There are many applications for GRC (GFRC). Due to the high density, flexible surface shaping and exceptional plasticity of this material, we can be sure that it will work perfectly in the role of walls, claddings and acoustic screens. The freedom with which we are able to shape it means that the designer can realize even the most bold and nonconformist projects and plans of his, transforming a concert hall, congress building or auditorium into an architectural masterpiece both in artistry and aesthetics.

Acoustic properties of GRC concrete

GRC (GFRC) is a sound-absorbing material, which is why it is so popular when creating rooms where acoustics play a significant – if not the most important – role, and you do not have to choose acoustic functionality over its architectural counterpart or vice versa. When using GRC concrete we do not have to compromise between acoustics and architecture because we can easily achieve both the desired functionality and the visual effect.
Using GRC, we can build a soundproof concrete wall, which can be used in many different areas. It works as a soundproof cladding, providing excellent sound insulation in homes, flats and workplaces. Used on walls or ceilings, it is useful in multi-family buildings to provide comfort to residents. A wide range of possibilities when it comes to the colors of this type of acoustic linings make it possible to perfectly combine them with other elements of the interior. Thus, they not only become a practical solution to prevent the spread of noise, but also part of a coherent arrangement. Acoustic wall panels will also satisfy employees of offices and co-working spaces, when used in conference rooms or – increasingly popular in corporations – rooms designed specifically to freely conduct phone conversations. Soundproof insulation is especially needed in the music industry: listening rooms or recording studios. There, acoustic wall panels are a standard without which it would not be possible to perform audio projects. But we should keep in mind that the effect we can achieve is warranted by choosing the right supplier of acoustic wall panels. Only cooperation with a reliable manufacturer – such as our company GRC Beton Poland – allows you to take full advantage of glass fiber reinforced concrete qualities and its acoustic properties.

Functionality and aesthetics

Acoustic panels can be spotted in the performance of large external projects primarily as soundproof screens, insulating the intense noise, which comes from high-speed roads or railways nearby. Wherever we use GRC concrete, whether to create an acoustic room or a concrete sound barrier for roads or railways, we can be sure that the aesthetic level will be satisfactory. This is a significant advantage of glass fiber reinforced concrete, which makes it not only practical, but also stylish.
