Acoustics at Heimolinna – Konton’s peat-based acoustic panels

Heimolinna in Loimaa, a site of cultural and historical significance, is a banquet hall where architecture, history, and urban culture converge. The hall’s acoustics have been upgraded with a solution that respects the building’s original character: Konton’s peat-based acoustic panels provide natural sound absorption and a subtle, technical finish to the space.

Suspended Acoustic Panels – Chain-and-Hook Suspension

Suspended acoustic panels have been installed from the high ceiling of the hall, hung using a chain-and-hook system. This solution blends seamlessly with the architecture of the space and creates an airy, light impression. At the same time, it improves sound clarity and reduces reverberation in large spaces where acoustic quality is key to the success of events.

Natural sound absorption from Finnish peat

Konto’s acoustic panels are made from a peat-based natural fiber material that provides a soft, pleasant sound environment, particularly for speech-oriented events. The material’s natural structure makes it a valuable option for cultural venues where sustainability, aesthetics, and technical functionality go hand in hand.

An Aesthetic and Technical Whole

The suspended acoustic solution

• preserves Heimolinna’s original architecture in plain view

• lightens the visual appearance of the space

• improves sound absorption evenly throughout the hall

• enables an unobtrusive installation that does not disrupt the structure

The acoustics at Heimolinna demonstrate how acoustic solutions based on natural materials can be integrated into a historic cultural space in a way that is both technically effective and visually appealing.
