Healthcare
Typical sound absorption goals for spaces of care are to increase wellbeing, provide privacy, and low noise levels for an optimal healing environment.
Kvadrat Acoustics solutions depend on the type of care space. To discover acoustic insights, specification recommendations and cases relevant to your project, explore the guide below.
Treatment Rooms
Specification recommendations:
Treatment rooms are typically benefitted from a Kvadrat Acoustics solution incorporating Soft Cells panels with as much absorption as possible on both ceiling and walls.
Ensure low reverberation and high intelligibility.
Consider additional hygiene standards. For hygiene and safety reasons, acoustic solutions are usually placed on ceilings.
Typical sound absorption goals:
Treatment rooms require as much sound absorption as possible, as more noise-reduced spaces can promote faster recovery.
Doctor’s Surgery
Specification recommendations:
A doctor's surgery is typically benefitted from a Kvadrat Acoustics solution that ensures well insulation to ensure that patient conversations are private.
Ensure low reverberation and high intelligibility.
Consider additional hygiene standards.
Typical sound absorption goals:
A doctor's surgery requires as much sound absorption as possible, to promote privacy.
Care Homes
Specification recommendations:
Care homes are typically benefitted from a Kvadrat Acoustics solution incorporating as much absorption as possible on both ceiling and walls.
Impaired hearing is particularly stressful and confusing when reverberation is high.
Ensure low reverberation and high intelligibility.
Typical sound absorption goals:
Care homes typically require high sound absorption, to suit those with, for example, hypersensitivity or impaired hearing.
