Cool companies surf the good vibe!

The second annual Cool Company Awards were held on Thursday 27 September 2007, as a way for Anthill Magazine to publicly acknowledge and celebrate Australian organisations that are doing things differently or defying convention to bring about positive change. 

Eighteen finalists from six categories gathered at the Melbourne headquarters of Primary Sponsor PricewaterhouseCoopers to celebrate their achievements and continue to build on Anthill's growing 'alumni' of Cool Companies.

These 18 very cool Finalists were selected from over 650 nominations. The process required that applicants answer 49 questions, relating to six criteria: Innovation, Entrepreneurship, Youthful attitude (irrespective of age), Creativity, Reinvention and the X-Factor. From these 18 Finalists, 6 category winners were chosen.

Acoustica was presented with the Australian Anthill Magazine Innovation Award for their revolutionary QuietWave acoustic wall treatment.

QuietWave is a revolution in Sound Transmission Loss (STL) for walls, floors and ceilings. A 1mm coating of this visco-elastic material covering only 33% of the surface is equivalent to 20Kg of material such as plasterboard, plywood or MDF.

QuietWave is set to change the way that plasterboard companies manufacture high density plasterboard.

QuietWave®, made from natural organic materials, is environmentally friendly displacing a significant amount of embodied energy.
