MACH Acoustics, in collaboration with Capita Architects, was involved in the sustainable refurbishment of Bristol University’s Graduate School.

Various strategies were developed with Arup, including the creation of a landscaped bund using recycled tyres, a simple, sustainable solution.

MACH successfully implemented natural ventilation though careful consideration of building’s placement.

The acoustic design, which cross ventilates classrooms via a single, central chimney, saved money and building space.

Ebbw Vale is the largest regeneration project in Wales. MACH worked with BDP to develop a natural ventilation strategy between classrooms.

A cross ventilation approach was chosen as it reduces the need for large façade vents and limits the noise ingress.

MACH Products was employed by South Gloucestershire Council to provide a range of design options to prevent noise ingress.

MACH provided a vented facade solution using weather louvres connected to a raised, vented floor containing the Honeycomb Attenuator.

The Honeycomb Attenuator was used throughout the design as it was shown to outperform conventional attenuators in size and performance.
