elevating standards at the SonaSpray training academy
see how our purpose-built training facility helps us deliver acoustic excellence
Here at Oscar Acoustics, we believe that the foundation of our success is our 45+ years industry experience – and the knowledge and expertise of our in-house spray teams.
That’s why we established the SonaSpray Training Academy: a unique initiative designed to equip our staff with the highest level of training, tailored to meet the needs of each and every project.
learning in a purpose-built space
With our move to our new headquarters site, the Oscar Innovation Centre, we have created a dedicated classroom space to support the SonaSpray Training Academy’s efforts. Here, staff can participate in one-to-one lessons with our team of spraying experts, benefiting directly from their experience in the field.
We’ve also built an on-site spray training facility, where our sprayers can further hone their skills before they reach our clients. This will serve as a vital resource for hands-on learning, reinforcing the principles taught in the classroom and ensuring our teams are well-prepared for the challenges of real-world projects.
a continuous training journey
Our commitment to training doesn’t stop once the initial programme is complete. Even after sprayers finish their formal training, we continue to invest in their growth.
Our Head of Quality Control works closely with staff, regularly inspecting their work to identify areas for further development. This hands-on approach ensures we maintain consistent quality across every project we undertake.
the results speak for themselves
ANZ Bank’s office in Canary Wharf, London is just one example of a project that exemplifies the exceptional training from our team of sprayers.
The design focuses on enhancing staff collaboration and fostering a sense of community. Placing its people at its centre, the workspace is arranged into different activity zones. This fluid, relaxed approach allows for both flexibility and versatility, creating a sense of flow throughout the entire office.
An effective acoustic solution was essential and to manage the spread of noise throughout this open-plan design; architects TP Bennett specified our SonaSpray® K-13 acoustic spray.
Once applied to ceilings, this seamless acoustic finish absorbs sound energy instead of reflecting it, enabling spaces to remain relaxed and productive.
And, thanks to the expertise and precision of our spraying team, this treatment not only significantly minimised noise but also seamlessly integrated with the building’s modern aesthetic.
Mariachiara Dal Pozzo, Associate Director, TP Bennett, said:
“We have used SonaSpray on several other projects and it’s quickly become our go-to product.
Having used a competitor product recently, we noticed a drop in standard – and only SonaSpray delivers both in terms of aesthetics and sound management. The finish on the project was exceptional and hides any imperfections, making it as visually strong as it is at reducing noise.”
