Yes. Acoustic panels are proven to work — they absorb sound energy, reducing echo and controlling reverberation in a room. Without acoustic treatment, sound bounces around hard surfaces such as glass, plaster, concrete, or wood, creating a noisy and tiring environment. Panels are made from sound-absorbent materials that trap and dissipate this energy. The result is speech clarity, calmer background noise levels, and a more productive atmosphere. At Resonics, we only use panels tested in independent acoustic laboratories, ensuring their performance is certified and measurable. With more than 5,000 completed projects across the UK and Europe, we’ve seen first-hand how transformative they can be in offices, schools, restaurants, and community spaces.

Almost anywhere. We install acoustic solutions in:

• Offices and boardrooms
• Classrooms and lecture halls
• Restaurants and cafés
• Village halls and community centres
• Recording studios and performance spaces
• Homes and residential developments
• Swimming pools

Any space with hard, reflective surfaces can benefit. We’ve delivered over 5,000 installations across the UK and Europe — proving there’s no environment where good acoustics don’t matter.

Yes. All panels we install are tested to meet international fire safety standards. Most are rated to EN 13501-1:2007+A1:2009 (Class B-s1,d0) or equivalent. This ensures they do not contribute to flame spread or smoke production.

Additionally, many panels are low-VOC certified, non-toxic, and safe for use in sensitive environments such as schools, healthcare spaces, and homes. At Resonics, we only work with manufacturers that prioritise safety and compliance.

It depends on the type of panel and the space. Wall panels can often be bonded directly with adhesives or mounted using concealed clips, making them relatively straightforward. Where full coverage is needed, panels will require cutting/trimming which is where experience and skill is required. Ceiling rafts and baffles require suspension kits and safe access equipment — meaning professional installation is recommended.

At Resonics, our in-house fitting teams have completed over 5,000 installations, ranging from single-room projects to large corporate offices. All staff carry CSCS cards, and our supervisors are SSSTS/SMSTS certified. We also have IPAF specialists for high-level access. While DIY installation is possible for small projects, professional fitting ensures safety, compliance, and the best acoustic results.

Prices vary depending on size, material, and finish, but as a very rough guide:

• Wall panels: from £80–£200 each
• Ceiling rafts: from £150–£400 each
• Baffles: from £60–£120 each

Installation costs are additional and depend on project complexity. The best way to get an accurate price is through our free site survey and quotation.

While acoustic treatment is an investment, it quickly pays back in improved productivity, wellbeing, and customer satisfaction. In offices, better acoustics reduce distractions and boost concentration. In restaurants, they improve ambience and encourage repeat visits.

Yes — to a degree. Panels absorb sound within a room, reducing how far speech travels. However, for true speech privacy between rooms, soundproofing or sound masking is usually needed. Many of our projects combine both absorption and masking for the best results.

Yes. Our proposals include predicted reverberation times (RT60) based on room dimensions and materials. Post-installation, we can carry out acoustic testing to verify performance. All products come with manufacturer test certificates showing absorption coefficients.
