about this project

Our managing director, Ben Hancock received a call out of the blue, from a LinkedIn contact – Executive Acoustic Consultant from SRL (Sound Research Laboratories).

He was working on a large waste processing facility for Balfour Beatty that had specified an acoustic panel system to be installed on the walls to reduce the industrial noise in the space.  He told Ben that these systems were expensive and were going to take a long time to install, meaning the install of the machinery would be delayed. He was looking for an alternative product that would be effective, economical, and quick to install and wanted to know more about our SonaSpray range of recycled and fire-rated acoustic sprays.

Saving time and money with SonaSpray

Following their conversation, Oscar’s provided a quotation for leading international infrastructure group – Balfour Beatty recommending our SonaSpray K-13 acoustic ceiling spray in grey to acoustically treat and decorate the industrial space.

Oscar won the project, spraying over 9,000m2 of SonaSpray onto profile deck throughout the  entire warehouse facility. We halved the original price of the acoustic panel systems and saved Balfour over £300k.

SonaSpray is the ultimate product for acoustically treating and decorating entire buildings, quickly and economically. We were able to apply SonaSpray much faster than the acoustic panel systems, meaning the machinery installation wasn’t delayed.

Not only is SonaSpray extremely efficient in absorbing sound directed towards the ceiling it is also excellent at reflecting the light, making the factory area much brighter. The sprays provide an acoustic decorative finish with little to no required maintenance in a colour that was less likely to show the factory dirt and dust.

The SonaSpray range also achieves class-leading fire and sustainability credentials. The range exceeds the latest fire safety requirements set under the updated Fire Safety: Approved Document B, providing no droplets and almost no smoke to help facilitate safe escapes in emergencies. It is also recognised by a host of third-party sustainability certifications, including BREEAM, SKA and Living Building Challenge and more.

SonaSpray for economical industrial noise control

Acoustic treatment in industrial spaces reduces noise pollution and improves employee safety and comfort. It minimises hearing damage risks and enhances communication, leading to fewer accidents and increased productivity.

SonaSpray effectively reduces echo and reverberation in any space, creating a pleasant work environment and reducing stress and fatigue. By absorbing sound rather than reflecting it, SonaSpray cost-effectively creates a calmer warehouse environment that’s safer for employees.

As experts in industrial acoustic treatment, we know all about the steps employers can take to reduce harmful noise levels. Our latest e-book explores the impacts of industrial noise on workers, highlighting the importance of reducing these risks for a safer and happier workplace.
