Sto acoustic system helps refurbished town hall sound just right
A 140-year old Category A listed building which has been restored and redeveloped now boasts greatly improved acoustics thanks to the use of the StoSilent Distance ceiling system from Sto. The StoSilent Distance system was installed in the main hall area of the Town Hall building in Paisley, Scotland as part of the venue’s transformation. “The highly ornate design of the original ceilings meant that this was a complicated installation, especially given the number of people using the building and the large volume of ambient noise which they could generate,” explains Sto’s acoustics project manager, James Gosling. “A different solution was originally considered, but Sto’s specialist installer, Allied Interiors of Glasgow, recommended the StoSilent Distance system as a more appropriate and highly successful alternative.” “The original Town Hall ceilings incorporate various beams, recessed areas and ornate detailing, and the StoSilent Distance system had to be designed to integrate with all these features, and yet still create the perfect acoustic environment which the building needed,” adds James.

Ceilings_DPR.indd 1 Unlock Possibilities with HPL for Doors
When it comes to doors, you need something that not only looks great from the off, but that can withstand daily use and stay looking that way. That’s why HPL for Doors from Unilin Panels makes sense. Johnny Maris, product manager, Unilin Panels, says: “We started producing HPL entirely in-house in 2022 to give us complete control over the design and quality of every part of our chipboard and MDF panels. Being in charge of every aspect of production ensures that we can provide projects with off-the-shelf doors in exclusive designs and a range of high-performance cores, including Chipboard Air, a lightweight, non-structural specifi cation that’s made specifi cally for door use.” The HPL for Doors collection is available in three formats that are immediately available from stock. What’s more, there’s a matching standard HPL panel also instantly available, so you can create a beautifully coordinated look across your interior: doors, walls, desks, shelves and furniture can all be given the same high quality look and tough, low-maintenance surface. HPL is durable, highly impact and scratch resistant, resists fading, staining and moisture, and is easy to maintain.
