CUSTOMIZED

Tailored dimensions

Blayde baffles are available in lengths of up to 3000 mm and can be adapted to suit specific project requirements. The system allows the baffle depth to vary from 130 mm to 400 mm, enabling different acoustic performance levels and visual expressions within the same ceiling concept.

Installation density can also be customized. Blayde baffles may be installed closely aligned for a continuous expression or with defined spacing between the baffles, both across the ceiling and along the length of the installation. This flexibility makes it possible to fine-tune acoustics, lighting integration, and spatial rhythm to match the architectural intent.

For a complete overview of available dimensions and configuration options, please refer to the Dimensions section.

ACOUSTICS

Add Acoustics

Gustafs’ unique Nano Perforation® technology is designed to deliver superior acoustic performance. The ultra-fine perforations absorb sound energy efficiently, achieving sound class C without compromising the visual expression. By exploring different panel depths, surface finishes, perforation patterns, felt colours, and material combinations, you can precisely tailor the acoustic and aesthetic experience to your space.

TIMELESS. MODERN. ACOUSTIC.

Design

Blayde transforms ceilings into bold statements — elegant, precise, and impossible to ignore. Its refined rhythm of linear blades creates a striking visual flow while mastering acoustic control. The design bridges tradition and innovation, pairing the warmth of natural wood with a contemporary architectural edge. Vary the wood species, tone, and spacing to shape an atmosphere that’s both calm and captivating — a true showstopper ceiling with purpose.

Acoustex felt colours >>

Combine with light

Combine with F-Line and bring light and acoustics together. A seamless, modular lighting system that aligns beautifully with Blayde and other Gustafs linear designs.

Combine Depth and Distance

By changing the depth and spacing of each Blayde, you can create different visual expressions and acoustic effects. Small adjustments in distance or height add variation and depth, giving each project its own character. This design flexibility allows you to create surfaces where form, light, and sound work together naturally.

INSTALLATION

Create with installation

Blayde is designed for architectural freedom.
Its flexible installation system allows designers to create a wide range of expressions—without changing the product itself.

By simply shifting the starting point of the installation and varying the distances between the blades, new patterns emerge. Linear rhythms can become dynamic compositions. Repetition turns into variation. The result is a surface that feels intentional, refined, and tailored to its context.

This flexibility makes Blayde especially well suited for projects where identity, flow, and spatial character matter. The system adapts to the architecture—not the other way around—while maintaining the precision, craftsmanship, and acoustic performance expected from a premium solution.

Blayde proves that thoughtful design is often about smart systems rather than complexity: one solution, many expressions.

MIXED PRODUCTS

Mix within mix

Mix Blayde with F-Line R lighting baffles to create a uniqe and acoustic ceiling. The system allows continuous lines of light that follow the same rhythm and spacing as the acoustic panels, creating a unified and elegant ceiling design.

With its modular concept, F-Line can be placed individually or connected in series for long, light lines. The result is a coherent architectural expression where light and acoustic design work together in perfect balance.

SURFACES

Veneer

Blayde can be combined with Acoustex acoustic felt to add both colour and character to the design. The felt is available in a wide range of carefully selected tones – from subtle neutrals to bold accent colours – allowing you to tailor the visual expression of each project.

By choosing different Acoustex colours, you can create soft contrasts, rhythm, and depth, while maintaining the clean linear look that defines Blayde. The combination enhances both the acoustic performance and the aesthetic value, resulting in interiors that feel balanced, refined, and acoustically comfortable.

COMBINATIONS

Mix dimensions and products

Combine Depth and Distance

By varying the depth and spacing of each Blayde, you shape not only the visual rhythm of the ceiling but also its acoustic character. Small shifts in height or distance subtly change how light moves across the surface and how sound is absorbed within the space. The result is a ceiling with depth and life — one that adapts to its architectural context and enhances the atmosphere. This design freedom allows you to create dynamic, tactile surfaces where form, light, and acoustics are perfectly balanced.

Here is a combination of Blayde and Feltfon baffles in different depths.

Gustafs Blayde acoustics

Quality in room acoustics requires a well-balanced combination of absorption and reflection. Gustafs Blayde will deliver the perfect solution for sound absorption and at the same time provide a good reflection and diffusion. Simply adjust the rooms reverberation by varying the spaces between the Baffles.

 

Ceiling installation acoustic values Blayde with Nano perforation®

If the Blayde depth exceedes the spacing between the Blaydes the acoustic value reaches class C.

This is already valid without Feltfon backings or other installations. With Feltfon backings class A is easily achieved.

 

Safety in our core

By covering a non-combustible fibre gypsum core with a thin layer of wood, we have created a natural and impregnation-free composition so that Blayde does not noticeable contribute to fire.

Reaction to fire – classifications Gustafs Blayde

The fire classification is depending on the installation and spacing, with a minimum fire class of B-s1,d0 up to A2-s1,d0.

The 5 natural benefits of our fibre gypsum core

Gustafs Blayde are produced with a high-density, reinforced fibre gypsum core having inherent properties regarding dimension stability, emissions, sustainability, fire safety and acoustics. These 5 fundamental demands in today’s modern building industry effectively eliminate most traditional wood-based alternatives.

Stability

Unaffected by indoor climate changes, fibre gypsum doesn’t bulge, warp or swell. The zero spacing in-line joints between the Blaydes will remain zero over their full lifetime.

Fire Safety

Non-combustible and homogeneous by nature, fibre gypsum doesn’t need chemicals to achieve its fire rating. A Blayde with wood veneer consists of 97% fibre gypsum and has a fire classification of A2-s1,d0 / B-s1,d0 depending on installation.

Acoustics

Acoustic solutions with a higher density are usually favourable compared to lighter materials. Fibre gypsum-based Blaydes are heavier than wood-based cladding materials and sound waves will not make them vibrate or resonate.

Sustainability

Thanks to the cores high density and low thermal conductivity, the baffles help to maintain room temperature, reducing the need for cooling or heating. Fibre gypsum contains of 94% recycled material. Even better is the fact that 17% of the total content comes from post-consumer recycled material, very important for the certification of buildings.

Emissions

Fibre Gypsum cores are extremely low emitting. One of the reasons is that they are produced without wood binders and automatically without added urea-formaldehyde or isocyanates. Blaydes, containing 97% Fibre Gypsum, will per definition have very low TVOC and formaldehyde emissions.

A versatile installation system with many benefits

Blayde is installed with the Capax Linear Mix system – a precision-engineered framework that guarantees perfect alignment and seamless integration. The system offers full flexibility to combine lighting, acoustic elements, and mixed materials, creating refined linear expressions without technical compromise.
