Aged Care Acoustics with Lining Products from Supawood

Supacoustic acoustic panels in a sweeping curve extend the length of the common area successfully reducing noise reverberation in this large open area.

Innovative interior design for the elderly

SUPAWOOD acoustic and slatted lining products feature creatively throughout the common areas of the Dudley Foord House, The Ponds, an Anglicare state-of-the-art retirements village at The Ponds NSW.

Keeping in mind the care and comfort of the elderly residents, the design team needed to ensure noise reverberation was effectively addressed to help achieve a warm and safe homely atmosphere. Part of the design also involved a sweeping expanse of curved ceiling. As well as proven acoustic properties and the ability to easily be curved, they wanted a timber look lining which was very durable.

Having successfully used SUPAWOOD products in past projects, the design team were confident a choice of suitable products from the SUPAWOOD range would achieve all the required criteria.
