Project Spotlight: Acoustic Precision at the New Orleans Superdome
Installed throughout the New Orleans Superdome, CARVART GUSTAFS Linear Rib in Oak brings sophisticated warmth and technical performance to a high-traffic, high-energy environment. The oak veneer adds texture and tonal richness, softening structural lines and enhancing the user experience across lobbies, lounges, and concourses.

This wasn’t simply cladding. It required seamless visual integration, engineered sound control, and field flexibility. CARVART delivered a solution that met exacting specs: ASTM E84 Class A fire rating, exceptional NRC sound absorption, and a sustainable non-combustible gypsum core—without compromising clean, minimalist intent.
Pre-engineered panels and GUSTAFS’ proprietary concealed mounting system ensured fast, accurate installation across expansive surfaces. What emerges is not just acoustic coverage—but an architectural presence that shapes how sound moves, how light lands, and how space is perceived.
Refined in appearance. Uncompromising in function. CARVART GUSTAFS Linear Rib is designed for demanding interior applications where acoustics, aesthetics, and durability must align.
Key Benefits:
- NRC ratings up to 0.95 for advanced acoustic absorption
- ASTM E84 Class A and Euroclass A2 s1 d0 fire compliance
- Sustainable fibre gypsum core with no added urea formaldehyde
- Concealed mounting system for seamless installation
- Nature and Gemini veneer finishes for consistency and longevity
Now specified in Chase Sapphire Lounges, premier stadiums, and institutional spaces, CARVART GUSTAFS Linear Rib helps transform walls into acoustic instruments, controlling sound, guiding ambiance, and enriching the built environment.
