Drawing inspiration from the swaying foliage surrounding the coast of the Canary Islands, Reeds is an acoustic wall panel from German designer Bernd Benninghoff. This easy-to-install wall panel combines organic forms inspired by nature with subtle v-grooves that add depth and shadow. Choose from over ninety colors of wool felt and pair a substrate in one of three calming shades of grey. Or, add a second layer of felt to create subtle or dramatic color combinations.

Installation Install in the pattern as specified and attach to a wall surface using a heavy-duty construction adhesive. Tiles may be trimmed to size with a utility knife. Refer to Reeds Installation Instructions for complete guidance.
Maintenance Vacuum occasionally to remove general air-borne debris. Should soiling occur, spot clean with mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid aggressive rubbing as this can continue the felting process and change the surface appearance of the felt. Refer to Product Maintenance and Cleaning Guide for detailed care instructions.
Variation Wool felt is a natural material and color variation and inclusions of natural fiber on the surface are evidence of the 100% natural origin of the material. Product color is only indicative, as it is not possible to assure consistency of color in a natural product due to the natural color of raw wool and absorption of dyes. Color matching cannot be guaranteed between individual panels and expect color variation beyond the normal commercial range.
