Communication is essential – as long as it doesn’t cause a disturbance
Who isn’t aware of this? Someone’s talking in the office and you can’t concentrate. The louder and clearer each word is, the more annoying it becomes. This often results in people being less productive, feeling uncomfortable, and stress and illness becoming inevitable.
With our acoustic solutions, this won’t happen to you. Be it with ceiling absorbers, soundproofed walls or acoustic panels – we provide optimal noise protection so that your team can switch flexibly between concentrated work and communicative discussion.
Noise as a subjective nuisance
Type of occupation
It’s mostly mental work that is more susceptible to being disturbed than physical work
Frequency
The higher the frequency, the more disturbing the sound. This applies up to about 6,000 Hz.
Time frame
Fluctuating sounds are more disruptive than consistent ones.
Sound pressure level
The louder the sound, the more annoying it is.
Sound insulation in the office
Office acoustics are perceived as pleasant when annoying noises are reduced and you don’t feel like you’re disturbing others:
Voices and work noises are not transmitted from one workplace to another or are at least so quiet
that they don’t cause a disturbance
– Noises coming from outside the office space and noises from technical equipment in the office are not perceived as disruptive at workstations
In the workplace, confidential conversations or telephone calls can be conducted in a muted tone
without issue.
Acoustic office planning
When it comes to acoustic room planning, it is of primary importance to adapt the acoustics to modern ways of working and to create optimal conditions for each workplace according to its use.
