The Benefits of Room Acoustics at Your School

Summer has arrived, the schools are out for summer which means one thing, classrooms, sports halls and cafeterias all get a makeover. It may only be that the walls need a new coat of paint or that the sports hall needs a total refurbishment, but how exactly would you know if your sports hall needed a full revamp. There are a few factors which may suggest a revamp, such as loud echoes making it difficult to speak amongst crowds of children and the collection of all the voices and sports balls gathered together making the noise last a lot longer than it should. So, how can you reduce this noise in such a large open area? By installing Lignotrend room acoustic panels supplied by Acara Concepts both across the UK and Ireland.

There are a number of benefits to choosing Lignotrend for your chosen choice of room acoustic panels for your school, here are a just a few reasons.

Improve sound quality and speech

The sound quality, speech clarity and intelligibility of your voice is greatly improved with room acoustics. Therefore, your speech will be a lot more clearer when talking to a large group of children, or even when you’re at one end of the hall and another sports teacher is teaching their class at the other.

Reduce reverberation and background noise

When you have over 30 school children in a sports hall who are excited to be out of their Maths and English lessons, you can only imagine the noise. Friends talking over each other and opposing teams screaming at each other while you’re trying to calm everyone down can be a struggle; however, with room acoustics installed the panels absorb any background noise and are proven to show reduction in echoes.

Breathable

The Lignotrend acoustic panels absorb water vapour and draw out any condensation making them ideal for sports halls and intense sports games.

High quality and durable

Due to the cross laminated structure of the panels, they will not wrap over time and are highly resistant to impacts from ball games, making them a long-term choice if you’re looking for performance and reliability.
