So I was looking into a company to purchase my room's treatment from and GIK comes up a lot, but check these img. below:

My question is very simple, can that logo be removed without damaging the fabric of the panel?
Reason for me caring about this detail is that, as you can see in the last image, those "white specks" attract way too much attention from the eye ruining the room aesthetics, while in my opinion, acoustic treatment should be placed in such a way that it goes unnoticed as much as possible inside the room, possibly looking like decoration.
Imagine being surrounded by GIK logos, my room would be GIK room and not Marcus's room anymore, for how I perceive it.

This might seem like a silly question but for me this is very important and also a possible deal-breaker, so yeah, for anyone owning GIK panels please let me know :)
 
I'm sure GIK could just make the panels without the logo. Give them a call - they are pretty helpful.
 
Heat the sticker with a hairdryer on medium to soften the peel-n-stick backing adhesive and carefully remove it.

Have you attempted that before john?
Trying to determine if you where talking from personal experience or an educated guess on what might work :)

I have GIK panels and they have no logos. I didn’t order them that way so I must have peeled them off when I got them (I don’t like logos either). No damage or impact to the fabric.

Seems the way to go.
Earlier today I had emailed this same question to David Shevyn (CEO of GIK Acoustics) and he kindly replied to it, so I'll leave his answer on this topic for anyone else having this same doubt in the future :)

I have 19 of the GIK panels in my room without logo’s, the plastic/vinyl can be removed very easily and to be honest they’ll probably fall off before you get the panels mounted anyway
 
I have GIK panels and bass traps too, the logo fell off easily and I glued it. Anyway they are RUBBISH, see my post.
