Acoustic panels for offices

Echo and background noise in offices add to fatigue and make calls and meetings harder. We treat open-plan floors, meeting rooms, receptions and call centres so people can concentrate and talk without raising their voices.

Open-plan, meeting rooms, receptions

The problem

Glass, hard floors and exposed soffits reflect sound around the room. In open-plan spaces conversations carry; in meeting rooms speech echoes and video calls suffer.

Retrofit with little disruption

Most of our office work is in existing buildings. Panels fix to existing walls and ceilings with minimal disruption.

What usually works

Sound demo

Hear the difference

The same voice in an office, without and with acoustic panels. Press play, then flip the switch while it plays.

Without acoustic panels
With acoustic panels

Simulated: the same voice in an untreated office (about 1.7 seconds of reverberation) and with acoustic baffles (about 0.5 seconds). Results depend on the room.

What you will hear

“Morning, everyone. Quick update before we start: the client's moved the site visit to Thursday at ten. Could someone book the meeting room, and send round the latest drawings? Thanks.” A generated voice, not a recording of a real person.

Questions about offices

Can you treat an office we already occupy?

Yes. Panels can be fitted to existing walls and ceilings with minimal disruption.

Can panels match our brand colours?

Eco-PET panels come in 34 standard colours and are printable. Ask for samples to compare them with your brand colours.

Do you work with fit-out contractors?

Yes. We supply only to fit-out teams, or install as their subcontractor.
