| |JULY 202219biodiesel firm has developed a biodegradable mycelium-based acoustic panel system named FORESTA. The FORESTA system is made up of mycelium-based acoustic panels, which are the vegetative tissue of fungi. Each module is supported by a frame made of local beech wood and is produced by mushroom cultures on a substrate made of agricultural wastes like hemp chives and textile remnants.Recycled PET InsulationPET Polyester Acoustic Panels are an acoustically absorbent panel made from 100 percent PET plastic with a felt-like finish. These Polyester Acoustic Panels are Porous in nature which makes them ideally suitable for Acoustic Treatment, sound absorption, Heat and thermal insulation. Polyester Acoustic Panels are sound absorbing panels developed with environmental friendliness in mind. The panels are made up of 100 percent polyester, 60 percent recycled fiber, and are 100 percent recyclable. Panels offer many environmental advantages and are an honest alternative to a standard fabric wrapped fiberglass panel. Characteristics of polyester fiber acoustic panels include light weight & flexibility, very high tension, dimension maintenance even in high humidity & temperature, conservation of color sunlight, unaffected surface on wetting, and simply expandability. Other features of polyester acoustic panels include formaldehyde-free, no binding agents, odorless and dust-free, no risk of skin irritation or respiratory problem, PET-recycled content, and 100 percent recyclable. For example - Solace Acoustic, has developed a PET insulation that is made up of 100 percent pure polyester fiber, and 60 percent recycled fiber. These acoustic insulations are non-irritating, nontoxic, and nonallergic so one is completely safe to touch. PET Acoustics is another company providing PET acoustic insulations to its clients. Their PET acoustics board is made from partially recycled polyester fibers, more than 60 percent of which are recovered from PET bottles by the PET acoustic fiber company.What's Next?Increasing noise pollution in urban cities has been a developing challenge that calls for urgent solutions. Acoustic panels are definitely an effective way of meeting this daunting problem. Moreover, the recent transit of the acoustic industry towards sustainable innovations will help the industry to evolve as a go to solution for the clients. Along with eco-efficient Insulation and recycled PET Insulations, the industry is working to develop new innovative solutions that will help the industry to evolve into a robust position. THE INDUSTRY IS ALSO EVOLVING IN TERMS OF TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION AND MULTIPLE INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS ARE ALSO HITTING THE MARKETS THAT ARE EXPECTED TO TRANSFORM THE ACOUSTIC INSULATION INDUSTRY IN THE COMING YEARS
