What AKUART does

AKUART is a Danish acoustic design brand founded in 2006, headquartered in Nordhavn, Copenhagen, that designs and delivers modular acoustic solutions for professional interiors. The core product family is the Supersonic Collection — wall panels, wall panel artwork, desk screens, floor screens, vertical suspended screens and mobile writing boards — alongside the Imagine curated acoustic art panels, the In Your Room modular room-in-room system, the Mojo Pinboard and an Akuart Custom Graphics Service for bespoke artwork and brand visuals. The underlying technology combines digital serigraphic print (with colour calibration for textile reproduction, image refinement and upscaling) with high recycled-content materials including Hydro CIRCAL 100R aluminium (100% post-consumer scrap, sub-0.5 kg CO2e/kg) and 75% recycled PET absorbers, engineered for disassembly so that canvases, absorbers and frames can be replaced independently. Class A sound absorption (αw 0.95, NRC 0.90) is independently verified by the Technical University of Denmark under ISO 354, and the range is certified under Möbelfakta, EN 15804 + A2 EPDs, Oeko-Tex Standard 100, REACH and EN 13501-1 B-s1,d0.

The company operates a sales-led, project-based B2B model targeting architects, interior designers and furniture resellers serving offices, education, healthcare and hospitality environments. Pricing is quote-based and unit-priced for made-to-order panels; the company earns revenue from one-time product sales plus professional services (custom graphics and design advisory) bundled into larger enterprise projects. Named enterprise customers include VU (VELUX), Carlsberg, Novozymes, Rambøll, Novo Nordisk Engineering, Sweco, Fritz Hansen, Jeudan, HUB Nordic (KLP), Copenhagen University Hospital, the University of Copenhagen and the Danish Building and Property Agency, alongside SME hospitality clients such as Mad & Kaffe and Coffee Collective. Production is based in Poland and Denmark for reliable European tender participation, with showrooms in Copenhagen and Aarhus and a US sales office in Long Beach, California.

The brand is built around a curated art-acoustic aesthetic through collaborations with named artists (Berit Mogensen Lopez, Line Jensen, Mette Colberg) and art print studios (The Poster Club, Paper Collective), and the Akuart Gallery platform. Senior leadership is led by CEO and Sales Director Bjørn Berthelsen and Creative Director Casper Sparsø, with functional heads across design and innovation, sustainability, marketing, project sales and internal sales. Ownership is private and undisclosed; no institutional investor or parent company is identified in the public record. The company remains privately held and independent, with no disclosed funding rounds, revenue figures, M&A activity or restructuring events.

Direct peers

• Offecct: Swedish acoustic design company (now Flokk brand) producing sound-absorbing furniture and wall solutions with a strong design and sustainability identity. Direct competitor in the premium Nordic acoustic-panel and furniture space targeting architects and corporate end-clients.
• Snowsound (Caimi Brevetti): Italian acoustic-panel brand by Caimi Brevetti specialising in textile-faced sound absorbers with customisable printed graphics for offices, hospitality and education. Closely comparable to AKUART's design-led, custom-graphic acoustic-panel approach.
• Troldtekt: Danish manufacturer of acoustic wood-wool panels for ceilings and walls with strong sustainability documentation (Cradle to Cradle, EPDs). Closest geographic and product peer to AKUART, serving the same Nordic and European architectural specification market.
• BAUX: Swedish manufacturer of acoustic wood-wool panels and acoustic tiles for commercial interiors. Directly comparable to AKUART as a design-forward Nordic acoustic-panel company selling to architects and enterprise clients in offices, education and hospitality.
• Abstracta: Swedish acoustic solutions brand (part of Lammhults Design Group) producing sound-absorbing screens, wall panels, and furniture for office and public interiors. Comparable to AKUART in product mix (screens, panels, dividers) and Scandinavian design-led positioning.
• FilzFelt: US-based felt acoustic products company (part of Wolf-Gordon) producing PET and wool-felt acoustic panels, tiles and baffles for commercial interiors. Comparable to AKUART in modular acoustic-panel offering and design-led North American specification market.
• Spigo Group: Spanish manufacturer of acoustic and architectural solutions including polyester and PET acoustic panels, baffles and screens. Direct peer to AKUART in modular acoustic-panel offering for commercial interiors across European and international markets.

Emerging players

• Soundtect: UK acoustic-panel manufacturer offering polyester and timber acoustic panels and baffles for commercial interiors. Partial overlap with AKUART in acoustic-panel category with focus on sustainability, but more limited design-customisation depth.
• Woven Image: Australian acoustic solutions brand producing PET acoustic panels, baffles and screens with a design-led approach. Comparable to AKUART in product mix (panels/screens) and design-customisation emphasis, with growing international specification presence.

Broad incumbents

• Ecophon (Saint-Gobain): Saint-Gobain-owned global leader in acoustic ceilings and wall panels serving commercial interiors. Broad incumbent offering overlapping acoustic-absorber capability but at greater scale and broader portfolio than AKUART's niche.
