Sound & space: the challenges and indicators of modern architecture Whether open space offices or modern conference rooms, room acoustics is one of the factors defining the quality of architecture. Acoustics is decisive for work efficiency and communication, as well as for comfort in offices, classes or workshops. Modern architecture and living concepts using smooth, hard materials and open structures need sophisticated planning of acoustics, since glass, steel and concrete reflect the sound and wide rooms provide less possibility for sound absorption. The consequence is a long...

How does the sound differ? How does the sound differ? Can room acoustics be measured? Conversation 60 dB Meetings 70 dB Printer 50 dB Telephone 80 dB Disturbing noise sources diminish our power of concentration. Noise stress in the office impairs our productivity and can be noxious to our health. In a research of the VDI (Association of German Engineers), labour productivity losses caused by noise are estimated to 20-30 per cent. To systematically reduce noise, as well as to meet requirements on footfall sound insulation against sound transmission acc. to DIN 4109, we need to distinguish...

BlackThermo®fELT ACOUSTIC plus OBJECT CARPET flooring: unbeatable noise absorber BlackThermo®Felt Acoustic Plus for selected OBJECT CARPET qualities - as broadloom, rugs (RUGX) or SL tiles. Do not hesitate to contact us. Footstep sound in rooms depends on the type of flooring. Flooring with high surface hardness and stiffness transfers footstep sounds especially strongly, whereas softly padded floors like carpets almost completely exclude such noises from the outset. Even very thin carpets can improve footstep sound absorption by about 20 dB, and carpets with high pile by about 30 dB. In...

BlackThermo®fELT ACOUSTIC plus Work and live: more quietly, comfortably and economically with OBJECT CARPET MORE COMFORT FOR LESS MONEY: BlackThermo®Felt Acoustic Plus creates a pleasant and well-balanced atmosphere in the room. A softer tread means more walking comfort. Improved insulation properties retain pleasant warmth for your feet and save on heating energy costs. The higher and denser the pile, the better the room and footstep sound absorption and the lower the noise level both in the room and in adjacent rooms. In this way, OBJECT CARPET flooring positively influences the working...
