, recycled, and sustainable minerals, ensuring that your project meets the highest standards of BREEAM, LEED, and WELL certification.
Natural Acoustic plaster
The Baswa Natural acoustic panel is made of Kenaf natural fibres and has an open-pored pre-coating of recycled glass granulate. The result is a smooth, seamless acoustic ceiling that combines the best ecological properties and sustainability with excellent sound absorption in all frequency ranges.
Natural raw materials and sustainable production are top priorities at Baswa. Consequently, the Baswa Natural acoustic panel is now being developed in addition to conventional acoustic solutions. For the most part, the new panel consists of kenaf fibres. The Fibre from the family of hemp plants (Hibiscus cannabinus) was selected for various reasons. In addition to low water consumption in the growth phase, its resistance and thus the low amounts of chemical fertilizers, Kenaf absorbs CO2 at a significantly high rate. Throughout the entire production process, from the natural fibre to the finished acoustic panel, emissions of climate-damaging carbon dioxide are further reduced.
With regard to quality and environmental compatibility, the company considers that it has a responsibility, not only to be a leader in terms of sound absorption, but also to promote future-oriented, sustainable and energy-efficient solutions.
Technical Ecological Specifications
1. Recycled Material Composition
Our primary acoustic substrates are composed of up to 90% recycled mineral wool or recycled crushed glass (expanded glass granulate). By repurposing industrial by-products, we significantly reduce the embodied carbon of each installation compared to traditional synthetic alternatives.
2. Indoor Air Quality & VOC Emissions
The "Health and Wellbeing" of a space is as vital as its sound. Our plaster finishes are solvent-free and produce zero VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) emissions.
-
Breathability: The natural marble-base finish is vapour-permeable, contributing to a healthy indoor climate and preventing the growth of mould or allergens.
-
Inert Composition: Naturally resistant to bacteria and pollutants, making them suitable for healthcare and educational environments.
3. Natural Marble Finishes
The visible "skin" of our system is crafted from ultra-fine, locally sourced European marble. This provides a finish that is not only aesthetically superior but is also entirely biodegradable and chemically inert.
