Mars 95/30 and Juno High-NRC Panels combine industry-leading sound control, modern aesthetics and installation efficiency to support healthier, higher-performing commercial spaces.

As expectations for commercial interiors continue to evolve, acoustics have become a defining factor in how occupants experience a space. From open offices and healthcare facilities to schools and hospitality environments, designers and contractors are increasingly prioritizing solutions that support focus, comfort and occupant wellbeing without sacrificing aesthetics or constructability.

To meet those demands, USG is expanding its portfolio of high-performance ceiling systems with two advanced mineral fiber solutions: Mars High-NRC Panels 95/30 and Juno High-NRC Panels.

Mars 95/30 eliminates the need to choose between sound absorption and sound blocking. The panel remains the only mineral fiber ceiling panel in North America to achieve both 0.95 Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) and 30 Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC) performance in a single solution. The combination delivers balanced acoustical control for multifaceted commercial environments.

The dual-performance system helps reduce distracting reverberation within a room while limiting sound transfer between adjacent spaces, making it well suited for education, healthcare and commercial applications where speech privacy and concentration are priorities.

Beyond acoustics, Mars 95/30 was engineered with durability and design continuity in mind. Its fully encapsulated edge enhances panel resilience and longevity, while its nondirectional, monolithic visual creates a clean, cohesive ceiling appearance that supports modern interior aesthetics.

Complementing the Mars portfolio, Juno High-NRC Panels combine modern design with strong acoustical performance. Designed for office, healthcare, education and hospitality environments, Juno integrates within mineral fiber systems and coordinates with suspension systems to support streamlined installation.

The combination of acoustical control, durability and installation efficiency makes Juno a versatile option for projects seeking both performance and flexibility.

Together, Mars 95/30 and Juno High-NRC Panels reinforce USG’s focus on ceiling innovation by addressing the realities of modern building design: spaces must work harder, feel better and install efficiently without compromise. As acoustics continue to shape occupant experience and wellbeing, USG is helping architects, designers and contractors create environments that balance performance, aesthetics and functionality in a single ceiling solution.
