INDUSTRIAL ACOUSTICS COMPANY AT CENTRE OF WORSHIP - 28 April 2004

Industrial Acoustics Company (IAC), world leader in architectural solutions to noise problems, was an answer to prayer for the Oshwal Centre of Worship in Northaw, Hertfordshire.

The Oshwal Centre of Worship and Community Hall had received a warning from the local environmental health department about noise nuisance. They contacted IAC for assistance having found details of the IAC steel acoustic doors on the internet. IAC fitted five, high performance door sets in the Centre. IAC supplies noise control solutions across the spectrum of community venues, all geared towards protecting local residents from noise pollution.

Within the Oshwal Centre all five acoustic doors were positioned in emergency escape areas, each with integrated emergency escape panic hardware. These backed onto the community hall and were the only sound barrier to the outside. Having fitted over 100,000 acoustic doors sets world-wide IAC has built a reputation for quality and excellence, where proven technology is applied to solve sound problems efficiently.

Scott Simmons is IAC's Product Manager, Doors: "We're called on more and more for this kind of job. In this case the doors themselves were standard, and it was just the threshold plates that required modification. This building was quite modern -1980s, or thereabouts, but we can fit acoustic doors into virtually any age of building. We also supply acoustic moveable partition walls where venues are looking to subdivide large spaces and maximise revenue."

Manager of the Oshwal Centre, Mr Tushar Shah said: "Although our Centre is in the countryside, four houses have since been built right close by. We hire out the hall for weddings and parties so fitting the acoustic doors has made a tremendous difference. IAC responded quickly even though they were very busy at the time and both the product and the overall quality of the job were excellent. A very nice job from start to finish!"
