Office with wood ceiling

Sound control is of vital importance inside any educational institution, as noise can negatively impact student’s ability to concentrate and learn. Acoustical interior products are scientifically proven to reduce reverberation rates, thus improving speech intelligibility. Acoustical Solo planks with Dark Core, Ash natural wood veneer and Type 16 grooving on the face were chosen for the Fultonvale Elementary Junior High School to help mitigate noise. Grooving patterns and perforation on Solo planks reduce echoing and help to deliver a crisp sound, while the natural wood adds warmth and a beautiful wall to ceiling finish.
