The Nanyang Technological University (NTU) is an autonomous research university in Singapore established in 1955. The Lee Kong Chian Lecture Theatre was built in honour of Dr Lee Kong Chian, who was a prominent Chinese businessman and philanthropist active in Malaya and Singapore from the 1930s to the 1960s. The lecture theatre was refurbished in 2018.
The acoustics of the lecture theatre was designed to promote speech intelligibility amongst professors and students. Fabrix™ profiles ML 27S (Mid Load, 27mm Height, Square Profile), EL 27S (Edge Load, 27mm Height, Square Profile) and SS 27S (Side Snap, 27mm Height, Square Profile) were used in the construction of the fabric acoustic cladding on the walls of the lecture theatre.

The NUS Computer Lab was refurbished in 2016.
The acoustics of the Computer Lab was designed to promote speech intelligibility amongst professors and students. Fabrix™ profiles ML 27S (Mid Load, 27mm Height, Square Profile), EL 27S (Edge Load, 27mm Height, Square Profile) and SS 27S (Side Snap, 27mm Height, Square Profile) were used in the construction of the fabric acoustic cladding on the walls of the lab.
Frequently Asked Questions
Fabrix™ fabric acoustic panels and ceilings help reduce echo and reverberation, improving speech clarity and reducing distractions. This creates a better learning environment where students and teachers can hear and communicate clearly during lectures, discussions, or media sessions. The fabric-wrapped wall and ceiling systems are designed to deliver consistent acoustic performance while maintaining a clean, modern look.
Fabrix™ supports many track and panel systems such as Mid-Load, Edge-Load, Side-Snap, Modular and Magnetic configurations. Panels can be installed on walls or ceilings using square-edge, beveled-edge or round-edge profiles, giving flexibility in design and installation depending on room size and acoustic needs.
Behind the acoustically transparent fabric, Fabrix™ uses sound-absorbing substrates such as mineral wool or rockwool. These dense cores absorb sound waves — especially mid to low frequencies — delivering strong noise control and reverberation reduction. This makes Fabrix™ acoustic fabric panels more effective than simple decorative panels for educational spaces needing good speech intelligibility.
Yes. Fabrix™ has been applied to lecture theatres, media rooms, computer labs and other academic spaces. Examples include refurbishment of lecture theatres at a major university using Fabrix™ ML 27S, EL 27S and SS 27S profiles, as well as installation in media rooms to create acoustically controlled environments suitable for recording or teaching.
Fabrix™ combines high-performance acoustic treatment with sleek, clean fabric finishes and flexible track profiles. The use of stretch fabric systems — including beveled-edge or modular profiles — allows institutions to maintain a professional, modern interior design while ensuring acoustic comfort. Fabric panels and ceilings integrate seamlessly into interiors without bulky acoustic “clutter,” making them ideal for schools or universities that prioritise both function and appearance.
