Anyone who has sat in a noisy restaurant or office will attest to how disruptive noise can be. With some saying as many as 70% of patrons will not revisit a restaurant due to noise, an acoustic solution is clearly needed. ECOcero, who exhibited its ECOpanel, an ecological acoustic panel made from recycled plastic bottles, at Cevisama, may have the answer.

The innovative sound-absorbing panel is made of 100% polyester fibres with excellent acoustic performance. It is a highly versatile product that can be manufactured in the shape, dimensions and colours required by each project. The company claims that 75 recycled bottles are the equivalent of 1m² of ECOpanel, making this a sustainable choice.
