MPS Acoustics

What MPS Acoustics does

MPS Acoustics is a Plano, Texas-based B2B manufacturer of acoustic treatment solutions for commercial interiors. The company's product portfolio spans more than 60 SKUs across five categories: acoustic ceiling baffles, ceiling clouds and tiles (including integrated LED variants), wall panels (slatted, layered, etched, and flat), freestanding and hanging room dividers, and the VoiceArrest line of sound masking controllers, speakers, and ambient-noise sensors. All felt-based products are made in the USA from 100% polyester fiber acoustic felt containing at least 60% recycled PET, and achieve an ASTM E84 Class A fire rating via material infusion rather than sprays or coatings. The company supplements its standard catalog with a proprietary SHADES three-tier color printing service and a The Lab custom design service that delivers bespoke sizes, shapes, finishes, murals, and integrated lighting on 3-8 week lead times.

MPS Acoustics sells exclusively through B2B specification channels with no public pricing and no e-commerce. Distribution runs through regional sales representatives covering all 50 US states and Canadian provinces, plus A/V and furniture dealers, plus direct architect and designer (A&D) specification. Named end customers include Google, Apple, Pfizer, Amgen, American Express, Visa, Oracle, Boeing, FedEx, Gensler, HKS, US FDA, TX-DoT, Gunderson Dettmer, BHP, Hill-Rom, and Critical Start. Geographic reach extends across the US, Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico. Revenue is generated via project-based quotes across three streams: acoustic panel hardware sales, sound masking system hardware sales, and professional design services through The Lab. The VoiceArrest platform supports Crestron building automation integration and adaptive masking via ambient noise sensors, but the company's differentiation is rooted in materials, customization, and design breadth rather than software or AI.
