Acoustics in Offices

Offices and meeting rooms require good speech clarity so all attending can listen or speak without straining. Sound reflecting off walls and ceiling can be disturbing to speech clarity within the room, while adding to the level of sound transmission into adjacent rooms or offices. Sound absorption products can be used on walls and or ceilings to absorb reflections improving the speech clarity within the room; this this will also help reduce the amount of sound transmission that will penetrate the walls and ceilings. The amount of sound transmission reduction will depend on the type of sound absorbing product, coverage and location; sound absorbing products will help, however, may not completely eliminate sound transmission, therefore internal soundproofing of walls and ceilings during the build will provide more privacy and reducing transmission through walls. Ceilings can be treated with sound attenuation solutions like sound blankets or baffles that lie over the wall cavity junction to stop the sound travelling. Pictured are a small selection of our completed projects in Offices and meeting rooms.
