• This product has been tested in accordance with CDPH
• 01350 v1.2 VOC emissions evaluation requirements and qualifies for the LEEDv4.1 EQ credit: Low-emitting materials.
• Wall pads are tested in accordance with ASTM C423: Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC): 1.05 and Sound Absorption Average (SAA): 1.06

Sound Absorption Properties

The Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) is the standard metric for measuring how much sound a surface absorbs. These acoustic wall pads are estimated to achieve an NRC rating up to 1.05* meaning that the pads will absorb over 100% of the sound energy that hits them across the speech frequency spectrum. The extra 5% comes from the edges capturing sound.

Basic wall pads will bounce sound off the vinyl surface material, creating echoes. Adding these gym wall panels will reduce echo time (RT60), improving speech clarity. The wall panels will prevent noise build-up.

You can choose to install the CourtQuiet Wall Pads in a room or gymnasium if you need to reduce the sound greatly. Also, choosing to pair these pads with the Safety Wall Pads can reduce the sound where you may not need all the wall pads to absorb sound.

*Sound absorption was tested with the Z-clip installation method. Actual sound absorption performance may vary based on method of installation and site conditions.

Z-Clip Style Installation Method

The wall pads include aluminum Z-Clips for easy and versatile installation. The Z-Clip mounts to the wall at the top and bottom, as aligned with panel size and mounting height. The opposing Z-Clip is mounted to the backside of the wall pad. (Z-clips on the wall pads are included. Z-clips for the wall are not included in the price shown.)

Once the clips are securely fastened, you can nest the clip mounted to the pad into the clip that’s mounted to the wall. Use a rubber mallet to tap the wall pad securely down into the Clip. The mats can be removed and reinstalled as needed.

(Other types of installation methods are available including a nailing margin designed for permanent installation.)

Wall pads are custom fabricated to accommodate outlets, switches, door hardware, fire extinguishers, and other wall-mounted fixtures while maintaining continuous protective coverage. This is typically referred to as a 'cut out'. Cut outs can also be completed DIY-style with cutout inserts which are available in a 4x6 and 6x6 inch size to fit standard outlets and light switches.
