About Us

The Rack People™ started out as Acousti Products Ltd. For many years we have had a reputation for being the "Quiet Rack Experts" as a response to our work in creating the first quiet rack, and in subsequent years, supplying many organisations with the best quiet racks for their situation. Our customers have included high profile companies from across the globe, including NATO, Nokia, Transport for London, Boeing and many other commercial, government and educational establishments.

Why Change The Name from Acousti Products to The Rack People?

In the process of finding and improving the best quiet rack solutions for our clients, we quickly found that although for some people the driving force for their enquiry was noise reduction, other clients needed a different set of solutions. In response we thoroughly researched and tested other types of solutions to cover issues such as cooling, anti-vibration, IP (ingress protection), security, on-board intelligence, upgradeability and flexibility. Suddenly, although we still were (and still are) the quiet rack experts, we needed a new name to reflect our larger capacity to solve a more comprehensive range of IT rackmount problems.

Quiet - Cooling - Innovation

Within The Rack People™ you will find that we have categorised our rack solutions into three main divisions;

Quiet Racks soundproofed solutions that can be deployed where you need them, designed for effective air-flow and thermal dissipation
Cooling Racks rackmount cabinets designed with intelligent heat removal capability as a cost-effective alternative to cooling entire server rooms with expensive and wasteful air-conditioning
Innovation Racks creative and clever rack solutions designed for flexibility, upgradeability, contingency, reliability, resilience or bespoke requirements

We are also listed in the Green Business Directory as an accredited Carbon Trust supplier.
