Make the absorbent panels you need to improve the sound quality of your working or collaborative shared space.
A group of friends, some materials and tools ;)
There are two possible prices depending on the absorbent panel that you choose to build. Both the Laserpanel and the Supersimply are equally efficient, the difference is their aesthetics.
Later we will explain an easy way to calculate how many panels do you need ;)
Workshops can be for groups of 10, 20, 30, or more people. The simplest way is to calculate multiples of 10 ;)
You can also combine different types of absorbent panels.
*Prices are without VAT. They include the cost of all materiales but not the tools.
Check which panels you can build with each tool ;)
These are calculations to build 30 laserpanel or 30 Supersimply in a workshop of 10 people
If you live in Madrid, send us an email and we'll lend you the tools ;) hola@hertzlovers.com

These are calculations to build 30 laserpanel or 30 Supersimply in a workshop of 10 people
*If you have access to a laser cutting machine you can make your own Kit, you will only need to buy the fabric and the wood to cut with.
add the surface of all walls and the roof.
Calculate the percentage of the total surface to sound treat
Multiply the length times the height of your panel.
The workshop will be divided into 4 parts: introduction + building of the Ultrafusor panel in the morning, and building of the Laserpanel panel + final conclusions in the afternoon.
While waiting for all people to arrive it can be a good moment to organize the work area ;)
Prepare four areas joining small tables if necessary
Prepare areas where 2 people can work and have enough room to store work material and all finished pieces.
Review the tutorial and place the necessary materials on the corresponding tables.
We will work in groups of two. Distribute tasks in each group and rotate people so that everyone can practice all the steps.
You can start by advancing work on the slowest tasks. The idea is to maintain a good flow of work and avoid bottlenecks.
Cut Geopannel: 20 squared pieces for 10 panels in total. 6 people with scissors and cutters can work on the step 6 of the #laserpanel online tutorial.
Distribute materials: 2 people can help distributing the materials.
Follow the steps of our online tutorial.
It’s a good time to start taking measurements and indicate where to install the panels. A good idea is that two persons for every ten participants start doing this task.
Is it very difficult to decide where to install the acoustic panels? Actually is very easy, the most important thing is to try to distribute them as even as possible and to cover a 30% of the surface or more. The sound travels so fast that in lees than a second it has bounced several times from different walls and has encountered one of the panels in the room ;)
Which is the most common place to install acoustic panels? Usually acoustic panels are installed in the ceilings and walls. Generally any free surface which does not obstruct opening a door or window is a good choice. A good practice is to install most of the panels in the ceiling and distribute the remaining panels in free surfaces in the walls.
how to install: You can easily install acoustic panels with a tenterhook. In order to hang the panel from the hook you can use the ‘fantasmitas’ which come with the Laserpanel or you can buy common hangers.
Once finished, share photos of your panels and inspire more people to build their own!

Oh, and if you liked this tutorial, follow us for more!
It is very important for us to know if you had any difficulties and whether you made your own panel or not. In order to evaluate our tutorials we need to know how many individual persons have tried to make their own panels, and how many have succeeded.
