Gymnasium Noise Control
When it comes to optimizing athletic environments like gymnasiums, effective noise control is essential for creating a conducive space for athletes, coaches, and spectators. Unwanted noise can disrupt communication and focus, while also posing potential health risks. At DDS Acoustical Specialties, a reputable industry leader, we offers a range of specialized products and services to effectively address gymnasium noise control challenges. With a commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction, we provides comprehensive noise control solutions that transform gymnasiums into tranquil, high-performance spaces.
Noise Control Challenges in Gymnasiums
Speech Intelligibility
We hear a variety of challenges from customers when it comes to gymnasiums. The most common being speech intelligibility. For example, students using the gym have a hard time hearing the teacher or instructor. It is caused by the various hard, reflective surfaces that cause echo and noise build-up. In many case it is wood floor and concrete walls. This issue can cause a lot of stress and discomfort for kids and adults who are utilizing the space.
Impact or footfall noise
Another common challenge in gymnasiums is impact noise. This is typically an issue for gyms and gymnasiums that are not at ground level in a building. Impact noise travels through the floor and can be a nuisance for people below. Which is why proper flooring and underpayments are essential in these types of spaces.
Products for Gymnasiums
DDS Acoustical Specialties offers a diverse array of noise control products customizable to suit the unique needs of any gymnasium:
- Acoustic Panels: The high-performance acoustic panels are designed to absorb and diffuse sound waves effectively. Available in various sizes, shapes, and customizable designs, these panels can be installed on walls and ceilings to control reverberation and reduce noise buildup.
- Impact-Resistant Wall Systems: These specially engineered wall systems not only absorb sound but also provide impact resistance, safeguarding gymnasium walls from damage caused by sports activities. The combination of noise control and wall protection ensures a safe and durable environment.
- Ceiling Baffles: Ceiling baffles, suspended acoustic panels, efficiently absorb noise from the upper space, reducing sound reflections and fostering a controlled auditory environment.
- Soundproof Curtains: For partitioning gymnasium spaces, soundproof curtains offer flexibility and ease of use. They efficiently control noise propagation and can be drawn back when not required.
- Gym Floor Underlays: To minimize impact noise generated by sports activities, DDS Acoustical Specialties offers gym floor underlays that reduce footfall noise, enhancing the acoustic experience for all occupants.

Amazing products from an amazing company! We have used them now twice at our church and just added one more room for them to do. I had high expectations when they came in initially. They did not disappoint. Everyone immediately noticed the sound quality improvement in the rooms. This product helps us, as a local church, offer a much more comfortable environment for everyone coming into our church. Thank you again everyone at DDS.Ted Towne III2023-09-06DDS did an amazing job sound proofing some difficult areas. They were great to work with and I would highly recommend them! Just to add...we had DDS come back and sound proof other areas because we were so pleased with their work. Highly recommend!Jodi Zepke2023-08-23We are so thankful for the installation that DDS Acoustical Specialities did for a preschool classroom. The panels are making a remarkable difference in the sound in the room! The children and staff are able to concentrate more in the echo-free space. The company was excellent from start to finish! Fair estimate, quick turnaround, prompt, professional and high quality work! DDS was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend you call them to help with sound issues! They can improve your sound to make a difference!Rachelle Kehoe2023-07-27From the very start DDS was a winner in my book. Dave answered the phone, came right out to assess our needs and we had a quote in no time. Their crew was informative, professional and kept their space tight and clean. And the product.... what a difference it has made in our restaurant. Even during the phases we could hear a difference from where the panels were installed and where they were not yet done. I would HIGHLY recommend them!Holly Neylon2023-03-31We recently worked with DDS Acoustical Specialties on an acoustic solution for a workstation area. We went with a combination of pinnable panels, ceiling panels, wall panels, and art panels, which have exceeded our expectations for the space.Sarah Rahkonen2023-03-21My church engaged DDS Acoustical Specialties to reduce the noise level in our parish hall. The hard surfaces on the floor, walls, and ceiling made it difficult to converse when the room was full. We are very pleased with both the appearance of the sound absorbing foam panels which DDSAS installed on the ceiling and also with the reduction in the noise level. Many of our members have commented favorably on the improvement. I would recommend this company without reservation.David Martin2023-01-19Great experience. We had a very severe sound reverberation issue in our town hall meeting room and Tyler and his team solved it quickly and affordably. Town meetings will never be filled with complaints (about the inability to hear) ever again. I highly recommend this company. And if you are ever in the Town of Sharon, Connecticut on a weekday, pop in, go to the second floor and hear for yourselfBrent Colley2022-10-27I had a great experience with DDS Acoustical Specialties from start to finish. I have a small physical therapy practice in Burlington, VT. and needed soundproofiing for my office. Mary was prompt and very knowledgable about how I could be helped on the phone and throughout the process. Steve made the long drive to provide and estimate for the work, and was extremely efficient, professional and pleasant to work with during the installation. They soundproofed the doors and ceiling tiles and it's made a tremendous difference.The entire process took about a month from start to finish. I now feel confident that my space is private and secure for my clients. I would highly recommend their services!Michelle Downing2022-08-01Great company to work with. Reasonable price for an acoustical solution in my 2900 sqf restaurant space. The noise has reduced considerably and people can hear each other even when the restaurant is fully booked. Highly recommended.Antonio De Trizio2022-08-01We had a great experience working with DDS. They checked all the boxes: great service, extremely knowledgeable, great selection at different price points; worked quickly and efficiently. Will use again in the future!Esme Green2022-07-15
