Origin

Flarø is a full wall acoustic cladding and is made out of upcycled beech wood from a major Danish contractor. The beech has nuances of red and yellow, with black lines running across the wood. Here it can be experienced in the form of an acoustic panel combined with acoustic felts made of worn-out textiles. Depending on fire requirements, acoustic batts made from other waste sources are also applicable. Flarø gets its name from the characteristics of the wood. Everything from the grain pattern to the blackened fungi paths could remind one of a blazing flare in the sky, smoke trailing behind.

Installation guide

1. Measure the surface of application.
Decide if:
a. The panels will span from corner to corner. (Ends will not be exposed)
b. The panels will only cover some of the surface. (Ends will be exposed)

2. Order the required amount of:
c. Flarø panels from A:gain (When calculating the number of panels needed. Be aware that the visible width of the panel is 480mm and the last panel has a width of 442mm)
d. Nærø acoustic batts from A:gain
e. Spacers from your local hardware store
f. Screws from your local hardware store

3. Order the required amount of end-pieces, depending on “a” or “b”
a. Ends are not exposed. You don’t need an end piece.
b. Ends are exposed. You need two end-pieces.

4. Mount spacers
g. Calculate the width of a spacer.
h. Mark vertical and horizontal lines on your surface, to insure the positioning of
the spacers. Be aware, if end-pieces are applied, the vertical tolerance is very
important.
i. Fixate the spacers

5. Install Nærø acoustic batts
j. Start from the left side and work towards the right side. (Make sure that the
cut will be hidden behind the profiles)
k. If end-pieces will be added the first batt will need to have 26 mm removed, to
ensure that the cuts are hidden behind the profiles.
l. The last batt needs to be cut in order to fit behind the last panel.

6. Mount Flarø panels
m. Start from the left side and work towards the right side.
n. Make sure that the spacers are hidden behind the horizonal spacers
o. Adjust the last panel by removing the excessive ends of the horizontal profiles
or by cutting the whole panel into the required measurement.
p. If the whole profile is cut in width, it will be necessary to move and/or rotate
the last profile to hide the cut.

This is just a quick overview of the steps that you need to follow. All the topics are described in detail in the downloadable installation sheet.
