Sound environement

It is not just concert halls that need proper acoustics.

Ruukki® Sound Environment solution is embedded in building envelope

Good acoustics are essential for wellbeing and work efficiency. Ruukki® Sound Environment offers load-bearing roofing sheets and cladding solutions ideal for sports arenas, industrial halls, schools, and commercial buildings. It reduces background noise, echoes, and reverberations, delivering sound absorption up to class A, αw 1,00 – the highest standard.

"Ruukki Sound Environment solution has garnered a lot of praise from the players and other visitors. It's pleasant to be here, and the sounds from the game don't bother you. It's great that we now have such a well-functioning sports arena here in Seinäjoki, Finland."

Creating optimal acoustic environment

A good sound environment makes spaces functional, comfortable, and productive. Ruukki® Sound Environment helps create acoustically optimized spaces that improve work efficiency and safety while reducing stress. The products use strategic perforations and sound absorptive materials to absorb reflections, reduce noise spread, and lower overall noise levels.

Nearly 40% of new buildings require repairs due to poor acoustics. Ruukki® Sound Environment, embedded in the building envelope, minimizes the need for additional absorptive layers inside. Its lightweight, modular design ensures faster, cost-efficient installation, adaptable for future sound needs.

Key benefits of Ruukki load-bearing acoustic roofs:

Integrated sound absorptive surfaces within the roof structure
Adjustable sound absorption levels from reflective to extreme absorption (class A)
Absorption layers easily added during roof construction
Cost-efficient design using same structural elements as normal roofs

Key benefits of Ruukki acoustic wall solutions and ceilings:

New acoustic element for partition walls compatible with sandwich panel system
Elegant perforated, acoustic cladding products for external walls and ceilings for improved indoor acoustics
Wall solutions reducing flutter echo
Enhanced sound absorption throughout the building envelope, improving also noise reduction

Using our acoustic load bearing sheets and acoustic claddings you will have full control of acoustic conditions indoors, achieving a productive environment for intended tasks. It is not possible to get rid of all noise sources from the environment, but you can effectively reduce the effects like noise levels, spread of noise, reducing accumulated background noise and therefore suppress many harms and inefficencies the noise produces.
