National Maritime Museum - United Kingdom

In this emblematic venue, where the design was overseen by the architecture firm Willmott Dixon Interiors, acoustic control was essential to provide a pleasant visitor experience while respecting the architecture and the historic identity of the museum. Thanks to its almost invisible microperforation, Barrisol Microsorber^® effectively reduces sound reverberation while retaining a perfectly smooth and discreet finish.

The Barrisol Microsorber^® solution improves the acoustic comfort of spaces, achieving a sound absorption coefficient αw of up to 1.0, with no compromise on aesthetics. It thus offers architects a particularly well-suited answer for cultural, museum and heritage projects, where sound control must be integrated into the existing architecture with discretion, precision and rigour.

Beyond acoustic performance, Barrisol^® is also committed to an environmental approach with low-carbon solutions. Barrisol Biosourcée^®, EPD VERIFIED certified, has a carbon footprint of only 1.36 kg CO₂/m², recycling included. All Barrisol^® membranes are also 100% recyclable, helping to reduce the carbon footprint of buildings.

Because a museum does not simply display works of art: it must also offer an environment conducive to contemplation, exchange and transmission.
