JCW Acoustic Supplies Offers Specialist Acoustic Support For Education Projects

Soundproofing For Schools And Educational Buildings

This year’s Building Schools Exhibition & Conference (BSEC) gave visitors the opportunity to view the comprehensive range of products and services available from the UK’s leading supplier of acoustic insulation products. Architects, contractors and other construction professionals involved in education projects visited stand No: 254 to find full details of the doors, reverberation panels, ceiling tiles, flooring and many other acoustic insulation products available from JC Wilkins.

Available on the JCW Acoustic Supplies stand was the new Guide to Acoustic Panels and Doors which has recently been published. This document underlines the company’s prominence in the education sector and is designed to simplify the specification of effective acoustic solutions for schools, colleges, universities and other educational establishments. It details the effects of acoustics on the types of rooms typically found in these buildings, and also gives guidance on the type of products which can be used to modify room acoustics effectively. It also makes special reference to the legislation laid out in Building Bulletin BB93 (part of the Building Regulations).

Among the individual products displayed on Stand 254 were:

• The JCW Acoustic Supplies Echo Panel and high specification Echo Fabric acoustic panels. Suitable for use on walls and ceilings, these products provide excellent methods of absorbing noise and reducing reverberation times and can transform a previously unsuitable room into a quiet and practical learning environment.
