Challenge

Soundsorba was contacted by a school which was having sound problems in its multipurpose hall and classrooms, leading to difficulties with teachers trying to be heard and understood. 

Solution

Soundsorba carried out a free Reverberation Time Calculation to determine how much absorption was required to bring the time down to an acceptable level.

Echosorba® acoustic ceiling tiles and Wallsorba® acoustic wall panels were recommended as the most effective way to reduce the reverberation time and improve the acoustic environment.

Ecohsorba® tiles can be directly adhered to the ceiling, and the Tee-joint system for installing WALLSORBA® panels means that the panels can be cut to fit on site to accommodate fittings such as windows and sloping ceilings.

The acoustic panels were delivered and ready for installation within 5 days of ordering.

Outcome

The school was happy with the effect that the acoustic panels achieved, and the Wallsorba® panels also created a visually appealing finish.
