Acoustic Panels for Worship Centres
Balance music and speech. Keep the warmth while making every word understandable.
Great worship spaces carry music beautifully—the natural reverberation adds richness and depth. But too much echo blurs speech, making it hard for congregations to follow along and connect with the message.
We help you find the balance: keeping the musical warmth your space is known for while ensuring every spoken word reaches clearly to the back row. Our panels can be virtually invisible or become part of the architectural story.
Recommended Solutions
High-Ceiling Baffles
Discreet ceiling treatment that controls reverberation without changing the visual character of the space.
Hanging Clouds
Sculptural ceiling features that provide targeted absorption while respecting architectural lines.
Wall Panels
Strategic placement along rear and side walls in colours that blend with existing finishes.
Acoustic Tuning Guidance
Spoken word target: RT60 ≈ 0.8–1.2 seconds
Contemporary music: RT60 ≈ 1.2–1.8 seconds
Typical approach: 25–35% ceiling treatment, tune with strategic wall panels
Example Outcome
800-seat sanctuary: RT60 tuned from 2.4 s → 1.4 s using ceiling clouds and rear wall panels in colours that disappear against existing finishes.
Design Considerations

Heritage Considerations
Removable mounting systems available for heritage buildings where permanent alterations aren't permitted.
Multi-Use Flexibility
Solutions that work for both worship services and community events, concerts, and speaking engagements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will panels change the look and feel of our space?
Not if you don't want them to. We can make treatments virtually disappear in dark colours, or create custom features that enhance your architectural vision. View colour options.
How do you install at height with minimal disruption?
We use professional rigging and can schedule installation around your service times. Most ceiling work can be completed during weekday hours.
What about fire compliance and building codes?
All panels meet [INSERT FIRE RATINGS] and building code requirements. We provide documentation for your local authority approvals.
Can treatments be removed if needed for heritage sites?
Yes. We offer removable mounting systems that don't require permanent alterations to historic structures, while still providing secure, long-term installation.
How do you balance acoustics for both music and speech?
We model your space for different program types and recommend treatment levels that preserve musical warmth while improving speech clarity. Fine-tuning can be adjusted after installation based on real-world performance.
