With the addition of Lyra High CAC ceilings to its product line, Armstrong now offers a high level of sound absorption and sound blocking in a single ceiling panel.
Lyra High CAC combines a high NRC (Noise Reduction Coefficient) of 0.95 with a high CAC (Ceiling Attenuation Class) of 42, providing impressive overall acoustical performance.
The combination of sound absorption and sound blocking performance gives Lyra High CAC the flexibility to meet the acoustical demands of privacy, collaboration and focus areas in either open or closed plan spaces. The high NRC helps reduce noise within a space, enhancing speech intelligibility, while the high CAC helps prevent noise from intruding into adjacent spaces, ensuring speech privacy.
Made from a fiberglass face panel and mineral fiber back panel, Lyra High CAC offers a smooth, white, drywall-like visual and is available in 24- by 24-inch square Lay-in and Tegular panels. The panels are compatible with TechZone Ceiling Systems and coordinate with Blizzard White suspension systems and Axiom trim. The panels are washable, scratch-resistant, soil-resistant and sag-resistant. They have high light reflectance and carry a 30-year limited system warranty against visible sag and mold/mildew.
The panels are made from up to 59 percent recycled content and are recyclable through the Armstrong Ceiling Recycling Program.
Lyra High CAC ceilings are recommended for use in offices, healthcare, classrooms, corridors, lobbies, reception areas and other spaces where sound absorption and sound blocking are desired.
