Patent ID: 12006683

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates generally to fiberglass panels, for example, suitable for acoustic ceiling surfaces. The present disclosure relates more particularly to an acoustic panel having a top surface, a bottom surface, and a perimeter edge. The acoustic panel includes a layered fiberglass panel body including a core fiberglass layer and a high density fiberglass layer secured to a lower face of the core fiberglass layer. The high density fiberglass layer has a higher density than the core fiberglass layer. The layered fiberglass panel body includes an outward projection at the perimeter edge of the acoustic panel that is formed by the high density fiberglass layer and a portion of the core fiberglass layer. A supporting perimeter frame extends around the outer edge of the core fiberglass layer, and the outward projection of the layered fiberglass panel body extends outward beneath the supporting perimeter frame.
