Colours
PRODEMA panels are finished in natural wood. This is why the sample
colours and veining are for guidance only. Besides, the surface composition
of the PRODEMA panels varies according to the application; therefore,
one individual colour may have different hues within the different
families of panels.
Each panel is unique, unrepeatable and may show surface irregularities,
a proof that it is made of natural wood.
The colour chart purports to reflect, by way of guidance, the variety of
shades that may be found in the one and same colour. Such variations
are due to the fact that timber is a natural, living product.

‘Acoustic design’ is an increasingly present concept
in everyday life. Why is everybody concerned
about acoustics? For a simple reason: we all like
to hear well, without interferences of any kind.
Public places such as restaurants, cafeterias, reception
halls, etc., shall be free from the ‘cocktail
effect’ or hubbub produced by a multitude of sound
sources, which, mixed with the strong reverberation
existing in the building, would make it hard
to grasp the direct sound and reduce significantly
the intelligibleness of what a nearby interlocutor
would be saying.
In auditoria, both the orchestra and
the voices should be heard clearly,
with the right intensity and without
any undue reverberation.
When talking about acoustics,
such terms as noise, acoustical
isolation, acoustic absorption,
etc. are frequently mixed up. This
section tries to define and explain
basic parameters essential to work
with acoustic treatment of enclosed
areas. Additionally, PRODEMA will
propose appropriate materials for
different acoustical applications.

About acoustics
Acoustic treatment
There are two parameters essential to acoustic treatment:
Acoustic Absorption (α ) and Reverberation Time
(T).
Acoustic absorption (α ) is a dimensionless physical
quantity that relates the amount of sound energy dissipated
in a barrier material or finish lining of the enclosure
to the incident sound energy; it is measured as a
percentage or at so much per unit.
The sound energy is dissipated in the form of heat by
friction with the incident barrier surface. So, it will be
seen that achieving adequate acoustic absorption is
important if an appropriate and comfortable space is to
be created for the planned activities or intended uses
of a building.
The Reverberation Time (T) is understood as the decay
time required for a sound to become inaudible in a
room. Technically, it is defined as the time (in seconds)
from the moment the source has stopped to the moment
the sound pressure level measured in the enclosure
has decreased by 60 dB.

2.-Theatre, Lecture rooms, etc …
α : 0,15 – 0,4 Tmid. yellow area
3.- Auditoria, etc…
α : 0,05 – 0,15 T. green area
When a sound source stops radiating in a given enclosure,
the auditors present in the room will continue
hearing the sound for the lapse of time it will take the
energy present in the room to be absorbed by the
bounding surfaces.
A room with a high T will be described as live, while one
having a low T is said to be dull.
The T of a room varies according to the frequencies.
Generally, T is greater at low frequencies and it decreases
as the frequency rises. This typical reverberation
spectrum is known as the tonal curve.
Acoustic norms provide that, for a full room and a
given volume, the middle reverberation time Tmid
(mean value of T values @ 500 and 1000Hz) should
be between the selected maximum and minimum values
for the specific intended use of the room: chamber
or symphonic music hall, lecture room, theatre, restaurant,
cafeteria, etc.

Acoustic absorption
A sound-absorbing material is not an acoustical isolation.
Similarly, by placing a mineral fibre or other absorbing
grade product, we do not necessarily install the
acoustical isolation required. Both concepts are commonly
mistaken and should be clearly differentiated.
acoustic absorption ≠ acoustical isolation
Suppose a sound wave front striking a barrier that
separates two media. Part of the incident energy will be
reflected and the rest will be transferred to the second
medium. A portion of this transferred energy will evolve,
through sundry processes, into heat energy at the separation
boundary. This phenomenon will be called acoustic
absorption process. See figure 1.
The incident sound energy Ei will decompose as per
the following energetic balance (law of conservation of
energy):
Ei = Ea + Er + Et
Dividing each member of the previous equation by Ei
gives:
1 = ∂ + r + t
where :
∂ = Ea / Ei acoustical absorptivity.
r = Er / Ei acoustical reflectivity.
t = Et / Ei acoustical transmitivity.
Acoustical isolation R = -10 log t
As already mentioned above, it happens very often that
most people mix up the concepts of acoustic absorption
and acoustical isolation. Let’s illustrate this.
Imagine a material with a high acoustical absorptivity,
such as glass fibre with an 85% absorptivity (∂ = 0.85, in
at so much per unit).
In this event, for r=0.05 –– t=0.10.
Accordingly, the acoustical isolation value will be:
R=10dB. A rather low value.
E i
E r
The incident sound energy Ei will
decompose as per the following energetic
balance (law of conservation
of energy):
Ei =Ea +Er +Et

Sound-absorbing materials
We can classify sound-absorbing materials into four
general groups:
Group 1 – Porous Panels
Group 2 – Porous Elastic Panels
Group 3 – Membrane Panels
Group 4 – Perforated Panels (Prodema Act)
PRODEMA S.A.offers products belonging to GROUP
4, namely perforated panels with circular or linear
holes, also called multiple Helmholtz resonators, in the
cavity of which porous material has been set.
In such a configuration, the incident wave is unable to
make the base panel move; only the vibration of air in
the holes is relevant. The air inside the porous material
and in the cavity acts as a spring secured at one end by
light air masses which vibrate in the holes.
The system has a resonance frequency which is controllable
by changing the thickness of the air gap, the
size and shape of the holes and the depth of the hole
neck.
PRODEMA S.A. offers you 2 types of sound-absorbing
panels, according to the level of acoustic absorption
required: PRODEMA Act wrm y PRODEMA Act fbc.

Sound-insulating panels
For a material to be a good sound-insulant, its acoustical
transmitivity must be very low, almost nil.
The acoustical isolation to be provided by a material must
be greater than 25dB, bearing in mind the formula:
Acoustical isolation R = -10 log t
This implies that transmitivity must be less than 0.01.

Mounting systems
Floating parquet
Parquet shall be placed on a perfectly
even surface with a moisture content
of less than 2.5%.
PRODEMA recommends laying PVC,
polyethylene or other plastic foils so
as to create a vapour barrier. The
neoprene blanket this type of mounting
usually contains will be fitted direct
on the foils.
Wedges should be inserted between
the parquet and any intersecting items
such as walls, pillars, piping, etc., in
order to create an expansion joint of
about 10mm.
For there to be good adhesion between
the parts, the female joint
should be glued with a continuous ribbon
of adhesive.
Finally, the wedges are removed and
the skirting board fitted to conceal the
expansion joint.

Gluing
Project: Mango
This system must always be used
when the length-to-width ratio (slenderness)
of the board is less than four.
To be able to use this system the surface
must be absolutely smooth, level
and without water in its composition.
If the glued system is to be used on
a floor with water in its composition,
for example, a concrete screed, an
interface using MDF waterproof board
must be created.

PRODEMA panels are finished in natural wood. This is why the sample colours and veining are for guidance
only. Besides, the surface composition of the PRODEMA panels varies according to the application; therefore,
one individual colour may have different hues within the different families of panels.
