What Are Felt Right Acoustic Tiles?

Felt Right tiles are premium, sound-absorbing wall panels made from high-density engineered PET felt. Designed with both acoustic performance and modern design in mind, each tile features a soft, wool-like texture and crisp, chamfered edges for a clean, dimensional finish. At 9mm (3/8 inch) thick, these acoustic tiles are durable, attractive, and easy to install. Made in the USA, every Felt Right tile is composed of approximately 50% recycled plastic — primarily single-use water bottles — broken down and sterilized without harmful chemicals. The fibers are dyed, felted, and precision-cut into a variety of sizes and shapes to support creative wall treatments for homes, offices, classrooms, and commercial interiors. Key Features of Felt Right Wall Tiles: Material: 100% PET felt (minimum 50% recycled content) Thickness: Standard 9mm (⅜ inch); 18mm available for custom orders Finish: Chamfered edges for a seamless, dimensional look Sound Absorption: NRC rating of 0.35 (absorbs ~35% of ambient sound) Eco-Friendly: Helps divert plastic waste from landfills Applications: Ideal for acoustic panels, pin boards, creative walls, and design accent

Do Felt Right Tiles Block Sound Between Rooms?

No. Felt Right tiles are designed to improve in-room acoustics by reducing reverberation and unwanted echo. While they significantly enhance sound quality within a space, they are not intended to prevent sound transmission between walls or rooms. For full soundproofing, extensive structural renovations are required.

Can Felt Right Tiles Be Cut To A Specific Size?

Yes! Felt Right tiles can be trimmed to any size using a razor blade and a straight edge (See example here). For the cleanest results, cutting along the engraved pattern lines is easiest, but any custom dimension works fine.For more control or complex shapes, we recommend: A serrated utility knife for general cuts Standard woodworking tools or a jigsaw for straight edges and angles A plywood template and a router with a flush-cut pattern bit for curves

Are Felt Right Tiles Pinnable?

Our tiles are made from dense, 9mm PET felt board — ideal for pinning and re-pinning notes, photos, or fabric. Each tile is the same thickness as a standard push pin, and while not fully self-healing, you can use a pinhead to gently blend fibers and minimize visible pin holes. Watch our how-to video here.
