Supporting reliability, safety and productivity with engineered sound solutions
Every data centre depends on a complex mix of chillers, cooling towers, fans, backup generators and plant rooms. All of this equipment generates a steady wash of sound that can spill beyond site boundaries and threaten compliance. For operators, the question is not whether noise will occur but how to control it without sacrificing reliability.
AcousTech, part of the Flexshield Group, applies the Science of Silence to create acoustic infrastructure for modern data centres. Our designs protect people’s hearing, support environmental goals and allow facilities to perform at their best.
Panels and screens for high-noise equipment
Our acoustic panels form strong barriers around plant items such as chillers, pumps and cooling systems. They limit sound transmission to surrounding areas and help safeguard neighbouring properties. Large modules can be lifted into position by crane to keep installation efficient and predictable.
Doors that protect access points
AcousTech specifies Sonic Access acoustic doors for entryways to plant rooms and generator enclosures. These doors are available in standard and fire-rated versions, achieving laboratory ratings of up to Rw 52 dB. Built for vibration, impact and frequent use, they maintain their performance over time while allowing secure access.
Louvres that allow air to move
Sonic Series acoustic louvres combine ventilation with sound control. They fit neatly into air intakes, exhausts and mechanical service areas where airflow is essential. This approach suits data centres with cooling towers or HVAC systems that cannot afford to compromise on acoustic performance.
Flexible solutions for ductwork and piping
For exposed services or retrofit situations, our acoustic curtains and pipe lagging provide adaptable options. They accommodate complex layouts where rigid enclosures are impractical, giving designers more freedom to address noise sources across an entire plant.
Compliance, safety and productivity built in
Every AcousTech product is tested by NATA and engineered for Australian EPA standards. We model each site, provide installation support and tailor solutions to specific project requirements. This protects worker health and safety, maintains productivity and helps avoid costly breaches.
Results you can measure
AcousTech technology, powered by Flexshield, has been installed in pump stations, water treatment facilities and other high-demand industrial sites across Australia. These projects have achieved measurable reductions in noise levels and stronger compliance outcomes. The same approach can be applied to the unique acoustic challenges of a data centre.
AcousTech is part of the Flexshield Group and draws on more than two decades of research and project experience. We dedicate our work to the science of silence and to protecting people’s hearing in the real world.
