offices
Numerous studies have been carried out into employee satisfaction with their working environment in recent years. The findings show that noise is one of the main causes of both reduced powers of concentration and increased levels of stress. However, there are also clear signs of a trend in modern architecture: architects are increasingly having old-fashioned modular ceilings removed in order to enable the flexible layout of office space and to promote the impression of space in buildings. To prevent the structural ceilings thus revealed from reflecting loud noise and creating an extended reverberation time, Acosorb recommends the application of acoustic spray plaster with a view to controlling the overall noise level. For example, Acosorb has already improved the acoustics in the UPC call center in Rotterdam and the Sanoma auditorium in Hoofddorp in this manner.
