Designer Skyline Acoustic Panel - Obsidian

Techlite® Designer Skyline Acoustic Panel in Obsidian is engineered to control sound energy while enhancing spatial aesthetics. The multi-depth skyline geometry disperses sound reflections across a broad range of frequencies, reducing flutter echo and improving spatial clarity without over-deadening the room. For architects, this introduces a sculptural ceiling or wall feature; for interior designers, it delivers texture and shadow; and for sound engineers, it ensures more uniform sound distribution throughout the space. Unlike purely absorptive treatments, skyline diffusers maintain acoustic liveliness while minimizing harsh reflections—making them ideal for performance venues, studios, collaboration spaces, and high-end commercial interiors. Manufactured utilizing Basotect® Ecobalanced Melamine Foam, the panel combines lightweight construction with consistent acoustic behavior, allowing for flexible layout configurations and reliable long-term performance in interior applications. The material is Class A fire-rated per ASTM E 84, supporting code compliance in demanding interior environments. In addition, Basotect® Ecobalanced Melamine Foam contributes to sustainable design strategies and may support LEED credits related to low-emitting materials and environmental product transparency. The result is a solution that balances acoustic precision, safety, and environmental responsibility within a cohesive design system. Obsidian™ Coloration & Visual Character Obsidian™ is a deep, dark charcoal acoustic foam with subtle blue undertones. Depending on lighting conditions, it can range from a rich charcoal gray to a dark navy hue—and when installed in high ceilings or low-light environments, it presents as visually black. The result is an acoustic material that integrates seamlessly into contemporary architecture while delivering the performance Techlite® is known for. For applications requiring an ultimate, rich black appearance, Obsidian™ panels may be coated utilizing Techlite®’s proprietary paint system.
