With the ongoing trend for minimalist, chic design in cafés, coffee shops and restaurants it is important to consider acoustic treatment in the space. Hard flat surfaces, such as stone, tiled or timber floors, tables and plastered walls will contribute to poor café acoustics as these hard surfaces reflect sound and therefore increase and amplify noise levels within the cafés.
When you are eating in a noisy café or restaurant you speak up in order to be heard by the staff and the people you are with. The issue is that everyone around you is also doing this, and before you know it, the venue is uncomfortably loud and it completely spoils the atmosphere due to poor cafe acoustics. It’s a downward spiral that you may have noticed yourself at some point when out for a bite to eat or coffee with friends or colleagues. Fortunately, we have the perfect solution with our architectural acoustic finishes.
We have the most extensive ranges of seamless, recycled, acoustic decorative finishes for reverberation control in restaurants, offering superb café acoustics without design compromise with our acoustic sprays and acoustic plasters. They absorb sound energy instead of reflecting it, thereby reducing reverberation times and overall noise levels.
Our acoustic product range help reduce programme times with fast installation and no need for decoration, so you can be back open for business in no time with superb café acoustics for all your staff and customers to enjoy.
Calm and inviting spaces are possible with our SonaSpray range.
“The results are simply awesome! It's created a totally different dining environment to what it was before. Speech and music are clear and all background clutter noise has gone. The restaurant feels comfortable and somehow warmer and cosier now.”
Comments from Black Tiles Restaurant owner Tim Yeo, (as featured on BBC Radio Four - architectural acoustics report.)
