Malaysia’s Parliament Building (Parlimen) is one of the country’s most prestigious government landmarks. A space where clear communication is not just preferred but also essential.
The Challenges
Large ceremonial and legislative halls are among the most acoustically demanding spaces to treat. High ceilings, hard reflective surfaces, and the absence of soft furnishings combine to create long reverberation times where sound lingers and overlaps, making speech difficult to follow.
For a building of Parlimen’s significance the solution needed to be effective and built to last.
The Solutions
Pertac Resources designed and installed an acoustic ceiling treatment using Pertac® Acoustic Ceiling Panels , a proven solution with a strong track record in multipurpose halls, lecture theatres, and government buildings across Malaysia.
The installation successfully reduced reverberation within the discussion area, resulting in noticeably clearer speech intelligibility and ensuring that every word spoken during could be heard with clarity.
The Pertac® ceiling system was chosen for its ability to perform consistently in high humidity environments without sagging or degrading over time, a critical requirement for a building of this age and importance.
