About

Design-led acoustics from Australia to beyond

 Zintra was originally launched in Australia by The Baresque Group in 2012, with the aim of combining beautiful design with industry leading acoustic solutions.

With the development of our manufacturing capabilities through Baresque Factory in Australia, we identified an opportunity to combine creativity with established fabrication skills to create innovative acoustic products.

With Baresque’s long connection to the US market and suppliers, and a close affinity with their vision for culture and design, Zintra launched into the US in 2015. This was followed by an expansion into Europe in 2019, and today we now have strong distribution networks across Canada and Asia.

Adapting to ever-evolving spaces

As the world continues to change, so do the spaces we live, work and learn in. Hybrid working, collaborative learning and evolving social dynamics have driven the need for adaptable open spaces. These spaces often come with poor acoustics which make it hard to communicate and difficult to concentrate. This is why Zintra was created.

At Zintra we pride ourselves with producing quality and design-led acoustics that don’t cost the earth. Our hope is that it helps designers and architects create unique indoor spaces that meet their client's needs whilst providing comfort in any commercial space with excellent design impact and acoustic benefits.

People and planet: from local to global vision

Localized operations in Australia and USA means we're ensuring that we minimize energy consumption and the need for carbon-intensive transportation.

Over the years, the Zintra team have worked hard to minimize our environmental impact on the world. We're proud of our numerous eco certifications that help us contribute to healthy and sustainable interiors – HPD, Red List Free, Declare, and Greenguard Gold.

We are class leading in our recycled content, with our PET being made of 100% recyclable content. That's 60% post-consumer recycled fibre, 35% pre-consumer fibre, and 5% bio-based fibre, ensuring that we meet the Global Recycled Standard.

Design innovation and beyond

Over the years, we've continually challenged ourselves to push the boundaries of acoustic achievement, design and technology. In doing so we have launched a number of innovative products - notably Zintra Emboss, Organic Etch, and Timber & Sticks.

We view ourselves as more than just a manufacturer and supplier. We work closely with our distributors, designers, engineers and clients to learn, be inspired and to create industry-leading products for the spaces of tomorrow.
