The expo’s judging panel is comprised of local architects, building managers and contractors who selected Rockfon’s product as one of the most noteworthy new products from this annual event.

Improved Privacy

A part of Rockfon’s Optimized Acoustics program, Rockfon’s Plenum Barrier board was created to reduce distractions and improve sound privacy between rooms in commercial interiors. This helps to maintain an effective and efficient work environment. When combined with stone wool acoustical ceiling tiles, Rockfon® Plenum Barrier Board can help achieve high sound isolation – tested up to STC 52 – between adjacent rooms without needing to build bulkheads above demountab1le partition systems or extend the walls to full height.
