I - YOU - WE... - comfort and interaction - Competition held in cooperation with the University of Arts in Poznan
FilzBee’s cooperation with universities, educational engagement with students and the search for new talent are a key part of our company’s strategy.
The implementation of the “Me-To-Me..-comfort and interaction” competition reflected this very premise.
By focusing on creating a relaxation and integration zone in the academic space, we aimed not only to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing space, but also to establish direct interaction with the academic community.
Through this project, we were able to educate students about the PET felt material and its acoustic properties, as well as discover and support young talent, which is in line with filzBee’s mission and strategic goals.
We intend to make selected works that will not only become part of the real space of the university, but will also be a testament to the practical implementation of the ideas of young designers.
This activity aims to promote talent, and demonstrates the practical application of theory and skills acquired by students during their education.
FilzBee’s implementation of selected projects will not only enrich the university’s space, but also serve as a viable portfolio for young artists, which can have a significant impact on their future careers.
We decided to expand our cooperation with the University of Arts in Poznan, moving beyond individual projects and engaging in a broader initiative. This cooperation includes not only the aforementioned competition and the implementation of selected student projects, but also a number of other activities that will be presented in the near future.
We plan to share more details about this exciting collaboration soon, which aims not only to further support the education and development of students, but also to contribute to innovation and growth in the design and space acoustics industry.
This expanded collaboration with the university is another step in filzBee’s strategy to build strong and fruitful relationships with the academic sector, which benefits both our company and the academic community.

A new dimension in acoustics: how did we change the face of office space with PET felt acoustic ceiling?
A New Dimension of Acoustics: How filzBee changed the face of office space with PET felt acoustic ceiling
Behind every great architectural project is a team effort and a lot of creativity. However, what makes certain designs stand out?
Today we will tell you about one of our latest innovative ventures: the creation of a wave-shaped acoustic ceiling made of PET felt for a modern office space.
Why is acoustics important in an office space?
Acoustics are fundamental in any work environment. Suboptimal acoustic conditions can adversely affect the concentration, efficiency and well-being of employees. Therefore, one of the main goals in modern office space design is to ensure optimal acoustics.
Design process
Designing a wave-shaped acoustic ceiling is a unique challenge that required advanced knowledge, familiarity with the material we work with and precise execution. The filzBee team actively participated in discussions with the designers, and with their knowledge and familiarity with PET felt, we drew up prototypes that turned out to be a hit in 10 and a fulfillment of the vision they wanted to achieve in the interior.
Production and assembly
Using advanced manufacturing technologies, we have been able to create extremely effective and aesthetically pleasing PET felt ceiling panels.
The entire production process took place under the watchful eye of our experts, guaranteeing the highest quality workmanship. We developed an assembly system that guaranteed the desired effect.
Our summary
The wave-shaped acoustic ceiling project is more than just an assignment for us. This proves that acoustics and design can go hand in hand, creating a space that is both beautiful and functional. Thanks to the experience and expertise of the filzBee team, this innovative project has set a new standard in office acoustics.
What was gained by the acoustic ceiling?
Optimization of acoustics
By using a wave-shaped ceiling, it has been possible to significantly reduce noise and echoes, resulting in higher efficiency.
Aesthetics and functionality
We not only improved the acoustics, but also added a sleek, modern look to the entire space.
A balanced choice
The use of PET felt means the investment is also eco-friendly, which is in line with sustainability efforts.

Why do we love PET felt?
Environmentally friendly, functional, flexible, acoustic properties, lightweight, multicolored, beautiful, soft to the touch, interior warming, insulating, versatile, beautiful, hard, flexible, durable.... we could go on listing for a long time!
PET felt is a material that, for good reason, is becoming increasingly popular and appreciated, both among architects and users of a space.
The material combines a balanced design with a large selection of colors, a soft texture and the ability to absorb and dampen sound.
These qualities can be seen perfectly in the various applications of felt - its soft texture wraps the walls, and it can be used to create spectacular ceilings, partitions, office partitions, light fixtures and furniture.
How does it affect the environment?
PET (polyethylene terephthalate) felt, was ingeniously made from recycled plastic bottles. With an almost infinite supply of reusable materials, PET felt fabrics are a significant step toward keeping single-use plastic bottles out of landfills and oceans. In addition, felt materials can be reused or recycled after use, greatly extending the life of this material beyond its initial use.
The role of PET felt in design
Felt is one of the oldest fabrics known to mankind and over the years has found applications in many fields, from fashion and furniture to architecture, interiors and much more.
The recent resurgence of interest in felt has brought innovations in its production processes. Thanks to the infinite range of colors and the flexible forms that can be obtained by working with it , the possibilities of designing with PET felt are far-reaching.
A unique edition of
acoustic performance
Providing excellent acoustic properties, PET felt can absorb and dampen sound by reducing reverberation. The sound-absorbing properties of PET felt can take many forms. From overhead installations with soft undulating curves to more customized formations installed in targeted areas, felt fabrics can create sculptural configurations designed to manage noise control.
PET felt, combined with our extensive machine park, in which we have machines specially designed for processing this very material, offers great possibilities for creating beautiful and functional interiors and products.

A trade show booth that surprises.
A quiet, surprising space.
Our goal was to create a stand that would be a finished product that could be used in the interior.
We wanted to create a visual statement of our company that would amaze and show that the slogans on our flyers are not just a marketing slogan, but the true face of what we create every day.
The project was meant to surprise, to show non-standard possibilities, in order to spark the imagination of visiting designers and show them that together we can make unique interiors, and acoustic solutions do not have to be boring at all.
We designed the booth ourselves.
Thanks to the machines we have, our experience and passion for creation, we were able to create a curved structure that perfectly imitated wooden beams. We decided to use the same structure on the ceiling, but opted for a more traditional, simple form of beams that met the beams on the wall.
As a backdrop, we used black, smooth felt boards that deepened the acoustic comfort of the resulting space and provided a backdrop to the light wood grain printed on our structure.
"Is it real wood?" the most common question at the fair.
Visitors to the tragi, could not resist touching the beams and discovered with disbelief that it was not wood.
We have proven that PET felt is an extremely versatile material, and can be printed and molded to mimic a range of shapes and traditional materials.
Although it looks like authentic wooden beams, the material is lightweight, durable and easy to integrate into any environment.
This versatility also opens the door to exploration and experimentation. Design ideas that were previously limited based on material or budget can be brought to life.
The detail matters.
We believe that every element, even the smallest, must be developed perfectly, with attention to detail. It is from small things that one can infer how a company approaches its implementations.
Especially for the fair we have prepared new pattern books, this time the traditional color cards have been replaced by a felt puzzle, so the colors can be freely combined, taken out and mixed.
In order to show some sample designs of wall panels, we created special PET felt hangers on which we mounted samples of the panels we realized.
We wanted the display to be custom-made, aesthetically pleasing, and at the same time it also had to show our creativity and attention to every detail.
Thumbnails with examples of ceiling baffles hung above the counter illustrated the possibilities and provided a starting point for conversations about the advantages of this type of solution in the space.
