  • ASTM E84 Class A Cert — Printed Acoustical Panels

    ASTM E84 Class A surface burning characteristics certification for OrangePiel printed acoustical panels — Flame Spread Index ≤ 25 and Smoke Developed Index ≤ 450, the IBC Chapter 8 commercial-occupancy fire-rating requirement. Signed lab cert PDF. At a glance — Class A, Flame Spread Index ≤ 25, Smoke Developed Index ≤ 450 per ASTM E84 Standard Test Method for Surface Burning Characteristics of Building Materials. Test method: Steiner Tunnel apparatus, 10-minute burn cycle. Test panel configuration: face fabric over absorptive core, mounted as installed. Lab: independent NVLAP-accredited fire-testing laboratory. Class A is the most stringent rating under ASTM E84 — required by the International Building Code (IBC) Chapter 8 for interior wall and ceiling finishes in most commercial occupancies. Coverage: IBC Group A Assembly (restaurants, theaters, places of worship, conference venues), Group B Business (offices, professional services, banks), Group E Educational (K-12, daycare, vocational schools), Group I Institutional (hospitals, clinics, senior living, behavioral-health), Group R-1 Residential transient (hotels, motels, short-term lodging), Group M Mercantile (retail, showrooms, exhibition halls). Companion fabric flame propagation rating: NFPA 701 (2023 ed.) compliant under both small-scale Test Method 1 and large-scale Test Method 2. Many hospitality, healthcare, and assembly occupancies require both ASTM E84 (panel assembly) AND NFPA 701 (textile face) — OrangePiel printed acoustic panels carry both ratings on the same product.

Bundle ZIP includes all formats. At a glance — DWG (AutoCAD 2018+), DXF (interchange), IFC (openBIM), RFA (Revit 2022+), bundled ZIP. Software compatibility: AutoCAD, Revit, ArchiCAD, Vectorworks, SketchUp (DWG/DXF import), any IFC-compliant BIM platform. Coordinate system: origin at bottom-left of panel face. Units: inches (imperial) AND millimeters (metric) — both systems included. Detail level: LOD 300 (geometric model with mounting hardware integrated). Panel geometries: standard 1-inch panel as DWG, DXF, IFC, and Revit family (parametric, with mounting hardware as nested family). Panel sizes 12" × 12" up to 192" × 192" (16 ft × 16 ft seamless on both axes); custom sizing within those bounds available. Continuous joined-panel runs to 200 ft on a single installed surface with registered seams. Mounting hardware geometries — all four options included as DWG, DXF, IFC, and as nested Revit families: Z-clip (drywall + plywood substrates, the workhorse spec), French cleat (renter-friendly removable installs), impaling clip (CMU + concrete substrates), aircraft cable + ceiling termination (suspended ceiling baffles + clouds). Section + elevation views included: elevation (panel face), plan (top view + mounting position), wall section details for Z-clip / French cleat / impaling clip (showing air gap, panel thickness, substrate, anchor), reflected ceiling plan for aircraft cable layout. The wall section files include substrate (drywall, plywood, CMU, or concrete on appropriate layers), mounting hardware, air gap dimension callout, panel cross-section, and anchor specification per substrate. Air gap + NRC performance — important callout: the OrangePiel acoustic panel is rated NRC 0.85 per ASTM C423 in Type A mounting (panel direct to chamber wall, no air gap). When installed with a 25 mm air gap (Z-clip standard), low-frequency absorption improves to NRC 0.86-0.88. With a 50 mm+ air gap (suspended ceiling cloud), NRC reaches 0.90+ with significant low-frequency boost. The air gap dimension is included in the wall section detail files. Specifiers should match the air gap to the project's RT60 target. Supporting documents: Mounting Hardware Specification Sheet (PDF — per-hardware load tables + substrate compatibility chart), Air Gap + NRC Performance Notes (PDF), Panel Sizing Chart (PDF — standard sizes + custom sizing on request). Companion specifications on the trade portal: CSI 3-Part Spec (Section 09 84 00), NRC Test Report (ASTM C423), ASTM E84 Class A Cert, NFPA 701 Cert, UL GREENGUARD Gold Cert, Installation Services Capability Statement.

  • UL GREENGUARD Gold Cert — Acoustic Panels

    UL GREENGUARD Gold certification for OrangePiel printed acoustical panels — low chemical emissions (VOCs, formaldehyde, 360+ other compounds) at the most stringent threshold tier. Required for school + healthcare purchasing specifications and supports LEED v4.1 EQc9 + WELL Building Standard. At a glance — UL GREENGUARD Gold certified per ANSI/BIFMA M7.1 + UL 2818, the most stringent low-chemical-emission certification for interior products. Issued by UL Solutions. Compounds tested: 360+ VOCs and SVOCs including formaldehyde, total VOCs, individual hazardous compounds tracked by EPA, OSHA, and state health departments. Annual re-certification cycle. Why GREENGUARD Gold matters for spec compliance: K-12 schools, daycare, higher education (state school facility codes; CHPS Best Practices Manual; California DPH school-procurement standards); healthcare hospitals, clinics, behavioral health, senior living (NFPA 99 Healthcare Facilities Code; The Joint Commission environment-of-care standards; hospital purchasing specs); WELL Building Standard v2 (X06 VOC Reduction, X07 Materials Transparency — points contributor); LEED v4.1 BD+C and ID+C (EQc2 Low-Emitting Materials credit — direct points contributor); CHPS / Living Building Challenge (Materials Petal compliance); California state procurement (California Department of General Services low-VOC requirements for state facilities). Compound classes tested: formaldehyde (HCHO) below Gold threshold ≤ 0.05 ppm; total VOCs (TVOC) below Gold threshold; 270+ individual VOCs (benzene, toluene, xylene, styrene, etc.) each below Gold threshold; SVOCs (phthalates, PBDEs, fragrance ingredients) below Gold threshold; EPA-listed Hazardous Air Pollutants below Gold threshold. Testing happens in a controlled chamber over 14 days; the product is certified only when chamber concentrations remain below the Gold threshold across the entire test window. For a hospital pediatrics wing or an elementary school cafeteria, the spec typically requires sound absorption (NRC 0.85 per ASTM C423), Class A surface burning (ASTM E84), and low-VOC IAQ (this cert) on the same product. OrangePiel meets all three — specifiers can drop the OrangePiel acoustic panel into a hospital, school, or senior-living spec without IAQ substitution or third-party VOC testing. Drop into Section 09 84 00 Part 2 Products → 2.02 Performance Requirements as "Indoor Air Quality: UL GREENGUARD Gold certified per ANSI/BIFMA M7.1 + UL 2818"; Part 1 General → 1.05 Submittals as "Submit current UL GREENGUARD Gold certificate prior to material delivery".

  • NFPA 701 Cert — Printed Acoustic Wall Murals

    NFPA 701 (2023 ed.) certification for OrangePiel printed acoustic wall mural face fabric — small-scale and large-scale flame propagation tests for hanging textiles and films. Required for hospitality, healthcare, and assembly occupancies. Signed lab cert PDF. At a glance — NFPA 701 (2023 ed.) compliant under Test Method 1 (small-scale, 6" × 9" sample, 45-second flame exposure, < 6.5" char length, < 2-second after-flame) AND Test Method 2 (large-scale, 4 ft × 8 ft sample, 2-minute sustained horizontal flame, < 40% weight loss, no continued combustion). Issued by National Fire Protection Association. Lab: independent NVLAP-accredited fire-testing laboratory. NFPA 701 is the canonical fire-rating test for hanging textiles and films in commercial occupancies — distinct from ASTM E84 which tests the panel as an installed surface. Required by hospitality (local fire marshal + IBC Chapter 8), healthcare (NFPA 99 Healthcare Facilities Code + state DPH), assembly (NFPA 101 Life Safety Code), theatrical / broadcast / film production (NFPA 80 + state OSH theatrical codes), and educational (state school facility codes + IFC). Test Method 1 covers most commercial textile applications. Test Method 2 is required for heavy-weight fabrics and large-scale installations (full-wall acoustic murals, theatrical scrims). OrangePiel face fabric passes both — qualifying for the full range of installation scenarios. Why this matters for hospitality + healthcare: projects routinely fail fire-marshal punch lists because the wall finish is rated for surface burning (ASTM E84) but the textile face is not separately rated for flame propagation (NFPA 701). The fabric on the panel becomes the failure point — a Class A panel with non-compliant face fabric will be removed at the marshal's discretion, post-install, at the GC's cost. OrangePiel printed acoustic wall murals carry both ratings on the same product. Companion certifications: ASTM E84 Class A (panel surface burning), Cal. Code Regs. Title 19 §3.08 (California assembly compliance), CAL 117 (available on request for upholstered applications). Drop into Section 09 84 00 Part 2 Products → 2.02 Performance Requirements as "Fabric Flame Propagation: NFPA 701 (2023 ed.) compliant — Test Methods 1 and 2".

  • NRC Test Report — Printed Acoustical Panels

    Independent NRC test report for OrangePiel printed acoustical panels per ASTM C423 (ASTM International). Tested in reverberation chamber at four 1/3-octave bands (250, 500, 1000, 2000 Hz). Signed lab report PDF + raw absorption coefficient data table. At a glance — NRC 0.85 across all standard fabric finishes, tested per ASTM C423 reverberation-chamber method. Test panel: 1 inch (25 mm) thickness, Type A mounting (direct to chamber wall). Lab: independent NVLAP-accredited acoustics laboratory. Sound absorption coefficient data per measured frequency band: 250 Hz = 0.62, 500 Hz = 0.94, 1000 Hz = 0.96, 2000 Hz = 0.93. NRC averaged at 0.85 (rounded to nearest 0.05). Means an OrangePiel acoustic panel absorbs 85 percent of the sound energy that strikes it across the measured band. NRC value framing for specifiers: 0.00-0.20 reflective (concrete, glass, painted gypsum); 0.20-0.50 mildly absorptive (carpet, upholstered furniture); 0.50-0.70 moderately absorptive (average acoustic ceiling tile); 0.70-0.90 absorptive (specifier-grade — OrangePiel range); 0.90-1.00 highly absorptive (broadband studio treatment).
