Decrabaffles are the solution for areas with no conventional ceiling.

As open ceiling designs become more prevalent in commercial and institutional architecture, so does the challenge of managing sound in these large, exposed spaces. Whether it's an office, auditorium, school, or retail area, the absence of traditional ceiling tiles can lead to unwanted echo and reverberation. This is where Decrasound Baffles stands out—offering a high-performing, visually appealing, and sustainable acoustic solution tailored for open ceiling environments.

This article explores why Decrasound Baffles is quickly becoming the preferred choice for architects, designers, and acoustic consultants across Australia and beyond.

Open ceilings create a dramatic architectural look but also increase the volume of hard, reflective surfaces. The result? Poor sound quality and noise build-up that affects comfort and communication. Decrasound Baffles are designed to provide excellent sound absorption for open spaces, particularly where ceiling space is visually exposed.

Thanks to their vertical orientation, Decrasound Baffles absorb sound on both faces, making them ideal for controlling reverberation in large rooms. Whether suspended individually or grouped in arrays, they help create balanced acoustic environments without sacrificing visual openness.

Decrasound Baffles are manufactured from high-density polyester fibre, delivering consistent acoustic performance across a broad range of frequencies. Independent acoustic testing confirms high NRC ratings, giving designers peace of mind that the product will perform as expected in real-world conditions.

Acoustic Performance Where it matters

Aesthetic Flexibility for Creative Design

Acoustic treatments no longer need to be hidden, with Decrasound; functionality and design work together. Available in various colours and finishes, Decrasound Baffles allow architects to express their vision while addressing acoustic needs.

Choose from subtle, neutral tones for corporate settings or bold colours to suit educational or creative environments. The baffles can be manufactured in different lengths, thicknesses, and shapes, allowing for unique design patterns and visual rhythm in the ceiling space.

Because each project is different, customisation is standard practice with Decrasound. From aligning with branding colours to incorporating baffles into complex ceiling geometries, the Decrasound team works closely with designers to achieve their creative and technical goals.

Time is money, especially on construction projects. That's why Decrasound Baffles are designed for quick and straightforward installation. Lightweight and durable, each baffle is easy to handle on-site. Standard hanging systems allow the baffles to be suspended directly from concrete slabs or integrated into T-bar grid systems.

The process is just as smooth for architects and specifiers. Decrasound provides detailed product documentation, including acoustic test data, CAD files, and specification sheets.
