The Pickle Factory
Posted by Acoustics First in Absorption, Customer Feedback, Fitness, Gymnasium, Product Applications on November 28, 2023
The Pickle Factory is a massive (22,500 SQFT) indoor recreation facility that was recently renovated to exclusively host pickleball games (previously used for soccer and basket/volleyball matches).
Pickleball utilizes hard paddles and hard-plastic balls, which result in loud “whacks” (upwards of 85dB) when the game is being played. With dozens of paddles active at once, the buildup from these hits can be deafening!
Sonora® Lite PVC Encapsulated wall panels were specified as they are extremely cost effective (approx. half the cost of fabric wrapped panels), offer decent sound absorption and can hold up to the occasional hit from a pickle ball. The monstrous volume of the Pickle factory necessitated covering a large portion of the available wall space to ensure a noticeable improvement.
Although sound absorptive treatment cannot work “magic” and reduce direct sound from the ball impacts, it can reduce overall buildup by as much as 6dB, greatly improving overall acoustic comfort.
From the Installer Lee Hartman & Sons “The client didn’t want the walls covered in sheet rock to get treatment even though it was spec’d in Cameron’s layout. Still got very adequate reverb reduction. Thanks, Cameron, for the layout. With some modifications, it worked out well as you can see. Client is very pleased with the result”

For Immediate Release
Acoustic First Ceiling Tiles get a face lift for the perfect fit to any application.
Acoustics First® has expanded their line of acoustical ceiling tiles allowing you to dress up any ceiling grid with a generous number of finish options. The legacy line of Sonora® ceiling tiles includes fabric faced ceiling tiles in either the standard square edge or a tegular edge that reveals below the grid. These tiles are available in a multitude of fabric colors and can be utilized in a wide range of applications to provide an upscale ceiling system that looks as good as it sounds. If you are looking for the absence of color, there are now two white options. The Sonora® UltraWHITE facing provides a basic smooth white finish while the Sonora® Nubby tile provides a texture white appearance. White ceiling tiles are an excellent choice for areas where a seamless look is desired and maintaining a room that is both bright and vibrant. Alternatively, if your application requires the ceiling to disappear, a black scrim version is also available. These black scrim ceiling tiles are a popular choice for public theaters, home theaters, restaurants or any application where a dark ceiling is desired. Additionally, choose from either a PVC faced or encapsulated ceiling tile if your application requires a wipe-able surface for resistance to liquids and dirt. Test labs, animal shelters, restaurants and similar facilities may require their ceiling tiles to be cleaned on a regular basis. In addition the ample amount of absorptive ceiling tiles, Acoustics First® also carries a wide range of diffusive ceiling tiles including the patented Art Diffusor® Model C and Model F.
