PolyPhon™ Polyester Acoustic Panels
Use a tacky lint roller to remove all loose dirt and dust or vacuum lightly with clean brush attachment. If still dirty, use a mild detergent with warm water and scrub lightly. Be sure to test in a small unnoticeable area first to make sure there are no adverse reactions to your solution. Blot dry with a clean absorbent cloth.
Accumulation of dust and dirt are best removed from PolyPhon™ with a soft brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner. Use vacuum attachments with a least 1” soft bristles to avoid damage to panel. PolyPhon™ panels may also be brushed off with a soft-bristle brush or blown gently with compressed air. Dirt may also be removed with a dry sponge; a damp, white cloth; or similar.
Heavy soiling and stains may require a product like Resolve® or Spot Shot® carpet cleaners, which should be used as directed. Test first on a small (or hidden, if possible) area of the panel. Allow test area to dry completely and look for any discoloration.
Product Description
Our PolyPhon™ Polyester Acoustic Panels are sound absorbing panels developed with environmental friendliness in mind. The panels are made from 100% polyester, 60% recycled fiber, and are 100% recyclable. PolyPhon™ Panels offer many environmental advantages and are a good alternative to a traditional fabric wrapped fiberglass panel.
PolyPhon™ Polyester offers sound absorption ratings comparable to fiberglass acoustical board. The core material is durable enough to withstand the force of a basketball yet may be pierced by a thumb tack for use as a tack board. The abuse resistant polyester is an excellent choice for use high traffic areas in athletic facilities, offices, schools, multipurpose rooms and just about anywhere.
The PolyPhon™ Polyester Acoustic Panels are delivered as a finished, durable sheet, ready to install. They may be easily cut to size on site for a custom fit or to create your own designs.

Customer Reviews
These definitely helped with our echoing problem. We still haven't mounted all the panels and and I bought less then what was recommended but it made a noticable difference already.
The panels were excellent and are performing very well in our small home indoor gym; panels are durable and have had a major impact on the acoustics of a room that was very echoic. My only complaint is that a few of the panels (3) came out of the box with a small amount of black dirt on them – we are using the panels as is (white; without fabric or paint) – so this was not good – but just on one side and edges – so not visible after installation. Due to the nature of the material – it is very difficult to clean off any dirt that gets into the material. We bought 7 boxes of 7.
To tell the truth I have not completed the project as of this date but the PolyPhon wrapped looks really good and I used 20 banner material. Hanging as envisioned has become a issue but I expect to overcome because the PP is forgivable time will tell . Just for information I am using over 700 sq ft.
As I expected product is great for my use However I’m disappointed with some sheet being very dirty, and trying to understand why 10 sheets are protected with plastic wrapping but the other 4 sheets are not and they are the one that are dirty. I ordered a case and dirty sheets makes my job that much harder and then how do I get replacements when they are needed now.
