Saint-Gobain Ecophon teikė pagalbą projektuojant ir įgyvendinant geresnės akustikos reikalavimus naujame įspūdingame Kvynso univeristeto pastate Belfaste. Kompiuterijos mokslų pastatas įvertintas kaip puikus (angl. Very Good rating) pagal BRREAM sertifikavimo sistemą. Pastatas buvo visiškai transformuotas iš 1970-ųjų betoninio blankaus komplekso į pribloškiančias modernias estetiško dizaino patalpas. 

Saint-Gobain Ecophon tiekė lubų sprendimus visoms pastato, dar žinomo kaip "Bernard Crossland pastatas" vardu. Po renovacijos ir plėtros darbų pastato plotas, palyginus su senosiomis patalpomis, padidėjo dvigubai - atsirado daugiau ervės, padidėjo kompiuterių patalpos, projektavimo ir socialinės erdvės.

Saint-Gobain Ecophon teikė sprendimus, individualiai pritaikytus kiekvienoms patalpoms. f each of these areas, including the impressive raft ceiling in the reception area. “We have completed a wide range of projects over the years for Queen’s University, so we were delighted to be involved in another of their ambitious projects,” explained Andrew Acheson, Area Manager for Northern Ireland.

“Once again, it was a case of working closely with the University, the architect and main contractor to find the right solutions.” These included the installation of the Focus E, Focus E with Wing and the Hygiene Performance product ranges installed by accredited ceiling contractor, North West Drylining. Ecophon Focus™ E provides an attractive suspending ceiling.

With a recessed visible grid and a tegular edge design, this has created a ceiling with a shadow effect that accentuates each tile and partially conceals the grid system. Ecophon Focus Wing is an edging system for suspended ceiling rafts, normally installed at the perimeter. The system has been used as an edge feature where the suspended ceiling meets the feature lighting coffer, creating depth to enhance the look of the entrance area.

The project also included Ecophon Hygiene Performance™ - a wall-to-wall, sound-absorbing ceiling system intended for environments where there is a risk for slight contamination, and where cleaning is required on a regular basis.
