Decorative acoustic absorber forming a wall element

Abstract

The invention relates to a decorative acoustic absorber ( 1 ), which is for example colored and/or has a graphic design applied to it, forms a wall element and has an acoustic material and a visible side. In order to provide an acoustic absorber formed as a wall element which provides the desired decorative possibilities, in a simple construction, it is proposed for the acoustic material ( 3 ) to be laminated on the visible side with a non-woven layer ( 4 ), printing being applied to the non-woven layer ( 4 ).

1 . A decorative acoustic absorber ( 1 ), which is for example colored and/or has a graphic design applied to it, forms a wall element and has an acoustic material and a visible side, wherein the acoustic material ( 3 ) is laminated on the visible side with a non-woven layer ( 4 ), printing being carried out on the non-woven layer ( 4 ). 
   
   
       2 . An acoustic absorber according to  claim 1 , wherein the acoustic material ( 3 ) is a foam material. 
   
   
       3 . An acoustic absorber according to  claim 1 , wherein the acoustic material ( 3 ) is an open-pored foam material. 
   
   
       4 . An acoustic absorber according to  claim 1 , wherein the acoustic material ( 3 ) is a melamine foam resin. 
   
   
       5 . A method for manufacturing a wall element which is decorative, coloured and/or has a graphic design applied to it, has an acoustic material ( 3 ) and serves as an acoustic absorber ( 1 ), wherein the acoustic material ( 3 ) is initially laminated with a non-woven material ( 4 ) and that printing is then effected on this combination on the non-woven material side thereof.
