To understand this reverberation effect, imagine a bouncing ball thrown into the corner of a room. This ball will continue to bounce for many seconds on all the walls of the room, until it comes to a complete stop. The same applies to sound (speech, machine noise, ringing phone, etc.). This sound, projected onto the walls of the room, will bounce back at every contact. This is<strong> known as the echo, or reverberation effect<\/strong>. On this basis, there are 5 main elements to be taken into account for effective noise absorption during an <strong>acoustic diagnosis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The nature of the soil<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ceiling height and type<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wall cladding<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Room volume<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Furnishings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5 solutions to absorb noise in a room<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#1. Laying an absorbent floor<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Say goodbye to tiles and parquet, and <strong>opt for a nice carpet!<\/strong> Smooth, hard floor coverings are second-best when it comes to acoustics. <strong>To reduce noise in a room<\/strong>, there&#8217;s nothing like carpet. It considerably reduces the reverberation time of sound, retaining most of the noise before it continues on its way.  <em>Movie theaters, concert halls, hotels&#8230; Have you noticed that these establishments are usually designed with carpeting?<\/em>  Unable to completely resurface your floor?  <strong>Think XXL rugs<\/strong>. Large, well-positioned carpets definitely reduce the reverberation of sound in your rooms.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2. Installing an acoustic ceiling<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laying the right floor is not enough to achieve effective <a href=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/en\/silence-certifie\/\">acoustic correction<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Do you have a high ceiling?<\/em><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You risk getting poor acoustics. Just as in large spaces, <strong>a high ceiling lengthens reverberation time<\/strong>. This is the case, for example, in loft-style layouts or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hoyez.com\/solutions\/cloisons-industrielles\/cloison-industrielle-h5\/\">industrial buildings<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>To absorb noise in this type of room, consider suspended acoustic products!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All it takes is a few <a href=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/solutions\/panneau-acoustique\">acoustic panels or objects suspended<\/a> from the ceiling to literally change the acoustics of your room. <strong>Products or decorative solutions<\/strong> that will make the place unique, according to your desires.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\">See our work in suspended panels<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><a href=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/panneaux-acoustiques\/suspendus\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"945\" height=\"630\" src=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/petales-quieto-945x630-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/petales-quieto-945x630-1.jpg 945w, https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/petales-quieto-945x630-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 945px) 100vw, 945px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Do you have a grid ceiling?  <\/em><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite a low &#8220;tiled&#8221; ceiling, sound reverberation can be significant in an office (in an openspace, for example), and above all a little dull.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this case, we recommend the<strong>addition of acoustic tiles to reduce noise in the room<\/strong>, while adding a touch of decor and pizzazz.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes it&#8217;s enough to replace just a few existing tiles to give your space a new look.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\">See our acoustic tile projects<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><a href=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/panneaux-acoustiques\/suspendus\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"945\" height=\"630\" src=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/18_panac-objets-plafonds-1-945x630-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/18_panac-objets-plafonds-1-945x630-1.jpg 945w, https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/18_panac-objets-plafonds-1-945x630-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 945px) 100vw, 945px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3. Dressing walls to block out sound<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nothing reinforces the echo like a smooth, bare wall. We often forget to decorate offices or other open-plan spaces, leaving a room conducive to reverberation. The sound wave bounces off all the walls without any obstacle.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most effective ways of absorbing noise is to <strong>clad walls with acoustic boards and\/or panels<\/strong>. Wall panels provide effective acoustic treatment. Tested with an absorbent design, the panel retains the sound wave, rejecting only part of it.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to decorating, a wide range of colors and shapes are available to create <strong>a unique atmosphere that reflects your company&#8217;s image<\/strong>. Neutral or colored tones, printed pictures, rectangular or triangular shapes, 3D or two-tone finishes&#8230; it&#8217;s all possible.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <strong>noise-absorbing <\/strong>solution for businesses, hotels and restaurants, government agencies&#8230;<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/19_TQ3D_Elephant-1-1024x683-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/19_TQ3D_Elephant-1-1024x683-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/19_TQ3D_Elephant-1-1024x683-1-960x640.jpg 960w, https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/19_TQ3D_Elephant-1-1024x683-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4. Structuring spaces<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Large spaces are the most prone to acoustic problems. Above a certain volume, sound reverberation can quickly become uncontrollable. To maintain these beautiful volumes without having to create smaller rooms, <a href=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/solutions\/panneau-acoustique\">acoustic partitions and panels<\/a> are your best allies. <strong>The right solution for structuring your space, and also for absorbing noise in a large room<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Flexible and modular, <strong>acoustic partitions structure and correct room acoustics<\/strong>. They can be installed very quickly, joining together in any location to create a pleasant area. Partitions and panels are also decorative elements that enhance your rooms. They are customizable, plain or printed, and offer a wide range of finishes.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, you can <strong>create several zones<\/strong> in a company restaurant for greater privacy, in a cr\u00e8che to design spaces, or in open-plan offices for employee well-being. The ultimate goal is to absorb noise for optimum comfort.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><a href=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/separateurs-acoustiques\/espaces\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/cloisonnette-acoustique-aluscreen-vert-restaurant-ecole-min-1024x576-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4204\" srcset=\"https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/cloisonnette-acoustique-aluscreen-vert-restaurant-ecole-min-1024x576-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/cloisonnette-acoustique-aluscreen-vert-restaurant-ecole-min-1024x576-1-960x540.jpg 960w, https:\/\/preprod-myo.ovh\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/cloisonnette-acoustique-aluscreen-vert-restaurant-ecole-min-1024x576-1-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5. Installing soundproof acoustic cabins<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Isolate yourself in a <strong>soundproof phone booth<\/strong> and enjoy this quiet space away from the hustle and bustle of the open space. The Meeting and Phone Boxes allow you to isolate yourself for the duration of a call, a meeting or simply to get away from the hustle and bustle of the office.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/solutions\/phone-box\/\">Acoustic cabins<\/a> are delivered fully equipped, but can also be customized: electrical connections, lighting, ventilation, number of seats, fabrics&#8230;<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/myo-solutions\/en\/contact-us\/\">Get a quote<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#6. Pay attention to equipment noise levels<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Looking to equip your workspace?  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Printers, scanners, computers, fridges&#8230; It&#8217;s essential to check the noise level of your equipment before you buy. This level now appears on all energy labels without exception. So it&#8217;s easy to compare this level between the different equipment available.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your spaces are already equipped, install anti-vibration pads between the floor and the unit. You can also create a delimited space with partitions to absorb the noise from your equipment.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still not convinced?
