Sound Fighter Systems – RetroSorb® Sound-Absorptive Panels
RetroSorb® is a high-performance, sound-absorptive panel system designed specifically for outdoor applications. Whether you’re retrofitting existing reflective structures or seeking a robust solution for new installations, RetroSorb® delivers unmatched durability, acoustic performance, and long-term value.
Outdoor Sound Absorbing Panels
Why Choose RetroSorb®?
- All-Aluminum Construction:
Unlike traditional perforated steel panels, RetroSorb® uses non-corrosive, perforated aluminum. This eliminates the inevitable rust and degradation associated with steel, making RetroSorb® ideal for harsh outdoor and coastal environments. - Long-Lasting Durability:
Every panel is powder-coated with UV-stabilized finishes after perforation. This ensures no direct metal exposure, even in perforated holes and cut edges, maximizing resistance to corrosion and extending product life. - Exceptional Acoustic Performance:
RetroSorb® boasts a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of 0.95, verified per ASTM C423-09a. This means it absorbs up to 95% of incident sound energy, dramatically reducing unwanted noise from reflective surfaces such as concrete/CMU walls, metal buildings, and more.

- Lightweight & Easy to Install:
Weighing just 2 lbs per square foot, RetroSorb® is perfect for retrofitting onto existing structures and for applications where weight is a concern. Its design simplifies installation, reducing overall project costs. - Architectural Appeal:
Clean lines and premium color options allow RetroSorb® to blend seamlessly with modern designs, enhancing both function and aesthetics in commercial and industrial settings.
