Resonics

What Resonics does

Resonics is a UK-based acoustic treatment specialist that supplies, designs, and installs sound absorption solutions for commercial, educational, hospitality, residential, and community spaces. Founded in 2013 and headquartered at Unit A Clarson Court, 130 Gosterwood St, Deptford, London, the company aggregates more than 50 acoustic product brands under one specification channel, including Autex, Ecophon, Impact Acoustic, BAUX, Acoufelt, Hunter Douglas, SilentSpace, Abstracta, 14six8, and De Vorm. Core technologies centre on porous absorption materials such as recycled PET felt, glasswool, timber, fabric-wrapped panels, and stretched-fabric ceiling systems (Tenso), all rated by independently laboratory-tested NRC and Class A-E absorption performance. Service offerings include free on-site acoustic surveys, custom CAD design proposals with reverberation-time predictions, professional installation by in-house teams holding IPAF, CSCS, SSSTS, and SMSTS certifications, electronic sound masking, and bespoke branded acoustic solutions.

The business operates a project-based B2B model with two revenue streams: full supply-and-install projects (50% deposit on order, 50% on completion) and supply-only transactions (100% upfront). Wall panels are priced from £80-£200 each, ceiling rafts £150-£400, and baffles £60-£120, with enterprise project values ranging from several thousand pounds for small fit-outs to several hundred thousand pounds for flagship installations such as Santander's 200,000 sq ft seven-level UK headquarters. Go-to-market is consultative-direct: free acoustic surveys and CAD proposals feed a sales pipeline targeting architects, interior designers, facilities managers, and end customers across offices, schools, village halls, restaurants, hotels, churches, studios, and high-end residential developments. The company is privately held as Resonics Ltd (Company No: 8798205), holds ISO 14001, ISO 9001, Constructionline Platinum, CHAS, and SafeContractor accreditations, and reports no external funding, parent entity, or M&A activity.

Direct peers

• Sound Reduction Systems Ltd: UK-based manufacturer and supplier of acoustic panels, ceilings, and soundproofing products, including its own Silent Floor and wall systems. Directly comparable to Resonics in target market (UK offices, education, residential) and product category (acoustic wall and ceiling panels).
• SRL Group (Sound Reduction Limited): UK acoustic product and installation specialist supplying wall panels, ceiling tiles, and acoustic insulation. Competes head-to-head with Resonics for commercial fit-out and education specifications across the UK.
• Kinetics Noise Control: US-headquartered manufacturer and supplier of acoustic panels, sound-absorbing baffles, and isolation products for commercial, education, and healthcare markets. Comparable product portfolio (wall panels, ceiling baffles) and consultative specification sales motion.
• RPG Acoustical Systems: Global manufacturer of architectural acoustics products including wall panels, ceiling baffles, and diffusers. Direct competitor in the commercial acoustic treatment space with comparable design-led specification approach.
• Wenger Corporation: Provides acoustic and architectural solutions including sound-absorbing panels and ceiling systems for education, performing arts, and corporate facilities. Comparable segment mix to Resonics, particularly the education and studio use cases.
• Troldtekt: Danish manufacturer of wood-wool acoustic panels widely specified across Europe for offices, schools, and residential projects. Competes on the same product category (sustainable acoustic panels) and overlapping green-building certification value proposition.
• Heradesign: European manufacturer of wood-wool and magnesite-bonded acoustic panels for ceilings and walls. Comparable product line to the Autex, BAUX, and Ecophon ranges Resonics distributes, and a competing brand in the same specification market.

Broad incumbents

• Saint-Gobain Ecophon: Subsidiary of Saint-Gobain and one of the largest global manufacturers of glasswool acoustic ceiling and wall systems. Already a Resonics supplier, but also sells direct to specifiers and large accounts, making it both a partner and a broad incumbent in the same product category.
• Knauf: Global building materials group with a substantial acoustic plasterboard, ceiling, and insulation portfolio. Operates at much larger scale than Resonics across adjacent product categories (acoustic wall linings, suspended ceilings) used in the same UK fit-out projects.

Emerging players

• Soundsulate: US-based specialist in acoustic panels, soundproofing wraps, and noise-control products, with growing e-commerce and specification presence. Comparable product mix focused on acoustic panels, though currently operating at smaller scale and primarily direct-to-consumer.
