StoSilent Setting the tone in acoustics. Acoustic systems from Sto

The Leadenhall Building, London The art of the invisible Room acoustics Effective acoustic solutions are becoming increasingly important in modern architecture. Even during the planning stage, ways to positively influence the sound of a room as inconspicuously as possible is a major consideration. Ultimately, the way a room is perceived depends heavily on how it is heard, and seen, by those who use it. At Sto, we have been researching this topic for over 25 years. Our aim has always been to provide you with the means and materials you need to design acoustically perfect rooms that look as...

Pure Design Freedom StoSilent acoustic solutions Requirements for reverberation time, sound distribution or speech, intelligibility change depending on the way a room is used. Whereas cushioned silence is often valued in offices or lobbies, a concert hall often requires every sound, no matter how soft, to be heard. Acoustics are influenced by various factors, including the composition of floors, walls and ceilings, the ambient interior climate, the type of furniture, and the number of people. Thanks to our extensive research, our experience gained from all types of successful projects, and...

StoSilent Design Freedom Colours and Textures StoSilent acoustic systems allow you to experiment with colour and texture to achieve your preferred aesthetic. With three types of finish at your disposal, and a palette of 800 colours, the world really is your oyster. StoSilent Décor M The classic fine-stipple finish, StoSilent Décor M is spray-applied and can be tinted to match a wide range of shades from the StoColor system. This is the most popular finish in our range. StoSilent Top A trowel-applied ultrafine finish with slight metallic shimmer. Most suitable for smaller areas, it is...

Theatre Royal, York - Photo Credit: David Williamson Theatre Royal, York - Photo Credit: David Williamson It's hard to imagine modern architecture without large, clean, seamless surfaces. The StoSilent Distance system allows you to create these types of sound-absorbent walls and ceilings, in situations where they must be suspended to reduce room height, accommodate services or to achieve a certain aesthetic. As well as being an excellent solution for those wishing to obtain a clean, flat ceiling, the system can also be used to achieve sharp and consistent joints at upstands. You can even...

Seamless acoustics with StoSilent Distance Endless design possibilities The StoSilent Distance system can be installed as a suspended ceiling or as a wall covering with a cavity. The sub-construction is made of metal profiles and the acoustic panel consists of expanded glass granulate. The advantages of this system are manifold - light, sound absorbent, high recycled content, easy to cut and work, and it can be adjusted to any shape of room to form a homogeneous, seamless surface. StoSilent Distance comprises a rigid suspension system with a range of boards, finishes and colours. Benefits...

StoSilent Direct The economical seamless system Although StoSilent Direct completes our range of seamless ceiling and wall solutions, it also offers a particularly economical option for the creation of visible joints. It requires no sub-construction, and can be applied directly to walls and ceilings. It also represents a highly sound absorbent solution that is especially suited where room height is restricted. StoSilent Direct can be used with the full range of StoSilent suface finishes, and unjointed boards can be coated directly with StoColor Climasan for a dual-purpose ceiling - acoustic...

Economically seamless or visible joints StoSilent Direct The StoSilent Direct system consists of composite mineral fibre boards with a pre-applied, textured surface. The boards are bonded directly to the substrate, and their pre-chamfered joints can be left as is, or filled prior to applying one of the StoSilent textured finishes. StoSilent Direct has particularly impressive sound absorbing qualities, and is best suited for continuous ceilings or walls without upstands. Seamless surfaces up to 700 m² can be created without the need for a break in the system, as well as curves down to a...

StoSilent Modular Flexible, Fast, Easy Starting with just hangers to fix, StoSilent Modular is a simple and fast way to add acoustic attenuation to any room, large or small. It is ideal where chilled beams or thermal mass are used to cool or heat, and has a minimal impact on air movement. With a range for any budget or design, StoSilent Modular can be installed at a moment's notice.

A good option for any location StoSilent Modular To preserve original ceiling shapes StoSilent Compact Plaster Solutions StoSilent Modular is available in three ranges with differing acoustic properties, design possibilities and to suit different budgets. All StoSilent Modular ranges benefit from increased acoustic absorption, as the rear face also absorbs sound reflected from the ceiling above. Sometimes suspended or mounted acoustic systems do not suit the interior space - for example, in historical or listed buildings. Our StoSilent Compact plaster systems are as easy to apply as...

Acoustics for challenging conditions In addition to acoustic treatments for everyday interior spaces, when required, StoSilent goes above and beyond by offering acoustic solutions for more demanding scenarios. Plenums and air movement Virtually all acoustic attenuation solutions work by trapping sound energy in tiny cavities, just below the outer suface and dissipating the noise energy. They must therefore be porous by nature. Many suspended ceilings hide air conditioning plant or have air plenums behind them. This can cause the porous acoustic solution to act as a giant air filter and...

Seamless or jointed, fine or rough, coloured or brilliant white: with StoSilent you can give colour and shape to room acoustics. Below you can see which is the right system for your project.
