SAVE
Whisperwool absorbs the frequencies in the main speech range without overdamping (300 to 3500 hertz). Whisperwool acoustic panels are highly sound-absorbent above a frequency of 100 hertz (lower values have not been recorded). Whisperwool has a very good "early decay time" (EDT Early Decay Time), a benchmark from acoustics that evaluates the perceived reverberation time (reverberation).
The distance to the wall increases the absorption in the low frequencies, and with additional back insulation the absorption effect can be increased. As a result, it usually only takes half the area compared to other systems to achieve pleasant rooms.
Even a small amount of Whisperwool sound absorbers leads to a high acoustic efficiency. In this way, costs can be saved.

Improve room acoustics with sheep's wool
Room acoustics & room design with sheep's wool
In architecture and design, materials such as concrete and glass play an important role. However, the smooth surfaces create poor room acoustics. It begins to reverberate. The wool used in Whisperwool calms noisy rooms. Speech becomes more understandable and communication more pleasant.
The fine hairs of the sheep's wool are responsible for this. They are set in motion by sound. By converting the kinetic energy into thermal energy, the sound is absorbed and the room acoustics are improved. With Whisperwool acoustic absorbers on the wall, ceiling or as a room divider, whispering is no longer necessary and concentration at work increases.
Sustainable design made from the agricultural waste material sheep's wool
Whisperwool is the sustainable acoustic solution made from sheep's wool.
Sustainable raw materials that have a positive impact on the environment are important to us. Sheep's wool is a renewable raw material that is a waste product of agriculture.
We focus on regionality, which is why we mainly use Tyrolean sheep's wool and always know exactly under which conditions the sheep live and are sheared. The natural acoustic solution Whisperwool supports the regional value chain and is produced by a certified non-profit company, Tante Lotte Design GmbH.
Whisperwool is Made in Austria.
ECOLOGY
Whisperwool is recyclable.
A long service life and recyclability are the hallmarks of our acoustic panels and acoustic boards. Sheep's wool does not age. The lifespan of Whisperwool is therefore very long. Nothing stands in the way of reuse. The sustainable design protects the environment and promotes the circular economy. Should waste nevertheless occur, we process Whisperwool again into Whisperwool.
High quality design made from sheep's wool
Whisperwool combines room acoustics with room design. The matt surface of the sheep's wool, its natural colours and our patented technology give both our design team and inspired interior designers almost infinite creative freedom.
Whisperwool design sound absorbers can be shaped, folded, dyed, printed, trimmed, embossed, shone through...
FORM
Health through sheep's wool
Whisperwool not only improves room acoustics but also the indoor air. With our natural acoustic solutions, a small ecosystem moves into interior spaces. The natural product sheep's wool is active here. Sheep's wool cleans itself and its surroundings at the same time. It filters pollutants from the air and absorbs humidity.
Whisperwool enables the ergonomic design of interiors in two different ways:
-
Improving room acoustics
Whisperwool reduces background noise. This results in less psychological stress due to noise.
-
Improvement of the indoor climate
Whisperwool filters toxins out of the air. This reduces the physical stress caused by pollutants.
HEALTHY
"I'm so interested in wool because when I'm shearing sheep, I notice that the farmers have to throw the wool away or give it away. And that's not right."
