Christchurch Botanic Gardens Visitor Centre
By Mammoth Insulation
Mammoth Panel Absorber was a key acoustic solution for the Christchurch Botanic Gardens Visitor Centre.
Background
Mammoth® was proud to be part of the acoustic solution for the inspiring Christchurch Botanic Gardens Visitor Centre.
The ethereal beauty of this public building was designed by Patterson Associates with the acoustic engineering of Marshall Day who utilised Mammoth Panel Absorber behind its stunning leafy ceiling pattern to discreetly reduce noise reverberation in its busy public spaces.
Mammoth Panel Absorber is available in white, black or grey and can be supplied either unfaced or with a facing in white or black. For the design of the Botanic Gardens Visitor Centre both facing colours were considered to subtly accent the distinctive leaf motif.
The Gardens Visitor Centre won a John Scott Award for Public Architecture at The New Zealand Architecture awards.

Our Take-back Program
Talking about taking product back and making it our client’s problem to get it back to us is one thing, actively putting bins around the country and making it easier for our clients to recycle their offcuts is another.
We don’t believe it is good enough to say, get it back to our factory and we will recycle the product. We believe putting our hand up and sharing that responsibility is a necessity. That’s why we are proud to announce we have started the process of putting Mammoth recycling bins around the country. The first two locations, beyond our factory in Auckland, are Hamilton and Wellington. We encourage all Mammoth Insulation users to bring their clean offcuts back to these locations so we can avoid landfill and create a circular economy by recycling them.
