Spaces like village halls, golf clubs and other sporting venues with club houses often use their facilities for a broad range of events; presentation evenings, private parties, dinner dances and many more. One key factor that is often not thought about is the acoustics of the room.

For a multi-functional space, it is imperative to have a solid foundation of a good acoustic environment, this will enable your patrons to enjoy the events in equal measure.

Installing Solo Ceiling panels are a perfect way of lowering reverberation times without disrupting the look and feel of the environment. These can be placed over high volume areas, such as the bar or formal seating areas.

If you have a room with a moveable partition for certain events it is important to make sure that sound does not transfer between the rooms when seperated. The best way to do that is to treat the two rooms as separate spaces. Evenly distribute the acoustic sound absorbing panels in the rooms will allow them to work effectively when the full room is opened up.

With different fixing methods available you don't need to worry about vaulted ceilings, or changes of ceiling heights. our Adjustable Wire fixing can drop to 1500mm, and can hang the panels on angel. While our Absorber Bracket and Anchor fixing ensures a direct and tight fitting, both of these fixing methods can also be secured on an angle, perfect for sloping ceilings. Our third option for Solo panels is the One-point fixing, this option is great for spaces that have beams that you wish to fix to. Instead of having to fix to the ceiling from each of the four corners you guessed it, it will fix to the ceiling in one central point. Please note One-point fixing cannot be hung on an angle.

"From the time of order right through to delivery we received helpful and accurate information and advice, the panels arrived in a timely manner which meant they could be installed for our first big function of the year. The event went extremely well our most senior/deaf guests could, for the first time, hear what was going on. The feedback we have had has been universally favourable, not only for the impact on the acoustics of the room but how well the panels complement our décor. Overall we would 100% recommend That Sounds Better to anyone who has a similar issue with noise.” - Keith Hancock, Member of the House Managment Committee

"The Club House of St Augustine's Golf Club has always been noisy when full with members and guests. It was decided the best solution was to install sound reducing panels suspended from the ceiling which we purchased from That Sounds Better. There were some initial doubts about the effect they may have on the lighting and whether they would be effective enough, we are pleased to say they have reduced the echo significantly and look modern without impact on light in the room." – Brian Manton, Committee Member
