ECHOSORPTION PLUS SOUNDPROOFING acoustic tiles are extremely lightweight sound proofing panels that provide a very high sound absorption performance. Echosorption acoustic tiles are particularly effective at reducing reverberated noise in schools, public buildings and conference rooms as well as stairways and other common areas within flats to comply with the latest Building Regulation requirements.
ECHOSORPTION PLUS superior performing stick-on acoustic tiles are acoustically more efficient and extremely lightweight sound proofing panels that provide a higher sound absorption performance. Echosorption Plus acoustic ceiling tiles are particularly effective at reducing reverberated noise in schools, public buildings and conference rooms. As they are also a Class 'C' absorber they are also suitable for stairways and other common areas within flats to comply with the latest Building Regulation requirements.
At only 30mm thick, these better sound absorbing Class 0 non-flammable sound insulating tiles are ideal for fitting to ceilings with minimum loss of height. Their ease of application and durability make them a popular choice for schools, offices, sports halls, music studios. lecture theatres, multi-purpose halls, interview rooms, shooting ranges and wide range of alternative areas where reverberated sound loss is required.
SOUND REGULATIONS Legislation has now been introduced to control noise and reverberated sound in schools and other public buildings as described in Building Bulletin 93 (BB93) as Part E of the Building Regulations. The Approved Document E also contains guidance on the installation of sound absorbing insulation to common areas of buildings such as found in flats. The easiest way to comply with these new requirements is to fit a Class C performance sound absorber on the ceilings of these areas. The requirement is to fit a Class C sound absorber to cover an area of not less than 50% of the ceiling area in the common area of all floors including stairways. PRODUCT ECHOSORPTION PLUS acoustic tiles are a high quality lightweight easy to fix sound absorbers designed for ceilings and wall surfaces. The panels are made up with a sound absorbing acoustic mineral wool core faced with a highly efficient sound absorbing painted surface. The tile is laminated to an aluminium foil backing to enhance stability. The edges of each tile is chamfered so no jointing strips are necessary. The high sound absorbing efficiency of Echosorption is due to the membrane oscillation effect of the product. It is resistant to mild damage and is relatively easy to clean. Our special contact adhesive is effective for bonding the product to practically any surface.

ECHOSORPTION acoustic tiles are a high quality sound absorber designed for ceilings and wall surfaces. The panels are made up with a non woven structured surface bonded to a sound absorbing non-flammable melamine foam laminated to an aluminium foil backing. If jointing is required, a 'T' joint trim is made from white PVC and can be used to finish off joints where necessary.

CUTTING - The panels are easily cut to size with a sharp utility knife. Light fittings and other services are simply cut around. This avoids the necessity of unnecessary removal and refitting. Clean cotton gloves should be worn when handling the tiles to avoid soiling.
Echosorption is simply stuck onto walls and ceilings with our appropriate adhesive. We recommend that adhesive is stored and applied at normal room temperatures when at all possible. Before application of the panels, ensure there are no holes or splits in the aluminium foil backing. If any are found, seal them before applying any adhesive.
Attention must be drawn to ensure there is no cold bridging on the substrate and that it is a 'warm' surface. Any cold bridging that can encourage damp may affect the cohesian of the product.
Due to climatic conditions, dimensional tolerance may vary by +/- 4mm. To minimise this, store the panels for 48 hours in the area they are to be used at normal room temperature before installation.
RECYCLING - The melamine foam resin can be recycled and is used once again in industrial soundproofing in acoustic panels. It requires no special waste disposal treatment and is free of synthetic and natural mineral fibre, halogens and CFC's.
