What acoustic performance can metal wall panels deliver in busy souks?
In high-traffic commercial environments such as souks in Manama, Doha, or Dubai’s Deira district, acoustic performance is essential to enhance the comfort of occupants and shoppers. Aluminum wall systems, when designed with acoustic backing, provide effective noise control solutions.
Our metal wall panels can be fitted with perforated liners and mineral wool or acoustic foam layers to absorb and dampen sound transmission. This reduces the intrusion of street noise, crowd chatter, and traffic vibrations, creating a quieter indoor atmosphere for retail and hospitality spaces.
The wall’s multilayer construction—combining dense acoustic materials with the reflective surface of aluminum—delivers Sound Transmission Class (STC) ratings that can exceed 40, depending on configuration. This makes them suitable for urban installations where external noise is a concern.
In Doha’s commercial zones or Kuwait’s indoor malls, aluminum acoustic facades are increasingly preferred for balancing aesthetics, durability, and sound control. They offer design flexibility, long service life, and compliance with regional comfort standards.
