11 October 2022
Are you looking for acoustic wallcovering, but prefer something more luxurious than (wooden) wall panels? Then sound-absorbing wall textile made from high-quality fabrics is the perfect solution for your interior project.
Wall textile instantly adds a sophisticated atmosphere to a space, and thanks to the thickness of the rich materials, it’s ideal as acoustic wallcovering for hotels, restaurants, or villas. The wide variety of fabrics, colours, and patterns also offers many design possibilities.
Dutch Walltextile Company (DWC) has specialised in luxury wall textiles since 2014. From our factory in Amsterdam, we produce wallcoverings from exclusive materials and collaborate with interior professionals worldwide on both residential and commercial projects.

Acoustic wall panels or sound-absorbing wall textiles?
Acoustic wall panels have grown in popularity in interior design. They offer a straightforward solution for improving room acoustics. Wood panels are popular, but synthetic wall panels are also common. Both types typically contain a fabric underlayer that dampens sound.
While these panels are generally effective, they often lack elegance. Design options—especially with wood—can be limited. Additionally, many panels only cover part of a wall, leaving interiors feeling visually unfinished.
The added value of wall textiles
If wall panels don’t fully meet your aesthetic goals, wall textile is a stylish alternative for enhancing a room’s acoustics. The richly woven, high-quality fabrics effectively absorb sound while offering a wide range of design options.
What immediately stands out in our collections is the rich assortment of fabrics, colours, and patterns, which we continuously update with new materials. You have extensive styling options to perfectly match the wallcovering with the design of the room. You can also combine various textiles for an elegant interplay of shades and textures.
Wall textile is more than just a pretty colour or pattern—it can enrich a room with a distinctive atmosphere. Create a warm, intimate feel or opt for a light and spacious ambiance. With bold patterns, you can even turn your wall into a statement piece that draws admiration. No matter the choice, wall textile always adds a luxurious touch through expert craftsmanship and refined materials.
The best soundproofing fabrics for wallcoverings
At DWC, we offer a wide range of wall textiles made from premium fabrics that enhance both acoustics and aesthetics.
A top fabric for acoustic wallcovering is velour (velvet) Velvet has delighted the senses for centuries and brings a lavish look to any space. Its plush structure makes it excellent at sound absorption.
Leather also naturally dampens sound and gives walls a unique texture and luxurious appearance. You don’t have to worry about animal welfare or size limitations—we work exclusively with sustainable vegan leather, which allows for wider panel widths (up to 130 cm) and avoids harm to animals.
Other suitable acoustic fabrics include jacquard, silk, and linen. rowse our collections to see the full range of fabrics, colours, and patterns. We also create custom colours and fabrics beyond the standard collection.

Acoustic wallcoverings in the home
Large rooms often suffer from poor acoustics due to sound reverberation. In villas or spacious homes, this can be problematic. The space may feel “too large” and lack intimacy. Echoes also create noise and make conversations harder when several people speak at once.
Acoustic wallcovering can significantly improve this. With our elegant fabric options, you not only enhance acoustics but also match the refined aesthetic of high-end interiors. You can vary styles by room—choose warm, dark tones for a cosy bedroom or fresh, light hues for a living room. And there are many more captivating combinations possible.

Office projectsApplying Wall textile
Installing acoustic panels is generally straightforward. However, applying wall textile is more complex and requires experience and skill. These fabrics are more dynamic than traditional wallpaper, and small errors or damage during installation can be hard to correct.
That said, you don’t need to worry when working with professional installers. We can connect you with our expert team. Our website also includes detailed instructions for processing our luxury wall textiles.
