Configure your custom sized SoundControl Panels
Enter one panel size and the number of identical panels required. Add other sizes or specifications separately.
Minimum size: 300 × 300mm. Recommended maximum: 1500 × 1200mm. Absolute maximum: 2400 × 1200mm, in either orientation.
We allow four wires and eight clamps per panel. Each wire includes an extra 150mm for loops. We add 5% to the total wire length and round up to the next whole metre.
How pricing and cart quantities work
Each panel’s area is rounded up to the next 0.1 m² before multiplying by your panel count. Colour, edge finish and compatible mounting method do not change the panel price.
The panel quantity shown in your cart is 0.1 m² billing units, not the number of panels. Your actual panel count, dimensions and selected options are recorded underneath that item.
Example: three 900 × 600mm panels each measure 0.54 m² and are each billed as 0.6 m². The total is 1.8 m², shown as 18 billing units. At the 31mm wall-mounted rate, this costs £198 including VAT.
To change your panel count or dimensions after adding, remove that configuration and its associated accessories, then calculate it again here. Do not adjust the billing-unit quantity in your cart.
Accessory quantities are different: wire quantity means metres, and clamp quantity means individual clamps.
Custom-Size SoundControl Acoustic Panels
Made-to-measure SoundControl acoustic panels reduce echo and reverberation in offices, meeting rooms, classrooms and shared commercial spaces. Specify the finished dimensions to suit your layout, then choose wall mounting, direct ceiling mounting or ceiling suspension, with 31mm or 56mm thickness and a fabric finish to complement your interior.
Handcrafted in our UK facility, SoundControl panels combine an open-cell acoustic foam core with an open-weave fabric covering and rigid backing. The porous core absorbs reflected sound energy, helping control the build-up of reverberation that makes speech difficult to follow in hard-surfaced rooms. The thicker 56mm option provides improved low-frequency absorption compared with the 31mm option.
Made to order: please allow 2–3 weeks. If you have a project deadline, contact us before ordering to confirm availability.
Use the calculator above to enter your dimensions, select your specifications and see your price. Add each different size or configuration separately.
Applications
Offices and shared workspaces
Use wall or ceiling panels to introduce absorption into rooms with reflective walls, glazing and hard ceilings. Custom dimensions help fit treatment into available spaces between architectural features or around an existing interior layout.
Meeting rooms, boardrooms and video-conferencing spaces
Treat reflected speech to improve clarity during discussions and presentations. Wall mounting is useful where wall space is available; ceiling-mounted or suspended panels provide alternatives where glazing, screens or furniture limit wall treatment.
Classrooms and teaching spaces
SoundControl panels help manage reverberation in rooms where spoken communication is central. Specify panel sizes and finishes around the available wall and ceiling areas, keeping boards, lighting and other fixtures accessible.
Reception areas, restaurants and communal rooms
Add fabric-finished absorption to shared spaces where conversations and reflective finishes contribute to a reverberant environment. Choose the mounting arrangement and colour to suit the room's use and appearance.
Product benefits and specification choices
- Made-to-measure dimensions: specify finished panel widths and heights in 1mm increments, from 300 × 300mm up to an absolute maximum of 2400 × 1200mm. The recommended maximum is 1500 × 1200mm, in either orientation.
- Two absorption specifications: 31mm panels have a listed NRC of 0.75 and Sound Absorption Class C; 56mm panels have a listed NRC of 1.00 and Sound Absorption Class A. The thicker option provides greater absorption at lower speech frequencies.
- Three installation formats: choose wall-mounted panels, panels fixed directly to a ceiling, or ceiling-suspended panels according to the space available and your installation requirements.
- Fabric and edge choices: choose from the calculator's 32 colours and either a round or square edge. Colour and edge finish do not change the panel price.
- Compatible mounting choices: select D-Ring, Mirror Plate or Button Fix for walls; Mirror Plate or Button Fix for direct ceiling mounting; or Eyebolt for suspension. Compatible mounting-method choices do not change the panel price.
- Optional suspension accessories: add wire rope and loop clamps for suspended panels using the drop measurement entered in the calculator. These accessories are charged separately.
Mounting and installation guidance
Wall-mounted panels
Choose D-Ring, Mirror Plate or Button Fix to suit the installation. Set out panel positions and spacing before drilling. Fixings into the building must suit the wall substrate; masonry, timber studs and hollow plasterboard require different fixing arrangements.
Direct ceiling-mounted panels
Select Mirror Plate or Button Fix. These panels attach to a suitable ceiling surface rather than dropping into a suspended ceiling grid. Confirm the supporting structure and use suitable overhead fixings; do not rely on ceiling tiles to carry the panels.
Ceiling-suspended panels
Select Eyebolt mounting. SoundControl panels use four suspension wires, one at each corner, and eight loop clamps per panel. Plan the suspension points and finished panel level before installation, allowing access and clearance around lights, services and other fixtures. Obtain installation advice if the ceiling structure or fixing requirements are uncertain.
Wire and clamp allowance
The optional accessory calculation adds 150mm to each entered drop for the wire loops, multiplies by four corners and the number of panels, then adds 5% and rounds the total wire requirement up to a whole metre. It also allows eight clamps per panel. A 2mm Allen key is required for the listed loop clamps and is not included.
Check finished dimensions, panel quantities, mounting choices and fabric colour before ordering. For room-specific treatment advice, email info@advancedacoustics-uk.com with your room dimensions and intended use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose 31mm or 56mm panels?
The 31mm option is suited to controlling mid- and high-frequency reflections associated with speech and echo. Choose 56mm where greater low-frequency absorption is required: the existing SoundControl data lists absorption at 250Hz as 0.30 for 31mm and 0.61 for 56mm. The amount and position of treatment also affect the result.
Will these stop sound travelling into the next room?
These are sound-absorbing panels for controlling reflections and reverberation within a room. They should not be specified as a substitute for a sound-insulating wall or ceiling system where the main objective is reducing sound transmission between rooms.
Can I mix sizes, colours or mounting arrangements in one order?
Yes. Calculate and add each size or specification separately. For multiple identical panels, enter the required physical panel count in the calculator before adding that configuration. Your dimensions and selected options are recorded with the item.
Can I order a panel larger than 1500 × 1200mm?
Yes. That is the recommended maximum, not the absolute manufacturing limit. The largest available panel is 2400 × 1200mm, in either orientation. The shorter side must not exceed 1200mm and the longer side must not exceed 2400mm.
Can I check the fabric before choosing a colour?
View the colour swatch card (PDF, opens in a new tab). If colour matching is important, contact us about a physical fabric sample before ordering.
Are suspension wire and clamps included in the panel price?
No. They are optional, separately priced accessories for ceiling-suspended panels. Select the accessory option and enter your ceiling drop to include the calculated wire and clamp quantities.
Why is the cart quantity different from the number of panels?
Panels are sold in 0.1m² billing units, so the cart quantity is not the number of physical panels. Your actual panel count is recorded alongside the dimensions and specifications. Follow the calculator’s pricing explanation, and remove and recalculate a configuration rather than editing its billing-unit quantity. If the billing quantity does not match the recorded panel dimensions and panel count, we will cancel the order and contact you so it can be placed again with the correct quantities.
How much acoustic treatment does my room need?
The custom-size calculator prices the panels you specify; it does not determine a room's acoustic treatment requirement. Room volume, existing finishes, use and treatment position all matter. Contact us with your room details for help selecting coverage and placement.
Can you work to a project deadline?
The existing SoundControl range has a made-to-order lead time of 2–3 weeks. Contact us before placing an order if you need delivery for a particular date so that we can confirm what is achievable.
