Expert Advice

Acoustic panels are crucial for sports halls, where large, open spaces and hard, reflective surfaces create significant sound challenges.

The nature of sports activities often generates high levels of noise, including bouncing balls, whistles, and shouting, which reverberate off walls, ceilings, and floors. This excessive echo and reverberation can make it difficult for participants to communicate effectively, hear instructions from coaches, or understand announcements over a PA system. Acoustic wall panels are an excellent solution for these issues, as they absorb sound waves and reduce echoes, improving the overall acoustic quality of the space. By strategically placing these panels on walls, sports halls can ensure clearer communication and a more enjoyable experience for both participants and spectators.

In addition to wall panels, acoustic baffles and rafts are particularly effective in addressing the unique challenges posed by the high ceilings typical of sports halls. Baffles, which hang vertically, and rafts, suspended horizontally, absorb sound that would otherwise travel upward and reverberate throughout the hall. These ceiling-mounted solutions are ideal for managing the large volume of sound generated during sports activities and ensuring that it does not overwhelm the space. By combining wall panels with baffles and rafts, sports halls can significantly improve sound control, creating an environment that is not only more functional for sports but also suitable for other events, such as community gatherings or performances. Furthermore, modern acoustic solutions are available in durable, visually appealing designs that can enhance the hall’s aesthetic while withstanding the demands of a sports environment. This combination of noise control and design flexibility makes acoustic panels, baffles, and rafts a vital investment for optimizing the functionality and comfort of sports halls.

In addition to sports halls, 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, classrooms, church halls, cafés, village halls, swimming pools, offices, recording studios, and restaurants.
