AMC Mecanocaucho® acoustic hangers keep safety even in the event of a fire

The picture above shows an Akustik 2 acoustic hanger installed in a theater that caught fire.

In a fire event, elastic materials like rubber or polyurethanes are usually consumed by the fire, due to the high temperatures reached in such an event.

However, if the acoustic hangers are mechanically fail-safe featured, like AMC-MECANOCAUCHO® Akustik range, the system is able to keep its integrity even if the elastic material disappears completely.

This feature avoids the collapse of the acoustic ceiling or the equipment elastically suspended on acoustic hangers, proving that safety is not at odds with acoustic performance.

To assure this behavior, the metal parts in which Akustik range acoustic hangers are manufactured are made of high-quality carbon steel with zinc-plated coating.
