How WoodLite™ Helped HQ Plaza Morristown Cut Ceiling Costs by 50%

News & Updates

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.

HQ Plaza, Morristown

1. Reduced Cost

Compared to authentic wood millwork, WoodLite™ delivers a rich timber aesthetic while slashing ceiling costs by 50%, freeing budget for amenity-rich features throughout the 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.
