Acoustic ceilings

In many ways a ceiling is the most appropriate location for sound absorbers. Generally, unlike walls and floors, ceilings have a large uncluttered surface area which lets the sound energy hit the full surface. It is important that the level of reflected energy is as low as possible and that the absorbed level is as high as possible. A void behind the acoustic ceiling contributes to increasing absorption at low frequencies and so does increased thickness of the absorbing material. A ceiling with high sound absorption performance can greatly contribute to achieving good room acoustics thereby contributing to a good indoor environment.

Rockfon ceilings provide high levels of sound absorption and can be used to create good room acoustics.
