Manildra Group trusts Flexshield for critical acoustic access solutions

Flexshield solution:

Centrifuge building: Sonic Access doors

Flexshield supplied and installed custom Rw46 Sonic Access double doors, designed to integrate into a reduced height opening below the existing gantry crane beams.

A removable bulkhead was installed above the doors, allowing the structure to adapt to site conditions while reducing the overall swing door height. The acoustic doors were delivered pre-hung in a structural portal frame, and powder-coated to our client’s chosen Dulux colour. They also included:

• Heavy-duty steel skin construction
• Mortice lock and lever handles in an emergency escape configuration
• 12mm threshold plate and unique double-seal system for full perimeter sealing
• NATA-tested acoustic performance to Rw46
• Factory-assembled, and installed by Flexshield-trained technicians

Gluten Dryer 8: V100 acoustic airlock enclosure

To meet the noise attenuation needs of the GD8 area, Flexshield designed a V100 Sonic System airlock enclosure measuring approximately 6400mm high x 5500mm wide x 4000mm deep.

The enclosure was constructed using high-density Sonic System acoustic modular panel-V100 to create an absorptive room that maximises noise transmission loss. V100 panels were installed for the roof due to potential point loads and access requirements.

A single Rw46 Sonic Access acoustic door was incorporated for safe, secure entry. It included the same key performance features as the centrifuge building doors, allowing consistent acoustic protection across both project sites.
