Wall Panels

  • SONEX® wall panels in willtec foam are easily mounted to walls or partitions to reduce overall noise and reverberation.

  • Anti-microbial, flat willtec panels installed in HVAC systems absorb noise caused by reverberating metal.

Ceiling Baffles and Ceiling Tiles

  • SONEX® Baffles are ideal in gymnasiums, auditoriums and multi-purpose rooms where they can hang from ceilings to reduce echo and reverberation.

  • PROSPEC® Barriers installed between a suspended and permanent ceiling stops outside noise from transmitting through the ceiling.

  • CONTOUR™ Ceiling Tiles for suspended ceilings make an attractive and effective acoustical environment.

ASA Group Works to Establish Minimum Classroom Noise Standards
Proposed standards for classroom acoustics are being developed by a work group of the Acoustical Society of America (ASA), in conjunction with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

The work group will recommend that classroom noise not exceed 35 decibels.  Many American classrooms today can be as loud as 50 decibels.  For satisfactory communication, speech should be 15 decibels above background noise.  The group will also recommend that reverberation time not exceed 0.6 seconds.

If adopted, the new standards could be incorporated into the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
