The design solutions are mass-produced, drawing on CNC technology. This means they are competitively priced. All the solutions result in ceilings or walls that you experience as a large cohesive unit. It’s not about the panel, but the surface.
New Troldtekt design solutions win distinguished German design award

These diametrically opposite properties give architects the greatest possible flexibility at a reasonable price – and using all-natural materials. Troldtekt design solutions bring together well-founded material know-how with unique innovative strengths.
Troldtekt acoustic panels are Denmark’s best building component. This was made clear after Troldtekt CEO Peer Leth received the Building Component Award 2017.Every other year, the VILLUM FUND and the VELUX FOUND present the Building Component Award to one or more persons who have made a noteworthy contribution to furthering the understanding of the value and significance of building components, including their practical use in daily living.
In 2017, the award went to Troldtekt because of the significant development of its product and the company itself – with Peer Leth at the helm – over the past 12 years.
In a statement from the Award Committee, it says: "Troldtekt acoustic panels are a showcase example of how a relatively simple building component with limited applicability has been developed further, so that the panels today combine aesthetics and functionality, and can be used in many different types of construction projects”.
The award comes with a DKK 100,000 prize, which now becomes the starting capital of a combined showroom and museum about Troldtekt.
