The use of acoustic panels for theatres makes more sense than ever in this type of cultural facility. Theatres are used for performing plays that are conveyed to the audience through speech and music, sometimes even without the reinforcement of loudspeakers, and this requires perfect acoustics.
The town of Maracena, Granada longed for a new theatre and, a few weeks ago, they inaugurated Espacio Escénico Ciudad de Maracena in the historic neighbourhood of San Nicolás, one of the oldest in the town. The new multi-purpose building boasts a built area of over 4,000 m² that includes a large foyer, fenced outdoor space, 602 m² of multi-purpose rooms and a main auditorium with 382 seats (plus four spaces for people with reduced mobility) and a 200-m² stage.
Spigogroup was pleased to be involved in the project with the manufacture and supply of 2,000 m² of Spigoacustic sound-absorbent wood acoustic panels. Specifically, they were panels of the Spigoacustic Liso and Spigoacustic 28-16-64 models, in 2400 x 600 mm acoustic tiles, manufactured with MDF with B-s1,d0 fire performance and finished with 16 mm Atlas wenge melamine. The installation method employs a convenient tongue-and-groove system on a substructure of standard wooden battens anchored to the wall.
The result is a facility with very modern, elegant and welcoming wood acoustic cladding, which assures the best acoustics.
