Ecophon’s acoustic products and systems reduce the risk of hearing damage among employees, improves safety and facilitates communication within the pool area. The Ecophon Hygiene family has systems that withstand humid environments.

In certain indoor swimming pools, the staff would probably benefit from hearing protection devices to prevent hearing damage and tinnitus. Sound absorbers in the highest sound absorption class lower the sound level and limit sound propagation. This makes it easier to hear cries for help and locate the sound.

A wall to wall acoustic ceiling, perhaps supplemented with Ecophon Wall Panels, reduces risk of hearing damage, creates a harmonious working environment and facilitates communication, thereby also improving safety.

Sound absorbers can also help create lower noise levels and a more peaceful environment in communal shower areas, which are used by many people simultaneously.

Many indoor swimming pools and communal shower areas have corrosive environments, and choosing the right solution is crucial to maximise the material’s lifespan. In certain indoor swimming pools, the construction materials are required to comply with corrosion class C4. The Ecophon Hygiene system family includes acoustic ceilings specially designed for indoor swimming pools with high air humidity, or where surfaces are frequently exposed to water splashes.
