Weaving the future
6/23/2023
The traditional Swiss textile specialist Création Baumann presents a new look after its brand relaunch. Managing Director Philippe Baumann explains the concept to us in an interview.
“Betacoustic” displays a filigree line grid. The intriguing interplay of the black warp and the coloured weft lend the 300 cm wide weave which is available in eight colours vividness and depth. Both textiles are in Trevira CS and are washable and flame retardant in accordance with DIN 4102-B1.
Thanks to superb interaction of weight, porosity and weave technique coupled with the use of a specially developed foil yarn, the transparent acoustic fabrics achieve sound absorption coefficients of αw 0,6 - 0,65 and are therefore true sound absorbers. With their light and airy guise “Alphacoustic” and “Betacoustic” enhance the acoustics of an interior, without introducing an element of textile heaviness.
