New 2.5 billionNK Oslo Opera House chooses IAC doors
 The Norwegian government has placed a substantial €1.200K order with IAC GmbH in Germany, for the supply of acoustics doors for their prestigious new Opera House in Oslo to open in 2008.
The Opera House is under construction at present and will be the new home for the Norwegian National Opera and Ballet.
IAC will design, manufacture and deliver 19 large sliding and hinged doors, and roller shutters, all of which will be installed on site by April 2007. The largest of the doors measures 8.4m by 9.2m, clear opening with a noise reduction of R'W45dB.
The Opera House has been designed by Snohetta, while the highly sophisticated acoustics of the interior have been developed by acoustic consultancy, Brekke Strand Akustikk, Arup.
IAC has extensive experience of supplying theatres and other performance spaces and names among our UK theatre clients the Royal National, Royal Court, Sadler’s Wells and Roundhouse theatres, and the new Unicorn Children’s theatre – all in London, and a number of others for leading Universities.
Volker Hörchens is General Manager of IAC GmbH "With proven acoustic performance and easy manoeverability for even the largest doors, by just one person, IAC is the preferred partner of many of the foremost theatre’s designers and operators. We are a leader when it comes to both price and quality." More details on IAC’s theatres experience can be found at http://www.iacl.co.uk/uk/doors/theatre_projects.asp )
