Forward Acoustics Announcement

What's New at Forward Acoustics?

New Website

Canada based acoustic product manufacturer Forward Acoustics has launched its new website at www.forwardacoustics.com.

The new site features Forward Acoustics’ products, including acoustical wall panels, new portable gobos, ceiling system panels and bass traps as well as a virtual swatch book of Forward Acoustics’ 48 fabric colours.

Check out the photo gallery of acoustic installations in music and project studios, post-production studios and conference facilities, and a full list of distributors across Canada.

New Clients
Here are just a few of Forward Acoustics' latest clients:
CTV – Masonic temple - Toronto, Ontario
Sheridan Institute of Technology – Media Arts Program School of Animation Arts and Design - Oakville, Ontario
University of Toronto Music School – Toronto, Ontario
South Asian Broadcasting Company – Victoria B.C.
Yorkville Sound – Speaker testing lab - Pickering, Ontario
Long and McQuade Music Education Centre – Markham, Ontario

New Products
We are proud to announce two new Forward Acoustics products, coming soon:

Modular Ceiling Panels - Available in two standard drop-ceiling sizes 24” x 24” and 24” x 48”, with clips that allow panels to be hung just like regular ceiling tiles. Panels can be hung at staggered depths to achieve smoother absorption and diffusion. Available in 48 colours, these panels are perfect for offices, studios and schools with suspended modular ceilings.

Bass Traps - Broadband frequency absorbing like our other panels, Forward Acoustics bass traps have a high density membrane design that extends the low end (40hz-200hz) frequency absorption between two and five decibels.

For more information about Forward Acoustics products, please visit our new website, or contact us at info@forwardacoustics.com

Hey, if I can make a suggestion:

Re-do your website! I find navigating it to be clumsy and counter-intuitive. Really bad design. Oh, and the flash intro page is unneccesary, ugly and annoying. And in your pdf, I think you want "Ultra dense" instead of "Ultro" - Ultro is Spock's evil twin brother.

Other than that, from what I can tell your products look good.

Sorry to be grumbling at your new product announcement, but maybe a re-designed site is a good idea.

Sadly not yet, we are only available in Canada, size and weight are our enemies, we use 6lb board to get better low end absorption and our standard panels are 28" x 56" our panels are quite heavy.

Luckily there are many incentives for promoting trade from Canada to the EU, especially the UK.

I am making a list of prospective reps, stores and distributors in the UK, please email me privately if you have any suggestions.

Thanks,
ollie

Hey Guys welcome to the crazy market of acoustics! Yea your right that size is going to be a shipping devil.
For over seas shipping check out freight forward companies to start out with. You would be amazed how cheap it really can be.
Also if you need to get any lab testing done I can set you up with Riverbank labs. The people at Riverbank are great people to work with.
Good luck and let us know if we can be of any help to you.

Glenn
