In a large variety of multi-purpose venues that require variable acoustic control, most solutions

are accomplished with flexible absorption methods. Sound waves can be effectively absorbed by

almost any open cell structure such as fabrics, foams, or carpet; whereas fabrics being the most

versatile form of flexible absorption. Factors that contribute to good sound absorption in fabrics are

flow resistance and weight of the material. The Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) gives a general

impression of the absorption properties of the material. For example, a NRC of 1 absorbs 100% of

sound energy. Other important factors that determine the NRC are percentage of fabric fullness

and the distance away from the wall in which the fabric has been tested.
