Why do acoustics matter?
Noisy spaces are uncomfortable and less productive. They make communication difficult, cause fatigue, and increase stress levels. They’re also bad for listening to music and movies, reducing the clarity of amplified music and speech.
What causes bad acoustics?
Hard surfaces like drywall, hardwood floors, glass, and concrete allow sounds to bounce off them. This creates echoes and reverberations that can be unpleasant, loud, and disruptive.
How can Acoustics be improved?
Covering hard surfaces that reflect sound waves with soft, sound absorbing materials that prevent them from bouncing back will reduce echoes and reverberations. Good acoustics promote better communication, productivity, and overall mental well-being.
Why should I use Simply Soundless panels?
While our Simply Soundless Premium Hexagon Panels and our Commercial-Grade XL panels are 16mm thick, most competing tiles are 8mm or thinner and as the old saying goes “you get what you pay for”. When it comes to sound absorption, there is no substitute for depth and we offer the best product using only high quality materials. We also have many customizable depths with our panels in addition to our professional-grade panels that can block out the lower bass frequencies as well.
Simply Soundless 16mm panels have an independently verified noise reduction coefficient (.4). While the competition makes bold claims, their sound ratings are if the panels are suspended in air and not rated for being flush up against the wall. Unlike the competition, our sound panels are backed by scientific testing. (Download Testing Data)
The type of material and the thickness of material make all of the difference with sound absorption and we use the best of both to give the best customer experience.
We also feature a semi-permanent peel and stick backing for easy and lasting installation. For temporary placement such as apartments or dorms, they can also be easily removed and replaced with 3M command strips for damage free removable hanging.
“High-quality sound and good acoustics is the name of our game.”
