Troldtekt

Since 1935, Troldtekt A/S has produced cement-bonded wood wool acoustic panels in Troldhede in western Denmark. The panels are made from 100% natural materials; wood from Danish forests and cement produced by Aalborg Portland, Denmark.



The combination of wood and cement creates Troldtekt's unique sound absorbing properties, ensuring 
good acoustics in any room. Troldtekt acoustic panels offer the following properties:
- Good acoustics
- Healthy indoor climate
- Documented sustainability
- Effective fire protection
- Natural strength
- Flexible design solutions

The structure of the Troldtekt acoustic panels derives from the thickness of the wood wool. Troldtekt panels are available in four different structures: Extreme fine (0.5 mm), ultrafine (1.0 mm), fine (1.5 mm) and coarse (3 mm).

Architecturally, the characteristic structure of Troldtekt panels lends new opportunities for contrasting the smooth materials used in the building project. Troldtekt is available in a high number of combinations that vary according to surface structure, edge, installation system, color, dimension and thickness.


The sustainable option

Troldtekt acoustic panels have achieved Cradle to Cradle certification in the “Silver” category. This certifies that Troldtekt contains no hazardous substances and therefore can be returned to nature as compost.



Furthermore, Troldtekt is certified according to the FSC® standard, which guarantees that the wood used for the production of Troldtekt acoustic panels can be traced back to responsible forestry operations. Troldtekt achieved FSC-certification in 2013, and since 2018 has been approved to supply products in the ‘FSC 100%’ category, which means that all the wood in a single acoustic panel complies with the FSC requirements.



Additionally, Troldtekt panels are certified according to the best indoor climate categories by Danish Indoor Climate Labelling, meaning that Troldtekt panels do not contain harmful materials or potential allergenics. In 2010, Troldtekt was awarded the Danish Building Industry Environment Award in recognition of the company’s focus on environment during the entire product life cycle. When choosing Troldtekt products for sustainable buildings, specifiers can be assured that Troldtekt can provide assessors and auditors documentation for the international sustainable building certifications LEED, BREEAM and DGNB.



History

Troldtekt A/S was founded in 1855 in Aarhus as a family business by the name of A/S L. Hammerich & Co. (later L. Hammerich A/S). Today, the company is one of the oldest contemporary public limited companies in Denmark.



In 1935, Troldtekt took a step forward and expanded its business from being distributor of building materials to being a producer. The main product was Troldtekt cement-bonded wood wool panels made from natural materials, produced in the small town, Troldhede, in western Jutland. During the years, the production plant has been upgraded and modernised, so today Troldtekt has a modern, efficient and environmentally conscious production. 



Troldtekt’s headquarters including marketing and administration are situated in Aarhus, Denmark. In 2015, Troldtekt Deutschland GmbH was founded as the first foreign branch in Hamburg and in the following year the Swedish subsidiary Troldtekt AB in Malmö was added. Internationally, Troldtekt products are sold through a well-developed dealer network, whereas in Denmark, they are sold through builders merchants.

Troldtekt acoustic solutions for ceiling and wall cladding are among the leading products to ensure good acoustics. Troldtekt A/S addresses a wide target group with its numerous acoustic solutions for buildings such as offices, businesses, schools, institutions, sports centres and private residences. Today’s choice of quarry tiles, wooden floors, smooth-faced walls, and sloping ceilings, requires that the acoustics work. For that reason, more and more people choose to upgrade their ceiling by installing Troldtekt.
