Buy acoustic wallpaper | Selected Wallpapers

Acoustic wallpaper is wall covering that unites two functions in one: it improves the acoustics in a room and provides a warm, finished appearance. While regular wallpaper reflects sound waves, acoustic wallpaper absorbs them thanks to a fiber-rich, micro-perforated or felt-like top layer. The result is noticeably less reverberation, quieter sound, and a wall that feels soft and inviting. Moreover, the same fibers provide light thermal insulation, so your wall feels warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

Acoustic wallpaper: properties and benefits

The strength of acoustic wallpaper lies in the structure of the top layer. Materials such as textile, fleece and felt absorb sound waves instead of reflecting them. That makes a noticeable difference in spaces with many hard surfaces, such as tiled floors, large windows or concrete walls. In addition to the sound-dampening effect, this type of wallpaper also adds visually: the textured surfaces look warm and refined, and they are available in a broad palette of colors and patterns. Whether you choose a quiet solid shade or an expressive motif, the aesthetic possibilities are extensive.

Applying acoustic wallpaper by room

Reverberation in the living room, an office that continues to echo or a bedroom that feels too 'hollow' — acoustic wallpaper is suitable for various rooms. Think of living rooms with lots of glass or tiles, home offices where quiet during video calls is pleasant, bedrooms where you want to create extra silence, or project interiors such as hotel lobbies and meeting rooms. Want an even warmer and softer effect on the wall? Then also check out the textile wallpaper collection, which is closely related to acoustic variants. For durable applications in busy spaces, vinyl wallpaper offers a sturdy complement.

Request a sample first

Frequently asked questions

FAQ about Acoustic wallcovering

What is acoustic wallpaper?

Acoustic wallpaper is a wall covering that absorbs sound instead of reflecting it. The top layer consists of textile, non-woven or micro-perforated material, often with a felt or foam backing. The result: less echo, more pleasant sound and a warm, tactile wall. It looks like design wallpaper and works as sound dampening at the same time.

How much sound does acoustic wallpaper actually absorb?

That depends on the product. Leading brands such as Texdecor and Omexco provide acoustic reports per collection, with concrete absorption values (αw). In living rooms and bedrooms, acoustic wallpaper is often enough to noticeably reduce echo. For heavy noise loads, it can be combined with other sound-absorbing measures.

Is acoustic wallpaper also visually attractive?

Yes — modern acoustic wall coverings are designed by leading design houses such as Texdecor, Omexco, Elitis, Casamance, Arte and Moooi. Collections range from sleek and minimalist to richly textured, in serene shades or bold statement colours. Function and aesthetics go hand in hand.

How does acoustic wallpaper differ from regular wallpaper?

Regular wallpaper is purely decorative; sound bounces right off it. Acoustic wallpaper has a special fibre-rich or perforated build-up that captures sound waves. Visually, the difference is often minimal — your wall looks just as beautiful, but sounds entirely different. Acoustic wallpaper also insulates slightly better thermally.

How is acoustic wallpaper applied?

Acoustic wallpaper is supplied on rolls and applied with a specific adhesive to a smooth, clean surface. Because of the thickness and structure, it requires careful workmanship — the seams need to line up exactly for a seamless finish. Professional installation is recommended, especially for larger walls and textured designs.
