English term

baffle

English to French Other Construction / Civil Engineering
Given that the ceiling is such a significant surface, it is essential that a sound absorbing product is employed in this area to control reverberance and occupational noise.

A suspended ceiling is often a suitable solution, though if the thermal mass of the soffit needs to be exposed, rafts or "baffles" can be employed.
Est-ce que "déflecteur" peut être utilisé dans ce cas ? merci pour suggestions

baffle

I believe in this sense it really need to be 'baffle', since it's rôle is not necessarily exactly that of a 'déflecteur' — judging from what they are describing, I suspect it is more of a sound absorber. Perhaps your wider context will go on to explain more what these are intended to achieve?

déflecteurs acoustiques

not quite the same as "sound-absorbing panels"

" Acoustic Baffle Options
Sound baffles are all designed for ceiling suspensionThe following sound baffles are all designed for ceiling suspension in loud venues that require a reduction in echo to produce more favorable room acoustics. The baffle options vary based on core material, skins used to wrap them with, and performance value. Prices are listed on each sound baffle's home page, with volume discounts applying. "
