Just in the center and hidden behind the front acoustic textile plate you find the 40 mm eco-friendly sound absorber and it actually all started as a research project with danish sound . The task was to replace man-made materials with sound absorbers obtained in mother nature.
Actually it started as a research project with Danish Sound. The goal was to replace the man-made absorbers into sound absorbers direct from mother nature. After a period of measurements we ended op with Hemp. Beside hemp has the optimal sound absorbing properties it is also an very eco-friendly choice. Since hemp is an annual plant it can be harvested and replanted every single year. Hemp also contains no protein. This makes the oldest crop in the world pest-resistant and consequently it is cultivated completely without pesticides.
To act sustainable is also about distances and choosing near-by suppliers… we do. Our hemp is growning on Mols, a beautiful spot only a few hours drive from our production facilities .
