Suspended Absorbers

Description
Suspended Absorbers are manufactured from open cell melamine foam or glass fibre. Plain melamine foam absorbers are supplied with corkscrew hangers, whilst glass fibre absorbers are encapsulated in white Tedlar PVF film or glass cloth with a 50mm semi-rigid top-flap, fitted with two eyelets for fixing.
They are designed to reduce reverberant noise in large areas. Reflected sound waves from roofs and walls are absorbed by both sides of the Suspended Absorbers resulting in noise reductions, up to half the measured reverberant sound level.
Suspended Absorbers can also be enclosed in materials suitable for use in hygienic applications subject to minimum order requirements.

Colour£ºWhite

Melamine foam absorbers can be spray painted to any RAL colour. Further detail available on request.

Design
Highly qualified technical engineers are available to work with clients and designers to calculate the volume of Suspended Absorbers required to achieve specified performance requirements and to discuss spacings and fixing methods.

Application
Melamine foam Suspended Absorbers are used extensively in swimming pools, sports halls, ice rinks, leisure centres, children¡¯s nurseries, galleries and foyers.
Glass fibre Suspended Absorbers tend to be used for more industrial applications e.g. engineering workshops, food factories, bottling halls, manufacturing plants etc.

Temperature
Suspended Absorbers are suitable for use at normal building temperatures.

Fire Performance
Melamine foam Suspended Absorbers comply with the Class ¡®O¡¯ requirements of the Building Regulations, when tested to BS476: Part 6: 1981 and Part 7: 1987.
Glass fibre Suspended Absorbers encapsulated in glass cloth are non-combustible, when tested in accordance with BS476: Part 4: 1970 (1984).

When suspended vertically in continuous rows at 600mm spacings, the sound absorption coefficients are as follow:

Dimensional changes may occur in Melamine foam Suspended Absorbers dependant on the relative humidity of the surrounding air. Allowances should therefore be made to overall sizes based on the anticipated moisture content of the Melamine foam Suspended Absorbers when in-situ.

Availability
Suspended Absorbers can be manufactured in a wide range of sizes and with a variety of surface finishes to meet specified performance requirements subject to minimum order quantity. Further detail available on request.
Melamine foam Suspended Absorbers can be manufactured in three-dimensional shapes and spray-painted to any RAL colour subject to minimum order quantity. Further detail available on request.
