Buyer's Guide
Wood and Steel Acoustic Assemblies
AMBICO products take center stage at the Isabel Bader Centre for the Performing Arts. This $63-million project required the architects to rely on AMBICO’s acoustic assemblies to block sound from room to room. AMBICO designed and supplied nearly 100 wood and steel acoustic assemblies ranging from STC 40–59.
