Acoustic treatments can make speech more intelligible and reduce distractions to aid workplace productivity. Where privacy is needed, cost-effective solutions can prevent eavesdropping.
Why work with a Columbus acoustic treatments company?
- You will learn how to reduce echoes, reverberations and unwanted sound reflections
- The solutions we provide will improve sound clarity and accuracy
- Our knowledge can help even modest audio setups sound much better
Unless your space is already highly sound-absorptive, acoustic treatments can help everyone using it — both in person or remotely — hear better.
What do local AV companies like Midwest Audio Visual do?
We specialize in improving sound quality by designing, selling and installing materials that control how sound behaves.
A typical Columbus job goes like this:
On-site or remotely, we first assess your acoustic needs. This includes evaluating its size, shape and surfaces; then identifying problem areas such as echo, flutter and boominess.
Next, we design an acoustic treatment plan, with the appropriate placement of solutions like
- Absorbers (that reduce reflections and reverb),
- Diffusers (that scatter sound to avoid harsh reflections)
Then, we source the items called for in the plan, using materials like acoustic foam, fiberglass, mineral wool, wood and fabric-wrapped absorbers.
You can choose colors and shapes that blend into your décor. Custom-printed panels are also available.
Finally, it is time for our professional installation team to install the treatments.
Treatments to improve acoustics in corporate settings
- Acoustic wall panels
These fiber-wrapped fiberglass or foam panels absorb mid- and high-frequency sound. They are used in conference rooms, open offices and private offices to reduce echo and improve speech intelligibility.
- Ceiling clouds and baffles
Clouds are suspended horizontal panels that control sound in rooms with hard ceilings or open plans. Baffles hang vertically. Both are used in large conference rooms, open office spaces and lobbies to tame reverb.
- Desk dividers/acoustic screens
Both absorb sound between workstations, reducing aural distractions and giving a sense of privacy without walls.
- Acoustic felt or PET Panels
Made from recycled plastic or natural felt, these panels absorb sound in reception areas, corridors and collaborative spaces. They are eco-friendly and customizable.
- Sound masking systems
These systems emit low-level background noise to reduce the intelligibility of conversations. They are popular in offices with speech privacy needs like HR, healthcare and finance.
At Midwest Audio Visual, we can help you choose acoustic treatments with a great ROI for your Columbus organization.
