Whisper Baffle Acoustic Systems
Whisper Baffle Acoustic Systems are suspended acoustic ceiling solutions designed to control reverberation and improve speech clarity in large-volume and open-plan spaces where wall-mounted treatments alone are insufficient.
Engineered for the construction sector, architects, designers, and acoustic consultants, Whisper Baffles provide a high-performance, visually lightweight solution for environments with exposed soffits, high ceilings, and complex services coordination.
As part of the wider Acoustic Ceilings, Acoustic Panels, and Acoustic Solutions portfolio, Whisper Baffles are specified where efficient sound absorption must be delivered without compromising architectural intent.
High-Performance Suspended Acoustic Baffles
Whisper Baffles are vertically suspended acoustic elements that increase exposed absorptive surface area within a space, delivering effective reverberation control while maintaining airflow, daylight penetration, and architectural openness.
System benefits include:
- High acoustic absorption performance suitable for large and reverberant spaces
- Lightweight suspended construction for efficient installation
- Compatibility with exposed soffits and open services strategies
- Flexible spacing, orientation, and layout options
These characteristics make Whisper Baffles particularly effective in spaces where traditional acoustic ceilings are impractical or undesirable.
Engineered System Design & Integration
Each Whisper Baffle installation is engineered to suit the specific acoustic, spatial, and architectural requirements of the project.
Design considerations include:
- Baffle dimensions, thickness, and spacing
- Orientation to maximise acoustic efficiency
- Coordination with lighting, sprinklers, and HVAC services
- Integration with adjacent Acoustic Wall Systems
This ensures predictable acoustic outcomes and seamless coordination within complex ceiling environments.
