[Offecct](https://resonics.co.uk/manufacturers/offecct/) ## Spaces - [Offices](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/offices/): Reverberation time alone doesn't tell you whether an open-plan floor works. What matters is how far speech carries before it stops being intelligible enough to distract — and that is what we measure. A floor can hit 0.5 s and still fail if the ceiling is untreated and there are no screens between workstations. Formally, BS ISO 22955 assesses the floorplate to BS EN ISO 3382-3 on three parameters: spatial decay rate of speech (D2,S, 7 dB or better), distraction distance (rD, under 5 m), and speech level at 4 m (Lp,A,S,4m, 47 dB or below). - [Village Halls](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/village-halls/) - [Schools](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/schools/) - [AV & Conferencing Room](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/av-conferencing-room/) - [Meeting Room](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/meeting-room/) - [Classroom](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/classroom/) - [Circulation Areas](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/circulation-areas/) - [Sports Halls](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/sports-halls/) - [Churches](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/churches/) - [Auditoriums & Theatres](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/auditoriums-theatre/) - [Restaurants & Bars](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/restaurant/) - [Swimming Pools](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/swimming-pools/) - [Residential](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/residential/) - [Studio](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/studio/) - [Library](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/library/) - [Padel Court Acoustics](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/padel-court-acoustics/) - [Industrial](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/industrial/) - [Museum](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/museum/) - [Retirement Villages & Care Homes](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/retirement-villages/) - [Healthcare](https://resonics.co.uk/spaces/healthcare/) ## FAQs - [How much does acoustic treatment cost?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/how-much-does-acoustic-treatment-cost/): Costs depend on the size and use of each space. Resonics provides free acoustic surveys and tailored proposals that balance performance, design and budget. - [Will installation disrupt residents?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/will-installation-disrupt-residents/): No. We can plan installations around residents' routines, so communal spaces stay usable and disruption is kept to a minimum. - [Which areas benefit most from acoustic treatment?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/which-areas-benefit-most-from-acoustic-treatment/): Dining rooms, lounges, activity rooms, communal halls and reception areas usually see the biggest improvement, as these tend to be the busiest shared spaces. - [What are the most common acoustic issues in care homes and retirement villages?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/what-are-the-most-common-acoustic-issues-in-care-homes-and-retirement-villages/): Echo and noise build-up in dining rooms and lounges Poor speech clarity in activity rooms and communal halls Noise from corridors disturbing residents rooms - [Can acoustic treatment help residents who wear hearing aids?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/can-acoustic-treatment-help-residents-who-wear-hearing-aids/): Yes. Hearing aids amplify all sound, including background noise and echo. Reducing reverberation improves speech, so hearing aid users can follow conversations more easily. - [Why are acoustics important in retirement villages?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/why-are-acoustics-important-in-retirement-villages/): Many residents live with hearing loss or sensory sensitivities, which make noisy, echoing rooms tiring and distressing. Good acoustics help residents communicate, take part in activities and feel calm and comfortable in communal spaces. - [Can acoustic treatment improve speech privacy?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/can-acoustic-treatment-improve-speech-privacy-2/): Yes. Acoustic absorption, combined with sensible room layout and, where appropriate, sound masking, helps ensure conversations in consultation rooms and treatment rooms remain confidential – a requirement set out in NHS HTM 08-01 for spaces like consulting and examination rooms. - [Are acoustic solutions suitable for GP surgeries and dental practices?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/are-acoustic-solutions-suitable-for-gp-surgeries-and-dental-practices/): Yes! In primary care settings, acoustic treatments can help improve speech privacy at reception and in consultation rooms, create calmer waiting areas and provide a quieter working environment that helps staff concentrate and communicate clearly. - [Are there standards or guidance for healthcare acoustics?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/are-there-standards-or-guidance-for-healthcare-acoustics-2/): Yes. Healthcare acoustics in England are set out in NHS HTM 08-01: Acoustics, which covers noise levels, sound insulation, room acoustics and vibration control. It sets specific noise criteria for consulting and treatment rooms and requires sound-absorbent material to cover at least 80% of the ceiling or floor area in occupied clinical spaces. - [Can I buy acoustic panels online?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/can-i-buy-acoustic-panels-online/): We specialise in commercial projects that we specify, supply and install. If you're after panels to order online and fit yourself, for a home office, studio or smaller space, see our guide to buying acoustic panels online. - [Are acoustic panels worth the money?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/are-acoustic-panels-worth-the-money/): For most spaces, yes. Poor acoustics make conversations harder to follow, add to fatigue and stress, and can affect learning in classrooms and the customer experience in restaurants and bars. - [Are acoustic panels fire rated?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/are-acoustic-panels-fire-rated/): Most commercial acoustic panels are tested to BS EN 13501-1 and carry a Euroclass rating, such as A2-s1,d0 or B-s1,d0. The rating you need depends on where the panels are going. Approved Document B sets higher standards for escape routes and circulation spaces than for individual rooms. - [How many acoustic panels do I need?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/how-many-acoustic-panels-do-i-need/): It depends on the size and shape of the room, its surfaces and how it's used. A small meeting room might need as few as 6–8 wall panels, while an open-plan office could need dozens of ceiling baffles or rafts. The aim is to bring reverberation time down to a comfortable level, not to cover every surface. - [Do acoustic panels soundproof a room?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/do-acoustic-panels-soundproof-a-room/): No, and it's one of the most common misunderstandings. Acoustic panels absorb sound within a room, reducing echo and making speech clearer. They don't stop sound travelling through walls, floors and ceilings into neighbouring spaces, because that depends on the building's construction. - [Can you stop noise from my neighbours?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/can-you-stop-noise-from-my-neighbours/): No — and it's worth being clear about this, because it's the most common thing we're asked. Stopping noise passing through a wall, floor or ceiling requires sound insulation: adding mass and decoupling the structure itself. It's building work, and it isn't what we do. Acoustic panels will make your own room sound better, but they won't stop you hearing next door. If that's your problem, you need a sound insulation contractor. - [What’s the difference between acoustic treatment and soundproofing?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/whats-the-difference-between-acoustic-treatment-and-soundproofing/): Acoustic treatment improves the sound inside a room — reducing echo and reverberation and making speech clearer. Soundproofing stops sound travelling between rooms. Most noisy offices, restaurants and halls need treatment, not soundproofing. - [Do you work nationwide?](https://resonics.co.uk/faq/do-you-work-nationwide/): Yes.
