Create the optimal acoustics for any room by hanging acoustic wall panels

  • Sep 19, 2018

Nowadays, there seems to be more and more attention for the acoustics in a room. And that's a good thing too, because more and more studies show that bad acoustics can be a bad thing for our health! Our lives no longer consists of daily routines. With today's technology we have made leaps in our development, but at the same time we are also expected to be flexible and quickly adaptable. To do this, rest and concentration are very important but this might be the biggest problem yet! Fun fact: after a disruption of a complicated task, a person needs 8 minutes to reach that same level of concentration as before the disruption! Telephones go off continuously, workplaces become more and more massive .. all in all, enough noise and distractions that can disturb the concentration if you ask me. And bad for your health it is indeed. An annoying persistent noise can lead to an increase in adrenaline and cortisol production. Now this may not tell you much, but all of this can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression and cardiovascular disease. Not so great! The solution? Acoustic wall panels!

Hanging acoustic wall panels

Acoustic wall panels can greatly improve the acoustics in a room as they are sound absorbers. When we talk about acoustics then this certainly does not only apply to acoustics in, for example, a studio. Consider, for example, the acoustics in the office, at school, in your home (acoustic panels can often be printed and can therefore also be very stylish!), In a church or in a restaurant. The worse the acoustics in a room, the more difficult it is for a person to place the sound. This all happens subconsciously, but at the same time does ensure a stressful or tiring situation. Even if you do not think you have any hindrance from sound, this is often the case subconsciously. Good acoustics can therefore provide a lot for you. Peace, comfort, better speech intelligibility, better concentration, less stress and less fatigue.

Normally, acoustic wall panels are attached to the wall, but did you know that these can also be hung on a STAS picture hanging system? An acoustic wall panel can in fact be hung on all STAS picture rails, with our STAS cords and with fitting STAS hooks. A comparison of all picture hanging systems can be found here. If there is no hole in the panel then you can easily drill a hole so that the hook can be properly attached. The usefulness of an acoustic wall panel hung on a hanging system is that it is ideal for sustainable building management or when you simply do not want to drill holes in your wall! In addition, when the space in question gets a different purpose, something else can easily be hung on the hanging system without seeing ugly holes in the wall.
