Designed for
Timeless Interiors
WDWL® Acoustic Wood Wool panels are where natural simplicity meets refined design. Crafted from wood fibre and cement, they offer not just superior sound absorption and thermal insulation, but a luxury surface finish that speaks to modern architectural sensibilities. The warmth of wood, bonded with the strength and fire resistance of cement, creates a panel that is as functional as it is beautiful.
Certified Configurations,
Class A Absorption
More than 20 certified WDWL® configurations have achieved Absorption Class A in reverberation chamber tests, meaning they absorb 90 to 100% of incident sound energy. The configurations below allow Kenya consultants, architects, and acousticians to select the right combination of panel depth, ceiling height, and finish to meet both technical and aesthetic project goals.
| Configuration | Aw | Class | H (mm) | 125 Hz | 250 Hz | 500 Hz | 1000 Hz | 2000 Hz | 4000 Hz |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WDWL Panel 15 mm — direct fix | 0.30 | D | 15 | 0.05 | 0.10 | 0.20 | 0.35 | 0.60 | 0.80 |
| WDWL Panel 25 mm — direct fix | 0.40 | D | 25 | 0.05 | 0.20 | 0.35 | 0.55 | 0.90 | 0.75 |
| WDWL Barcode 35 mm — direct fix | 0.45 | D | 35 | 0.10 | 0.20 | 0.40 | 0.70 | 0.80 | 0.85 |
| WDWL 25 mm + 20 mm mineral wool + 5 mm gap | 0.75 | C | 50 | 0.15 | 0.45 | 0.90 | 1.00 | 0.90 | 0.95 |
| WDWL 25 mm + 50 mm mineral wool — direct fix | 1.00 | A | 75 | 0.30 | 0.85 | 1.00 | 0.95 | 0.95 | 1.00 |
| WDWL 25 mm + 30 mm mineral wool + 70 mm gap | 0.90 | A | 125 | 0.35 | 0.70 | 1.00 | 0.90 | 0.80 | 0.90 |
| Mineral wool 40 mm + 85 mm air gap (suspended) | 1.00 | A | 200 | 0.55 | 0.95 | 1.00 | 1.00 | 0.95 | 1.00 |
Values tested per EN ISO 354 / EN ISO 11654. Full acoustic data sheet and reverberation chamber test reports available for Kenya project submission.
One Panel, Eight Surface Languages
Every space demands a surface treatment that complements its architecture while preserving acoustic performance. Each Mirage groove pattern is CNC routed into the WDWL® panel face — 600 × 1200 mm format — without compromising the Class A absorption rating of the underlying assembly.
Flat, unrouted WDWL® face. The cleanest expression of cement bonded wood wool — preferred for restrained, minimalist Kenya interiors.
Grid routed cells across the panel face. A precise, architectural rhythm — frequently specified for central business district corporate fit outs.
Diamond cross routed pattern. Adds tactile depth without visual weight — used widely in Kenya's hospitality and F&B interiors.
Vertical channels routed along the 1200 mm length. Reads as elongation — preferred for tall ceilings and lobby walls.
Horizontal banded grooves. A graphic, mid weight pattern often paired with restaurants and creative co working interiors.
Concentric arched routes. A softer architectural reference now appearing across boutique hotels and wellness spaces in Kenya.
45 degree routed lines. Movement and direction — used to anchor focal walls in showrooms, retail, and feature lobbies.
Concentric curved routes. The most sculptural Mirage pattern — frequently called for in auditoriums and premium villa interiors.
16 Shades, 4 Design Families
Sixteen factory dyed wood wool finishes organised into four design families. Each shade penetrates the wood fibres before cement bonding, meaning the colour is integral to the panel — not a surface coating. Every family is matched to a different Kenya interior palette, from corporate restraint to hospitality warmth.
Two Installation Methods,
Both Site Proven in Kenya
WDWL® panels install on walls and ceilings using two distinct methods, both well understood by Kenya contractors and acoustic installers. Full installation drawings and BOQ support provided on request.
Measure the wall layout, mark panel positions with a chalk line, and align panel edges flush with adjacent panels or architectural elements.
Install panels using stainless steel screws at all four corners and one centre point. Pre drilling is optional for the 25 mm and 35 mm thicknesses.
Touch up exposed screw heads with matching panel colour from the 16 shade palette for a seamless, monolithic surface finish.
Fix the T-grid suspension system to the soffit at 600 × 600 mm or 1200 × 600 mm spacing, depending on the panel module specified.
Carefully drop each WDWL® panel into the grid slots from below. Panels rest on the T-grid flange — no fasteners required for standard ceiling work.
For Kenya's HVAC heavy ceiling zones, apply acoustic adhesive on panel edges for added stability and to prevent vibration rattle over time.
Why Kenya Architects
Specify WDWL® Wood Wool
Aw up to 1.00 in certified configurations, absorbing 90 to 100% of incident sound energy from 125 Hz to 4000 Hz. The broadband performance Kenya consultants specify for auditoriums, schools, and restaurants.
Cement bonding inhibits mould and fungal growth. WDWL® panels remain microbiologically stable in Kenya's tropical highland to humid coastal conditions and air conditioned interiors over decades of use.
One panel system, three surface applications. Specify the same WDWL® product across wall, ceiling, and floor zones in the same project for visual continuity and BOQ simplicity.
Bend strength up to 1700 kPa and compression resistance ≥ 300 kPa. WDWL® panels installed in Kenya 15 years ago still perform to specification today.
Three natural ingredients: wood, cement, water. No barium, no formaldehyde, no plastic binders. The most sustainable Class A acoustic surface available in the Kenya market.
Impact resistant cement bonded structure. Survives ball impact, accidental knocks, and contractor handling on busy Kenya construction sites without surface damage.
Where WDWL® Panels
Are Specified in Kenya
From premium hospitality projects to leading schools, DIFC corporate towers, and leading multiplex cinema chains — WDWL® wood wool panels are specified wherever broadband acoustic absorption, fire safety, and refined architectural finish are equally important.
WDWL® panels in lobby ceilings, ballrooms, and corridor walls of Kenya's five star hotels. The natural surface finish complements premium interiors while Class A absorption controls reverberation in large volume spaces.
Open plan workspaces in central business districts and tech corridors use WDWL® on ceiling clouds and feature walls to reduce reverberation time and improve speech intelligibility in meeting zones.
leading schools across Kenya specify WDWL® on classroom ceilings and auditorium walls. B-s1 d0 fire rating meets Kenya National Fire Brigade requirements while Class A absorption meets local building code reverberation targets.
Cinema chains, post production suites, and corporate auditoriums in Kenya use WDWL® rear walls and side splays in dyed dark finishes. The Mirage Curve and Diagonal patterns deliver both diffusion geometry and visible architectural identity.
F&B operators across premium dining and lifestyle districts specify WDWL® panels for warm, tactile ceilings that bring restaurant noise floor down to comfortable conversation levels without resorting to felt or fabric.
registered clinics and hospitals install WDWL® in waiting zones, consultation rooms, and patient corridors. Anti microbial cement bonding and B-s1 d0 fire rating align with both DHA and Kenya National Fire Brigade requirements.
