Philips LED wallpaper provides acoustic control

LED wallpaper is set to hit the market as Philips joins forces with Kyadrat Soft Cells to market a luminous textile product. The companies believe they can bolster productivity and well-being in workplaces with the product that will also provide acoustic control. The partnership will see Philips' addressable LEDs integrated into Kvadrat Soft Cells acoustic panels to enhance spaces with ambient light.

Henrik Holm, managing director of Kvadrat Soft Cells, said: "Philips is a natural partner for our business as we are both dedicated to encouraging well-being and developing solutions that positively impact peoples' moods. Through this partnership, we have developed decorative lower cases that truly bring spaces to life."

LED wall paper or wall coverings have been on the horizon for a number of years now but the recent agreement makes the idea a commercial reality.
