| New SoundScapes® acoustical canopies  Armstrong Ceilings has introduced SoundScapes® acoustical canopies, new accent canopies that combine the ability to provide spot acoustics in open spaces with an aesthetically pleasing visual. The sound absorbing properties of the new canopies help reduce reverberation time in the space below them. As a result, they are ideal for use in open plenum areas as well as over spaces such as workstations and reception desks. Use of multiple canopies improves acoustics even more. Aesthetically, the smooth surfaced, curved canopies offer a more visually pleasing option than other acoustical treatments, especially in high profile areas.SoundScapes acoustical canopies feature the Ultima® DuraBrite membrane or scrim. The scrim provides a very high Light Reflectance value of 0.90, meaning it reflects 90% of the light that strikes it. The DuraBrite surface also enhances the durability and scratch-resistance of the canopies. The new high recycled content canopies are also seismically approved. Measuring 47"x 76", the canopies can be installed as hills or valleys. Installation is easy, requiring no special tools or techniques. The canopies are simply suspended from the building structure. In addition, all hardware, cables and other required installation components are packaged with each canopy. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
