Create sound environments with BIM objects from Saint-Gobain Ecophon

Saint-Gobain Ecophon has released one of the most complete product ranges on BIMobject® Cloud. Ecophon offers high-quality acoustic solutions and meets the increasing demands of a good sound environment where people work and communicate.

BIM features that facilitate the design process
Ecophon has released an extensive BIM library for both Revit and ArchiCAD which means that around 50 ceiling systems are now available on ecophon.com, https://bimobject.com and also easily available through the BIMobject Apps for Revit and ArchiCAD.

The objects are fully customisable according to the Ecophon´s ceiling systems and include size and corner options. This will help users to efficiently plan and implement ceiling solutions in different projects. Ecophon is a provider of complete ceiling solutions which enable an easy workflow since all components in the placed objects are available.

The BIM users will have access to all the necessary information within the objects, such as sound absorption classes, Co2, fire ratings as well as links to documentation. In the ArchiCAD objects, there is even a link to the correct M sketches within every ceiling solution. Also, placement of hangers is a feature within the ArchiCAD objects, which is perfect for clash detection which will help the BIM users to place pipes and electrical connections above the ceiling.

The BIM software can in the end of the process generate a bill of material, which makes it easier to optimise, to reduce waste and to get the best solution for the project.

A positive effect on people and the environment
Saint-Gobain Ecophon develops, manufactures and markets acoustic products and systems that contribute to a good working environment by enhancing peoples’ wellbeing and performance. Being a part of the global Saint-Gobain Group, Ecophon has business units in 14 countries and a head office located outside Helsingborg, Sweden.

Ecophon has full transparency of their products’ environmental impact and leads the industry in many areas both for the outdoor and the indoor environment. The products are made of more than 70% recycled glass and have a plant-based binder, which makes the emissions of formaldehyde and VOCs extremely low.
