Overview
The client booked the Victory Room at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Victoria, to run two events at the same time in the one room. Half the space hosted a safety and environmental exhibition, while the other half held a conference lunch with guest speakers and music.
The Challenge
With both events running at once, noise had to be kept from travelling between them. Without a divide, microphones and music from the lunch would carry into the exhibition, making it hard for exhibitors to talk directly with potential customers at their booths. Noise from the exhibition floor would also spill back into the speaker sessions.
Solution
Control Hire installed its patented Noise Control Wall as an acoustic divide across the room. The panels absorb sound energy, with a Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of 0.85 and a Weighted Sound Reduction Index (Rw) of 27 dB.
The wall reduced noise travelling between the two events, so exhibitors could talk with visitors at their booths while the lunch program ran next door.
Result
- Two events run at the same time in a single room
- Clear conversations at exhibition booths
- Less noise from speakers and music in the exhibition area
What the Client Said
We used Control Hire to build a soundproof wall for a conference in the Victory Room at Marvel Stadium. The wall completely lived up to our hopes and expectations for the event.
Jesse was the main contact there and he was very professional and easy to deal with throughout. We would definitely use them again.
