A truly sustainable acoustics brand is built on sustainable materials that deliver superior performance. We believe the materials of the future will not be extracted, they will be reclaimed. Our innovation is rooted in transforming what is discarded into what is desired, designing not just for a product's life, but for its many lives to come without compromising on quality or aesthetic.
ARCHISONIC® Felt Quick Resources
Sven Erni
Co-Founder and CEO
Find quick answers to the most common sustainability questions and gain a clearer understanding of recycled materials, circular design and verified environmental information.
This FAQ brings together key information around PET, EPDs, material transparency and take-back options. By making these topics easier to access, it supports more informed specification decisions and helps clarify how acoustic performance, responsible material choices and circular thinking come together in Impact Acoustic solutions.
What does sustainability mean for Impact Acoustic?
Sustainability means transforming waste into functional acoustic design while focusing on circularity, transparency and measurable material performance.
What does circularity mean in acoustic materials?
Circularity means designing acoustic products for long life, recovery and return into material cycles instead of disposal or down-cycling in inferior products.
How can recycled PET reduce environmental impact?
Using recycled PET can reduce reliance on virgin fossil resources and transform plastic waste into long-life acoustic products.
What is embodied carbon?
Embodied carbon is the greenhouse gas emissions associated with material extraction, manufacturing, transport, installation and end-of-life stages.
What is an EPD?
An Environmental Product Declaration is a third-party verified document that reports environmental impacts based on life-cycle assessment rules.
How do EPDs support architects?
EPDs help architects compare environmental impacts and document material choices for sustainable building projects.
How does material transparency support better decisions?
Material transparency enables better decisions about health, fire, circularity, recyclability and environmental impact. We cannot rely on products without certification.
What role do take-back programmes play in circular design?
Take-back programmes create a practical pathway for recovering products and retaining material value after use.
What is Re:Impact Take Back?
Re:Impact Take Back is Impact Acoustic’s programme for recovering eligible materials at end of life and supporting circular handling.
