Acousti was established in 1943 by Clark A. Loomis, Sr., Arden Henry, and Don Quisenberry as an off shoot of Acousti Engineering Company of Georgia and became a separate independent Florida corporation in 1946 that introduced a wood cane fiber ceiling tile system. This innovative ceiling system propelled Acousti into the forefront of the ceiling materials market. As materials changed so did the industry leaders. Acousti Engineering Company grew with key manufacturers such as CertainTeed Ceilings Corporation, U.S.G. Interiors, and Armstrong World Industries. Acousti added value to the ceiling manufacturers’ products by providing services such as installation, field management and logistical activities associated with a successful installation.
