Acospray DC2 2.0
The same material as DC2 1.0, pressed as it is applied. That gives a structured surface that reads flat from the floor — the closest a sprayed finish gets to plasterboard — in a thinner build that protects ceiling height.
When to specify it
Specify it on a refurbishment where the floor-to-ceiling height cannot be given away.
- Interiors where the ceiling must read flat
- Reception, boardroom and gallery
- Restricted floor-to-ceiling height
- Refurbishment over existing flat soffits
- Swimming halls and semi-outdoor soffits — also hygroscopic

Performance by thickness
Absorption is a function of thickness.
Specify the thickness against the target, not the headline figure. Sound absorption coefficient by octave band, manufacturer-published.
| Applied thickness | 125 Hz | 250 Hz | 500 Hz | 1 kHz | 2 kHz | 4 kHz | NRC | αw | ISO 11654 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 mm | 0.11 | 0.17 | 0.39 | 0.69 | 0.67 | 0.82 | 0.50 | 0.40 | Class D |
| 15 mm | 0.14 | 0.33 | 0.78 | 0.96 | 0.97 | 0.99 | 0.75 | 0.65 | Class C |
