Echohush Launch Fixes Noisy Spaces
IT is often forgotten that the acoustic design of a space is as important as its functionality. Users of poorly designed spaces often don’t know why they don’t like or enjoy a space. In the case of restaurants or concert halls, they just don’t go back. Large amounts of money are sometimes spent on audio systems, completely neglecting the room, only to be disappointed with the system, when it is the room acoustics that are at fault. The Echohush range combines acoustics and aesthetics maximising noise energy reduction by absorption, improving acoustics in rooms and enclosed spaces while providing strong visual qualities to suit any decor.
Echohush products reduce noise in high energy spaces such as restaurants, public areas, hallways, showrooms, corridors, home theatres, home audio, sports halls, kindergartens, lecture theatres, recording studios, office receptions, open plan offices, bars, church halls, science school rooms, cinemas, work areas, call centres, music rooms, nightclubs, practice rooms, public spaces or where enhanced privacy is needed. The increasing use of acoustic panelling to control reverberation problems has seen a significant increase in the variety of products available. While many designers are focussed mainly on the ‘look’ or aesthetic value of the product, equal importance must be placed on ensuring the panels will provide the required acoustic results. To
achieve this, the panel’s manufacturer must provide a total acoustic solution, not just the product itself. Pyrotek noise control can provide the perfect blend of aesthetics and acoustics with their expanded range of Echohush products, but more importantly, they offer expert technical advice on room acoustics, including product selection, product placement and reverberation time calculations and projections (online room calculator now available). All of these are critical in getting the best possible acoustic result.

Australia’s Best Value, full Stainless Steel Lineal Drain
THE “Versatile” Outdoor Channel and Grate is designed for outdoor applications, where only the grate is visible between the surrounding pavers, tiles or stone. Manufactured in Australia entirely from 316 marine grade stainless steel, the Versatile is a perfect drainage solution for pool surrounds, court yards and alfresco dining areas. The grate and channel are pedestrian traffic rated. After manufacturing, the channels are put through a passivated chemical process that cleans and treats all welds and the grates are electro-polished to prevent tea-staining.

A complete do-it-yourself modular system that is manufactured in Australia, the kit is supplied with end caps, section joiners and 50mm or 75mm stainless steel dropper outlets which can be located anywhere in the length of the drain, allowing for complete flexibility while being assembled on site. The Versatile Outdoor Channel and Grate is fabricated without flashings, for easy
installation in paved, stone or tiled areas where waterproofing is not critical. The standard features of the Versatile Outdoor Channel and Grate include: • Easy to install • Full 316 marine grade stainless steel construction • Passivated Channels • Electro polished, durable brushed finish • Channels and Grates can be butted together and easily joined on site to create longer lengths • Mitred 90 degree corners are also available • Custom square corner plate droppers • 50mm or 75mm dropper plate outlets Custom lengths and widths over and above these sizes can also be made to suit your application.

Billi Launches Unprecedented Tap options
DESIGNED with you in mind – Billi now offers additional design solutions to architects, designers and consumers, with the launching of an unprecedented tap range, all the while remaining the market leader for energy efficiency and innovative technology. Consisting of three new tap styles and a corresponding font, Billi created this new range after collaborating with architects, designers, consumers and staff and every conversation was fundamentally
the same. It was essential that the new range; offered design options and different finishes; was clean and sophisticated – a minimalist style; was safe; and complied with mobility and access standards. The levered tap is streamlined and elegant – the foundation of the range and is simply operated with position-sensitive levers. This will become our standard tap. The touch tap is an innovative, contemporary tap,
with no levers to interfere with the clean, sophisticated style. It has an operation panel on the top of the tap – just touching an icon will cause the tap to dispense the required amount of water. The remote option is another version of the lever free tap however the operation panel is located away from the tap. This can be installed in your desired position allowing for those with restricted dexterity, and ensures easy operation whilst still enjoying the benefits of Billi’s instant boiling and chilled systems.

QuARTz by ACo – Bathroom Drainage Solutions
QUARTZ by ACo provides a visually compatible range of bathroom drainage products creating a completely coordinated design. A choice of floor wastes is available for use in the shower area (ShowerPoint) or bathroom floor (CentrePoint). These can be used alongside ShowerChannel to complete a threefold integrated design. The advantage of a linear grate and body is that it can be located anywhere within the shower area and only requires simple 2D grading of the floor towards the channel.
ShowerChannel bodies and grates are manufactured from stainless steel and comprise a fully welded, integrated outlet. Channels and grates are electropolished, creating a shiny defect-free surface, minimising cleaning and maintenance for a high class finish. The brushed appearance of the grate is still visible after electropolishing and helps reduce the appearance of finger prints and soap residue. There is a choice of eight award winning grate designs which are easily replaced for a new look.
Optional accessories for the QuARTz by ACo range of products include water activated LED lights, debris strainers and boltless lockable grates. For more information, please visit our website.
