Classroom acoustics: room for every way of learning
Listening to the teacher. Sharing ideas with classmates. Working through a task independently. A classroom brings different ways of learning together throughout the day.
Explore how DAMPA Space creates smaller places to work within the classroom, while acoustic wall panels and ceiling rafts help reduce reverberation. Combine sound absorption, flexible functions and durable metal design in spaces made for everyday school life.
Make room for the whole class to listen
An explanation should reach the whole class, wherever pupils sit. When voices reflect between hard surfaces, lingering sound can make words overlap and speech harder to follow.
Acoustic wall panels and ceiling rafts help reduce reverberation, supporting clearer communication during teaching and discussion. When the activity shifts to individual work, DAMPA Space adds the possibility of a smaller, screened workspace within the classroom.
Together, these solutions bring sound absorption and flexibility into a room that needs to accommodate many activities throughout the day.
DAMPA Space: A room in the room
Make space for individual work without separating pupils from the classroom. DAMPA Space unfolds from the wall, combining an integrated desk with sound-absorbing panels that provide acoustic and visual screening.
Open it for reading, working through an assignment or taking a moment away from the surrounding activity. Fold it back when the class needs the space for something else.
An optional bulletin board adds room for teaching materials and pupils’ work, bringing several everyday functions together in one durable, multifunctional element.
Keep room for teaching
Whiteboards, windows, storage and displays all have a place in the classroom. Acoustic treatment needs to work alongside them – and can bring additional functions of its own.
Our magnetic steel wall panels combine sound absorption with a surface for displaying teaching materials, timetables and pupils’ work using magnets. Ceiling rafts introduce sound absorption overhead, keeping walls available for other classroom activities.
Together with DAMPA Space, these solutions bring acoustics and practical functions into the room. The choice and placement depend on the classroom’s layout, existing acoustic treatment and installation conditions.
Durable by nature. Colourful by choice.
Classrooms are busy places, and the products within them need to stand up to everyday use. From DAMPA Space to our acoustic wall panels and ceiling rafts, durable metal surfaces bring robustness to the learning environment.
Combine that practicality with colours that complement the classroom or give it a more playful character. Our metal acoustic solutions can be supplied in all RAL colours, with digital print available on selected wall products.
Bring sound absorption, useful functions and lasting design together in a space made for pupils and teachers.
Frequently asked questions
-
What makes DAMPA Space different from other acoustic solutions?
DAMPA Space combines sound absorption with an integrated desk and fold-out panels that create a smaller workspace within the classroom. The panels provide acoustic and visual screening, then fold back against the wall when not in use.
An optional bulletin board adds another practical function, making Space a multifunctional element for everyday learning activities.
-
How much sound absorption does our classroom need?
The amount depends on the room’s size, surfaces, furnishings and existing acoustic treatment. How the classroom is used also matters, from whole-class teaching to group discussions.
Read our article on school acoustics for an introduction to reverberation, background noise and the considerations involved in choosing sound-absorbing solutions.
-
Can we display teaching materials on the acoustic wall panels?
Our magnetic steel wall panels allow you to attach teaching materials, timetables and pupils’ work using magnets.
Keep the extent of coverage in mind: covering large areas of the perforated surface with other than paper can affect sound absorption.
Contact us if you have questions about using a particular panel as a display surface.
-
Are metal acoustic solutions suitable for everyday school use?
Metal provides a robust, durable outer surface, making it a practical choice for frequently used learning environments.
DAMPA Space, wall panels and ceiling rafts combine this durability with sound absorption and design options.
