Expert Advice

Acoustic panels are vital for classrooms, where a clear and controlled acoustic environment is essential for effective teaching and learning.

Poor acoustics in classrooms, often caused by hard surfaces like walls, ceilings, and floors, lead to excessive noise and reverberation, which can make it difficult for students to hear and understand their teacher. This can negatively impact comprehension, focus, and overall learning outcomes, particularly for younger students or those with hearing difficulties. Acoustic wall panels are a highly effective solution, as they absorb sound waves and reduce echoes, ensuring that speech is clear and intelligible throughout the room. By strategically installing these panels, classrooms can create an environment that enhances communication between teachers and students, enabling better academic performance.

For classrooms with high ceilings or large open spaces, acoustic baffles and rafts are particularly beneficial. Suspended vertically from the ceiling, baffles help control sound waves that travel upward and prevent them from reverberating back into the room, while rafts, installed horizontally, diffuse sound to create an even distribution of acoustics. These treatments are ideal for modern classroom designs, which often emphasize open layouts and large windows but may inadvertently create noise challenges. In addition to improving speech clarity, the use of baffles and rafts can reduce background noise from activities in adjacent rooms or hallways, fostering a focused and quiet learning environment. Acoustic solutions also come in a variety of colours and designs, allowing them to blend seamlessly with classroom aesthetics or even serve as creative visual elements. By incorporating acoustic wall panels, baffles, and rafts, schools can create classrooms that are not only acoustically optimized but also visually engaging, promoting an atmosphere conducive to learning and engagement.

In addition to classrooms, we design and install acoustic panelling for a wide range of environments including meeting rooms, libraries, lecture halls, hotels, homes, gyms and fitness studios, conference rooms, church halls, cafés, village halls, swimming pools, sports halls, offices, recording studios, and restaurants.
