Xorel Artform is priced and sold in box sets of the same shape, size, substrate, fabric, and color. Each box arrives at the job site securely packed and includes all installation and adhesive materials.

To place orders, request samples or for other general information, please contact Carnegie Sales Services, salesservices@carnegiefabrics.com, or your local sales representative.

Xorel Artform offers 21 shapes in a variety of scales and 3D options.

Memo samples are provided and can be requested through samples@carnegiefabrics.com or salesservices@carnegiefabrics.com. Quality samples can be loaned and mockups can be provided for large specified projects.

Xorel Artform is made with computer-aided manufacturing machines. Artform shapes are cut and then hand-upholstered with Xorel by skilled workers with 30+ years of experience.

Quiet-Core is a high performance acoustical substrate. It is a formaldehyde free substrate and has a lining on the back of the panel for easy handling.

Quiet-Core is not recommended for tackable use, however Quiet-Core Plus™️ is the recommended substrate when both an acoustical and tackable solution is needed.

Mi-Core is a dense mineral fiberboard made of inorganic materials.

Mi-Core is great when you need to be able to tack objects to the panels. Since it’s a dense material, Mi-Core is also recommended in high traffic areas where people may bump into the panels often.

Mi-Core is only moderately acoustical—it has an NRC rating of 0.3 wrapped in Xorel.

NRC stands for the Noise Reduction Coefficient. It measures how much sound the panel absorbs.

The Quiet-Core substrate has an NRC of 0.80 when wrapped with Xorel.

Xorel Artform Baffles have an NRC rating of 1.05.

Carnegie can only provide the NRC for Xorel Artform panels. Acoustical test results can be found here. Determining how much noise will be absorbed or mitigated cannot be done without considering all materials in a space; hard surfaces (ex. glass, concrete, etc), soft surfaces (ex. carpet, drapery, etc) as well as the size of the space. An evaluation like this can only be done by an Acoustician or Acoustical Engineering Company.

Yes, as long as the panels are the same shape and size.

Quiet-Core is available in 1” thickness and Mi-Core is available in 1/2” and 3/4” thickness. Artform 3D panels are 1 7/8” thick.

Xorel Artform 3D is available in the Quiet-Core substrate, and Quiet-Core is not recommended for tackable use.

No, the panel’s edges are fabric wrapped—all the way around to the back of the panel.

The bevel is 3/16”.

For transparent fabrics, we offer a white liner available for the Quiet-Core substrate. Mi-Core is not available with a liner, so it may change the fabric color slightly.

Square foot pricing is completely up to the designer. Xorel Artform is a flexible design system which can span a wide range of budget needs based on design, creativity and composition. Cost is relative to the area that’s covered and the shape and size affects coverage and cost.

We warranty Xorel Artform panels for a period of 5 years from purchase date. Any Xorel Artform panels that are defective in workmanship or materials (adhesive, velcro or ceiling suspension hardware*) will be replaced at no charge. Ordinary wear and tear, unacceptable temperature/humidity variation, poor installation methodology and abuse or neglect is excluded.

Xorel Artform is very easy to install using any one of the following installation methods:

• Quick Grab Method (wall and ceiling flush mounting)
• Quick Grab Concrete Method (wall and ceiling flush mounting)
• Velcro Method (wall flush mounting ONLY)
• 3M Command Strip Method (wall flush mounting ONLY)
• Horizontal Suspension - Tiled (tiling 3 or more suspended panels together)
• Horizontal Suspension - Individual (suspending panels individually)
• Vertical Suspension (suspending baffles) 

Installation materials are included with every shipment. In most cases, all an installer needs is a laser/level, caulk gun and hammer. Installation guides for all of the above methods can be found here.

Quick Grab adhesive is a construction adhesive that is VOC-compliant, with very low odor, so there is little to no off gassing. It fits standard caulk guns for an easy installation.

Panel subcontractors, wallcovering subcontractors, painting subcontractors and facility maintenance companies.

Yes, a list of Preferred Installers can be found here.

2 walls approx, 10’ x 10’, can be installed in as little as one day. This minimizes installation costs.

Printed installation instructions are included in every box shipment. Printable instructions can be obtained here.

Xorel Artform can be installed on flat and smooth concrete surfaces with Quick Grab Concrete. Textured surfaces could potentially result in an uneven installation.

All installation methods for Xorel Artform are permanent. When panels are taken down, the wall will need to be refinished.

If the purpose of cutting the panels is for an outlet box/recessed lighting, yes, Xorel Artform can be cut in the field. Xorel Artform should not be cut for any other reason (ex. scored and folded to fit a slight angle/corner, cutting to fit panels flush to the floor/ceiling/corners, etc). Cutting panels on-site for these reasons will void the warranty.

Yes, Xorel Artform can be installed on plaster walls using the Quick Grab Installation Method.

A lightweight piece of artwork (under 10 lbs) can be installed on the Mi-Core substrate only.

Xorel Artform can be suspended from ceilings. The panels would be manufactured with additional substrates and cable system, and they ship ready-to-install. Additional costs will apply.

Xorel Artform baffles are designed to be vertically suspended, however most of the Xorel Artform shapes available for wall application can be suspended in a horizontal orientation.

For horizontally suspended tiled panels, 8" minimum. For horizontally suspended individual panels, 12" minimum.

3" minimum.

Additional Xorel and Carnegie textiles allow for endless custom possibilities. Contact your Sales Representative or Carnegie Sales Services for all inquiries and cost projections. The Carnegie Creative Studio can assist in making your Artform vision a reality.

A custom shape concept can be submitted for review. Product engineers review the concept for proper tiling functions. If the custom shape can be upholstered properly, quotes can be generated. Minimums and design/mockup fee will apply and vary based on request.

Shapes Circle, Diamond, Flip, Hex, Tall Hex and Waveline can be cut in half (horizontally and vertically). Scale and 3D shapes cannot be cut in half.

Unlike “plain” standard wall panels (i.e. 4’ x 8’ rectangles) Xorel Artform panel shapes are not designed to fit flush. Much like “art”, Xorel Artform panels are set within the wall space. The placement and measurements for application are under the direction of the specifier.

The seam is a result of the uniqueness of Carnegie's Baffle Collection where our panels are two-sided, and it is encouraged to use textiles that compliment each other to create innovative design solutions.

Artform 3D is available in the Quiet-Core substrate and Quiet-Core is not recommended for tackable use.

Up to 2 colors per box can be specified on Baffles.
