HERCULES
IMPACT-RESISTANT PANELS
Primacoustic Hercules™ panels are absorption panels that are designed
to withstand the abuse of environments such as gymnasiums, offi ces,
classrooms, and other public occupancy spaces. While most acoustic
panels are delicate and susceptible to damage, Hercules will help to
reduce reverberation while looking like new after repeated impact.
Hercules impact-resistant panels are manufactured from the same highdensity (6pcf/96kg/m3) glass wool core as Primacoustic Broadway panels,
but the face of the panel is covered with a rigid fi berglass layer. This facing
allows the panel to effectively absorb most frequencies, but the protection
will prevent damage occurring from accidental contact. Whether someone
bumps into the panel, or a basketball bounces off it in a gymnasium, the
Hercules panel will remain looking fresh and intact. This durable facing
even allows for the use of thumbtacks in the panel, making it ideal for offi ce
spaces or schools.
Hercules panels measure 24”x48”x2” (60x120x5cm) with square edges,
and are available in beige or grey acoustically transparent fabric.
