Acoustic Padded Wall

Varifold’s VARIWALL Padded Fabric Wall Panels and Fabric Panel Systems are very different from what you’ve known, specified, or used in the past. They are, quite frankly, superior.

All of our fabric wall systems feature our “floating-fabric” design. The VARIWALL System incorporates a track which frames the chosen substrate in high-impact plastic. The selected fabric or other covering is stretched across the surface of the panel and inserted into the tracks tight fitting jaws which hold the fabric taught, concealing the edge of the fabric in a hidden channel. Allowing for clean, beautiful lines applicable to any type of room.

CRUSH PROOF EDGES

The track or frame is manufactured from high-impact plastic. Wrapped fiberglass panel edges crush easily. Their edges are dipped in a resin material (that typically contain VOCs) to provide modest durability—but not significant crush resistance.

VISIBLE DAMAGE IS ELIMINATED

Dents, dings, crush marks, and depressions occur almost immediately after the installation in a wrapped panel or on painted surfaces. They occur in the VARIWALL system too, but you’ll never see them because they are hidden behind the tautly stretched “free-floating” fabric cover. You can pound on our panels with a hammer and they will remain unblemished. It is the ultimate “high-impact” panel.

FLOATING-FABRIC DESIGN

Because the fabric covering is tautly held in place by the track’s jaws, it is able to float freely across the face of the panel (not glued to the face like wrapped panels.) This results in a number of advantages.

AVOID VERTICAL SEAMS

Wrapped panels are limited in size to the size of the substrate, up to no more than 4’ x 8’. This requires them to be oriented vertically in most rooms. That’s a lot of joint lines and you can’t orient the panels horizontally without even more. With the VARIWALL System, the more desirable horizontal layout is easily achieved. We can support monolithic panels up to 8’ x 180’ without a single joint.

CONFORM TO ANY ARCHITECTURE FEATURE

Our system can be installed easily not only on walls, but on ceilings, soffits, in alcoves and more. Virtually any architectural detail can be accommodated and, in most cases, without seams. Moreover, our VARIWALL system will adjust to varying dimensions and out-of-plumb or out-of-square conditions for a perfect final finish. No unsightly gaps.

CHANGEABLE & SUSTAINABLE

Because the fabric is held in the track and not glued down, there is no need to remove the entire panel to repair it or make a design change. Just pull the fabric from the track’s jaws and replace it. The track and the substrate remain on the wall. Save time, save money and send fewer perfectly good construction materials to the land fill.

ACOUSTICS

The acoustically transparent fabric covering the panel allows sound to pass through to the substrate beneath. In order to tailor-make our wall system for your room, Varifold offers a multitude of different substrates, each with their own individual acoustic characteristics. The most popular, high-density acoustic rockwool, absorbs sound rather than reflecting it, reducing echoes and reverberations to make it easier to hear what is being said or played. NRC ratings range from 0.8 to 1.1.

ENDLESS VARIETY

Our VARIWALL Fabric Wall Solutions have a near infinite amount of possibilities when it comes to color, shape, and pattern. This is all thanks to the unique VARIWALL Wall Finishing System, which uses a ‘free-floating’ fabric design, coupled with a tackable substrate. Make intricate designs, use beautiful fabrics, even turn whole walls into tackable surfaces using the VARIWALL Wall Finishing System.
