Rockfon Ltd, the UK ceiling
systems division of Rockwool International, has just
unveiled its new-look website. The site has been
divided into five key sections designed to link in
with the company’s active ceilings concept. The five
sections - Products, Acoustics, Performance, Design
and Installation – are colour coded making it easy
for the browser to quickly find the desired
information with the minimum of clicks. There are
also direct links to access information about the
Rockfon Group, latest news and literature and
samples order / download facility.
Importantly, the new-look site incorporates several
innovative tools designed to aid ceiling selection,
specification and installation. These include:
Specification Generator allows you to produce
an NBS specification with the facility to cut and
paste the relevant text into your NBS K40 template.
Quantity Calculator is a computer program
designed to help ceiling contractors, building
technicians, and distributors to calculate quantity
consumption in different room types. Based on
specific room input and the chosen Rockfon ceiling
solution it will calculate the estimated quantity
consumption of Rockfon ceilings and system
components. For each calculation it provides a
ceiling layout drawing and a consumption list, which
can be printed or saved to file.
Acoustic Calculator has been specially
designed to help acousticians; architects, building
technicians etc. calculate reverberation time in
different room types. Based on specific input
regarding type of application area, room volume and
surfaces in the room it will recommend different
Rockfon solutions that will fulfil legal
requirements or Rockfon recommendations related to
reverberation time.
Application Guide - select a sector and room
type and you will find out the requirements, which
are applicable to the ceiling including relevant
legislation and Rockfon recommendations.
In addition, the site which can be found at
www.rockfon.co.uk contains a valuable distributor
search facility which allows you to locate your
nearest Rockfon ceiling distributor.
Commenting on the new website Franz Lorenschitz,
Marketing Manager for Rockfon UK said, “ At Rockfon
we are committed to delivering the very best in
customer service. As such when we designed the new
website it was vital that it was more than just an
information portal. The new website now provides an
interactive resource utilising state of the art
technology to assist our customers selecting the
ceiling with the right performance profile and
aesthetics for the job, all at the click of a
button”
