4 SILENCE IS THE GREATEST REVELATION. Lao Tzu

5 FUNCTIONALITY AND AESTHETICS IN HARMONY That's what we aim to achieve: perfect acoustics in perfect settings. In our fast-moving and challenging world, the demand for optimal room acoustics is constantly rising. Various studies show that room acoustics can critically influence individual well-being. Modern architecture tends to feature spacious, brightly lit rooms with hard floor coverings, smooth walls and large window areas. Not only do our jointless, smooth acoustic systems enhance the elegance of these interior designs they also provide optimum sound absorption for the comfort and well-being of room users. Our "Made in Switzerland" acoustic systems were developed in collaboration with leading architects and acoustics specialists, so exceptional room acoustics can be combined with perfect aesthetic appeal in buildings and rooms of all types.

6 Ceiling substructure AMF Silent baseplate s.a.c. basic s.a.c. topcoat GREY LINE Suspended jointless acoustic system The Grey Line system is designed for rooms where there is a suspended ceiling structure with a cavity. The sound-absorbing mineral panel is fixed directly onto the substructure. Groove-and-ridge joints between individual panels ensure a flat, uniform surface so the end result is perfect every time. The benefit: active acoustics can be integrated into room designs with suspended ceilings and there is no need for additional structures. 11

7 Concrete / Substructure Knauf SM 700 Pro s.a.c. suono acoustic panel s.a.c. basic s.a.c. topcoat YELLOW LINE Glued acoustic system The Yellow Line system can be mounted directly on ceilings and walls with no need for a substructure. The mineral-fibre acoustic panels deliver a system solution with maximum sound absorption. Minimal overall height and flexible application options make Yellow Line the ideal solution for a wide range of design options. This system is also an excellent choice for rounded and curved surfaces. 13

8 S.A.C. SILENT IN CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS Incredible versatility Room acoustics have to meet a very diverse range of requirements in modern buildings such as schools, restaurants, office blocks, concert halls and lecture theatres. Our acoustic systems provide architects, acoustics engineers and building owners with sound absorption solutions that ensure optimum results for each individual type of room use.

14 S.A.C. SILENT IN RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION Living space that looks - and sounds - good There is scientific evidence to prove that a room's ambience is critically influenced by its acoustics as well as its visual appearance. In terms of physics, sounds and noises are actually vibrations that impact our well-being. Our Acoustic System for Buildings creates harmony between both sensory stimuli what we hear and what we see go hand in hand.
