Origin

The wood originates from Germany, harvested sustainably to maintain a healthy forest. Carefully selected trees are cut down without harming the environment. The Danish manufacturing prioritises eco-friendly practices, utilising bio-based fuel and wind energy. Flawed materials from regular production, such as large knots or uneven planing, are repurposed by a:gain, ensuring zero waste.

Collection:

We take our Douglas Fir wood from a Danish wood manufacturer. The wood was discarded because of knots and cracks

waste-based wood used as building materials e.g. acoustic panels or just full acoustic wall panelling

Milling:

The wood is then processed at Overgaard Wood, in Fredericia. Here the wood is first rough cut for production

Profiling:

We seek to minimise the number of different profiles so that our manufacturing is agile. Furthermore, we always cut profiles that are optimised to the material

wood being made into acoustic wall panelling

Manufacturing:

The Douglas fir is turned into one of our final products. For example our Flarø Douglas panels

Material Characteristics

We believe wood should be wood, that means we embrace its features.

Knots:

All knots are allowed unless they affect functionality

Knots:

Expect knots of all sizes

Grain:

As opposed to veneered wood, the grain may turn between lamellas

Colour:

The colour will vary slightly with the woods natural hues

Finish

Our waterborne wax comes in 3 colours, you can select between them in the left hand menu. The wax is sprayed on and needs no maintenance. It is possible to repaint the wax, should the colour need a touch up, after many years.

Specify Wax

See our options in the left hand menu. We generally only show selected colour combinations, but we are always open to other requests!

Pick height

Flarø Douglas comes in two heights: 2455 and 2755mm

Define order size

How much would you like to purchase?

Remember end pieces (optional)

To finish the panel an end piece is added, this is only necessary if the panel does not end up against a wall. How many walls will you cover and how many exposed edges would you like to close?

Choose Nærø textile batt (optional)

Choose between our various colour options or simply buy the panel without acoustic backing.

Handling

What is Flarø Douglas made of and how do you source it? How much of the material is waste based?

Flarø Douglas is made from 100% discarded Douglas fir from a large Danish wood manufacturer. The wood originates in Germany. In case a glass fibre membrane is added for fire retardant reasons, the horisontal braces will be replaced with offcut plywood.

Does Flarø Douglas contain any hazardous materials?

No, Flarø Douglas enters our manufacturing line untreated, and we only treat it with a waterborne wax. We can provide an SDS (Safety Data Sheets) on the wax. When we burn block the material, it is with a cradle-to-cradle certified solution. For more information contact us.

Is the material recyclable?

Yes, the wood can be sorted as ‘Wood’ and the textile batt as Textile’ at a recycling station. We also offer take-back services for reuse or remanufacturing into as-new products.

How and where is Flarø Douglas manufactured?

The wood is sawn, planed, cut to length and finally assembled to panels at our partner Overgaard Wood in Fredericia.

Can I order a customised size or colour of Flarø?

For larger projects, such as a whole office building or an entire floor, we can have new colours developed, however, for smaller projects the colours showcased on this page are our standard options. The standard wood finish and Nærø batt colours can be combined to create this. If you wish, you can repaint the product yourself. We can also adjust the size; please reach out to us with your specific request to receive a cost estimate.

What tolerance can I expect on the Flarø panels, in terms of deviance in size?

There are many tolerances within production. But in general you can expect a tolerance of ±1 mm per m.

How can I adjust or alter Flarø Douglas post purchase?

The wood can be treated like any other wooden product. It can be repainted, stripped, sawn, planed, etc. The panel is joined together with soft nails and a regular one-component waterborne PVAc wood glue. This can be cut through with a regular circular saw and a new brace can be added to the back, we deliver braces with the panel if required. We are currently working on exchanging glue and nails for a screw-joined solution. If the panelling is to be installed partially on a wall, we can deliver end pieces to the side of the panel to make for a complete look.

How should I mount and handle the Flarø panel to not damage it?

See the mounting guide for mounting instructions. To be certain that the surface treatment is not damaged unnecessarily, do not take the panel out of its original packaging prior to the moment you need to install it. If you do need to check the quality of the panels or have concerns over the finish, be sure to handle with care if you need to re-package the material. The wax finish is very sturdy, but ultimately not completely resistant to scratching.
