The System

Key Features

  1. Acoustic Performance

    Vapor®'s optional Soft Sound® backer material reduces the impact of noise from everyday annoyances like ringing, typing, and chatter resulting in a more pleasant and productive environment. The Soft Sound® backer works in concert with the design to help reduce and control reverberations leaving a lasting impression at scales ranging from assembly halls to conference rooms.

  2. Superior Flatness & Strength

    Vapor® panels are manufactured from aluminum that is on average 50% thicker than the competition, which in combination with our precision processes result in unrivaled flatness.

  3. Integrated Lighting Options

    NOWN's Vapor® line makes it easy to seamlessly add illumination and lighting effects to your projeccts, through available integrated InLine and Backlighting options.

  4. Easy Installation & Access

    Vapor® panels offer easy install, using quick torsion spring attachment across s tandard ceiling grid systems or simple wall attachment using our Vertika™ channel system.

  5. Preconfigured Solutions

    Vapor® panels are scalable, seamlessly tileable, preconfigured solutions designed with a dynamic array of criteria and effects in mind. Choose from our growing library of patterns to uniquely impact your project.

  6. Achieve uninterrupted patterning across your space. Vapor® patterns have perforations that wrap around the edges of each panel, concealing where patterns start and end.
