About VaporSoft® CLUSTER

Cluster has transformed perforated torsion spring panels into an elegant ceiling-scape. By staggering the location of the holes, we’ve upgraded a standard grid into an eye-catching design that will get viewers talking. Choose from two levels of perforation density: Cluster Dense and Cluster Sparse. Cluster is made from our Soft Sound® material to provide acoustic support, but if you want to really elevate your look, add our optional integrated backlighting. You’ll get both acoustic control and a beautiful glow.

The System

Key Features

  1. Acoustic Performance

    VaporSoft®'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. Expansive Color Library

    Choose from a large library of Soft Sound® colors and wood textures. Mix and match colors to accent certain panels and complement the color scheme of your space.

  3. Achieve Acoustics & Lighting

    VaporSoft® panels offer an innovative way to tackle acoustic performance and illumination with a single product, combining integrated acoustic facing with available backlighting and InLine lighting.

  4. Easy Installation & Access

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

  5. Preconfigured Solutions

    VaporSoft® 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. Continuous Pattern Aesthetic

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