HQ Plaza in Morristown—recently reimagined by Gensler and delivered with construction support from Unity Construction—has officially unveiled its bold new interior, bringing warmth, functionality, and acoustic performance to its million-square-foot mixed-use campus for Hospitality, Retail, and Offices.
Originally, the project team considered traditional millwork baffles for the concourse, but ultimately they went with WoodLite™ Wood-Texture Acoustic Baffles—and here’s why.

1. Reduced Cost
Compared to authentic wood millwork, WoodLite™ delivers a rich timber aesthetic with significantly lower material and labor costs. That cost-efficiency made it possible to invest more in amenity-rich features throughout HQ Plaza’s newly activated concourse.
2. Lighter Weight & Easier Installation
WoodLite™ is engineered from lightweight PET felt, slashing the structural load. That means cheaper and faster installation, easier maintenance, and simpler attachment to the ceiling grid or substructure—without requiring heavy-duty supports. This lightweight advantage improves both build speed and long-term flexibility.
3. Warmer Tones with Acoustic Performance
Despite being a synthetic felt, WoodLite™ offers warm, natural wood-like textures and finishes. The PET felt base also provides high-performance sound absorption, helping control reverberation in lounge areas, dining zones, and collaborative workspaces. The result is a visually inviting environment that performs acoustically.
