Acoustics are essential to great design and occupant well-being. That's why we offer the highest quality acoustical ceiling tiles and acoustical wall panels. We can help you get the acoustics right in any space from wall-to-wall ceilings, exposed structure solutions, and walls - with no sacrifice to aesthetics and no limitations to imagination.

At Armstrong, we are acoustics.

Acoustical Solutions to Shape Sound

  • Continuous Ceilings

    Acoustics for Wide Open Spaces – and Private Ones

    For continuous ceilings, a combination of  sound absorption and sound blocking is best to reduce noise and improve speech privacy.  Armstrong TOTAL ACOUSTICS ceilings provide the ideal combination of sound absorption and  sound blocking in one ceiling panel. With Total Acoustics ceilings, you’ll have the flexibility to  meet acoustical needs as the space evolves.

    NRC + CAC = TOTAL ACOUSTICS

    High-NRC ceiling tiles are highly sound absorbing for a variety of applications, such as large open office spaces, auditoriums, or any space where a short reverberation time and same room speech intelligibility are essential

  • Exposed Structure Applications

    Acoustical Solutions for Industrial-Look Spaces

    Exposed structure spaces with no ceiling can  create acoustical problems – noise distractions  can make the modern workplace less effective and less productive, inhibit students’ ability to learn,  and cause dissatisfaction among restaurant  clientele struggling to hear and be heard.

    Attach treatments to decks and hide them or bring sound-absorbing design into the space.

    Achieve the best of both worlds – optimized  experiences in the workplace, educational facilities, and hospitality venues – with the right look and  less noise in your open ceiling space.

  • Wall Solutions

    Enhance Design and Acoustics with Walls & Partitions

    Acoustical wall treatments offer an additional option to further reduce noise. Measures for walls are stated in STC and NRC values. Adding wall treatments, in addition to an acoustical ceiling, can improve reverberation time by 87%.

    Sound Transmission Class (STC)
    A measure for rating the performance of a wall system as a barrier to airborne sound transmission between adjacent closed spaces, such as offices. STC is the wall equivalent of CAC.

Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC)
A measure for rating the performance of a ceiling system as a barrier to airborne sound transmission through a common plenum between adjacent closed spaces.
Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC)
A measure for rating the overall sound absorption of a material installed inside a building where sound waves strike surfaces at various angles of incidence.
Reverberation Time
Time required for a sound to decay to a value one millionth of its original intensity or to drop 60 dB. For example, an RT60 < 1 sec. is beneficial for good speech intelligibility, whereas RT60 > 2.5 sec is appropriate for symphony music.
