As Tony notes below, acoustic information sheet is probably better, as a data sheet is really a "fiche technique".

neutral  Tony M: Possibly (probably?) not to do with actual room acoustics, but sound in general (e.g. isolation, etc.)

  -> Probably, if you think of hotel rooms :)! But joke apart and more generally (conference room, etc.). But clearly the real context is needed.

neutral  Tony M: Note that here, 'acoustique' in FR may not necessarily mean 'acoustics' in the usual sense in EN (the ambient acoustic environment in a certain space), but merely 'acoustic' in the singular, i.e. 'to do with sound'.

Thank you!

agree  Tony M: I'd possibly consider going for 'information sheet', to bring it closer to 'notice' rather than 'fiche technique'.
