Velio Acoustic Blinds

Velio Acoustic Blinds

Texaa acoustic blinds are the fruit of several innovations, and are quite unique in how they combine light occluding, thermal and acoustic qualities. Hung in front of a glazed surface, they absorb resonance, filter light and improve people’s comfort.

Performance of vertical slatted blinds positioned 100 mm from the vertical surface.

Hung in front of a glazed surface, the sound-absorbing acoustic curtains soften the light and acoustic ambience of the room.

Used to surround sub-areas, although they have no insulating effect, Texaa blinds enclose quiet areas that stimulate people to listen, for example in a media library or a story-telling space.

Texaa acoustic blinds are made with 3-mm-thick black felt, protected on both sides by our sound-transparent Aeria fabric. This unique product has acoustic, thermal and light occluding properties.

Composition and installation

Texaa Acoustic Blinds are made of 3-mm thick black felt, protected on both sides by our Aeria sound-transparent fabric. This unique product is an effective barrier for light, heat and sound.

A hanger plate is concealed in a hem at the top of each slat without any weights.

The new format of this hanger plate, an exclusive Texaa patent, locates it as close as possible to the hanging rail to cut out as much light as possible.

The blind slats are simply clipped to the runners in the rail.
