Akustak®

Akustak®, by Mute Group®, is a British made, acoustic modular wall system; granted a UK patent in 2020. Specified on numerous high-profile sound production and podcast studio builds; clients include Steven Bartlett and the Royal Central School of Speech & Drama.

Designed for materials optimisation and off-site construction, Akustak® acoustic modular wall system radically reduces waste, during manufacture and installation, whilst its unique demountable form facilitates recovery and reuse.

In recognition of its sustainability credentials, Akustak® acoustic modular wall system has been selected for membership by the Alliance for Sustainable Building Products (ASBP) and the UK Green Building Council (UKGBC). It has also been chosen for growth and scale support by the UK Government's Innovate UK EDGE.

Prefabricated and portable, Akustak® acoustic modular wall system accelerates construction timescales, with configurations installed from 15 sq/m, per hour, per fitter.

UKAS-accredited laboratory tested for resistance to sound (in accordance with BS EN ISO 10140-2: 2010 & 717-1: 2013) and resistance to fire (in accordance with BS EN 1364-1: 2015), Akustak® acoustic modular wall system can achieve Building Regulations Part – E & B compliance.

Akustak® Acoustic Modular Wall System CONFIGURATIONS:

Aku125: Independent twin-faced, acoustic modular wall system; typically installed to form new spaces and separations, where high levels of sound insulation are required, for example, interview rooms, meeting rooms and private offices.  

• Laboratory tested to *Rw 49 dB airborne sound insulation
• Laboratory tested to *79 minutes fire resistance

Aku133: Independent single-faced, acoustic modular wall system; typically installed in front of existing walls, where a significant increase in sound insulation is required, for example, party walls between dwelling-houses and flats.

• Laboratory tested to *Rw 43 dB airborne sound insulation

AkuStudio: Twin independent frame, acoustic modular wall system; typically installed to form new spaces and separations, where very high levels of sound insulation are required, for example, recording studios and test chambers.  

• Laboratory tested to *Rw 62 dB airborne sound insulation

*Laboratory test data relates to Akustak® SoundBloc (see below).
