Genesis Products announced that Qwel Acoustic Ceiling Tiles has won the Jury Award for Best Ceiling Product in the Architizer A+ Awards. Made of sustainable PET fibers and recycled materials, Qwel tiles are an eco-friendly, easy-to-install solution to deliver bold style and deep calm to your spaces. Qwel Designer Acoustic Tiles make architectural PET solutions more attainable with options that make a statement and naturally manage sound.

The Architizer A+ Products Winners were selected out of hundreds of entries based on aesthetics, performance and impact. Selected by an illustrious jury of more than 200 practicing architects and designers from around the world, the awards consisted of 39 categories, with five finalists chosen in each category. Only one winner was selected for the Jury Prize in each category. The judging included aesthetics relevant to the design environment; performance, including innovative use of materials; and impact on both the environment and potential to embrace new technologies and design practices.

“We are very excited to win the Jury Prize in the Architizer A+ Awards for Qwel Designer Acoustic Tiles, which makes ceiling and wall PET solutions more attainable,” said Erin Curtis, VP of marketing and development at Genesis. “This affirms Qwel as one of the best acoustic tile products in the design world.”

Qwel ceiling tiles are constructed from 100 percent non-woven PET fibers and up to 50 percent recycled materials. The tiles provide outstanding acoustic performance without chemical after-treatments and are 100 percent recyclable. Durable and lightweight, each Qwel tile is thermoformed for lifelong shape retention and is a perfect solution for new construction or upgrading existing spaces. The washable tiles are dust- and shakeout-free, as well as stain-, mold- and mildew-resistant.

Qwel tiles are available in eight profiles and six colors that leverage shape psychology to enhance workplace affordances to improve productivity and well-being. Qwel Designer Acoustic Ceiling Tiles deliver improved clarity of sound to enable focus, collaboration and connection in a world of ever-evolving office spaces.
