Client

Hai Institute

Location

Patna, India

Application

Acoustic treatment for educational institute

Space Covered

1,500 m²

Products Supplied

SoundaXe® Perforated Wooden Panels (600 x 600 mm)
Sound Insulation Pad (SIP) placed behind panels

Objective

Achieve superior speech clarity and controlled acoustics for a learning environment.

Client Challenge

Hai Institute needed to convert a large 1,500 m² space into an acoustically optimized area suitable for lectures, training sessions, and presentations. The space had:

Reverberation Issues

High reverberation and echo affecting speech clarity.

Design Requirement

Needed a premium yet functional finish aligned with the institute’s modern design.

Our Approach

1

Premium Acoustic Finish: SoundaXe® Perforated Wooden Panels (600 x 600 mm) added as a visible finish to deliver aesthetic elegance and functional acoustic control.

2

Acoustic Backing Layer: Sound Insulation Pad (SIP) installed behind each perforated panel to enhance sound absorption and minimize reverberation.

This dual-layer system provided both high-performance acoustics and a premium architectural finish suited for an educational environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What was the scope at Hai Institute, Patna?

1,500 m2 of educational space converted into an acoustically controlled environment for lectures, training and presentations, with high reverberation and echo the presenting problem.

What products were supplied?

SoundaXe perforated wooden panels at 600 x 600 mm as the visible finish, with Sound Insulation Pad placed behind the panels as the absorptive layer.

Why is an absorptive pad needed behind a perforated wooden panel?

Because the perforated panel is a facing. Sound passes through the perforations and is absorbed by the material and cavity behind them. Without the pad, the panel provides very little absorption regardless of how open the perforation pattern looks.

What NRC does the wooden panel system achieve?

Perforated wooden panels with an acoustic backing reach NRC 0.70, and MMT Acoustix wooden slat panels are tested at NRC 0.75 to ASTM C423. The figure comes from the panel and backing as a system, not from the timber alone.

Why use wooden panels in a lecture hall rather than felt or foam?

Because a perforated wooden system absorbs across the speech range while the panel face scatters some reflection, which keeps a lecture hall intelligible without going acoustically dead, and it meets the premium finish standard an institute expects at eye level.

Who manufactures perforated wooden acoustic panels in India?

MMTPL (Mahabir Multi Tech Private Limited) manufactures the full range at its Palwal plant in Haryana, India, and supplies architects, consultants and turnkey contractors in India and 25+ export markets.
