POP panels are form-pressed plywood squares with raised circular bubbles. They come in a variety of veneers: cork, the most sound-absorbent, as well as birch, cherry, walnut, wengé, and the more recent black and white lacquer versions. Although it is primarily decorative, the raised circular shape helps absorb sound. The panels are laminated with a clear matte film for increased durability and easy cleaning. They are also environmentally friendly.
Available as eight- and sixteen-inch squares, the panels are durable and easy to clean. They are typically mounted with concealed aluminum lists (narrow joint strips) for neat edges. They can be used asan interior surface treatment for walls, ceilings, and partitions in offices, lobbies, residences, and retail spaces
