Acoustic carpet

Carpet is a floor covering that naturally provides good sound insulation. It absorbs ten times more noise than other types of flooring. The term " phonic carpet " is used when it significantly reduces noise pollution. It's a real plus for the design of your professional space! That's why carpet is so often used in offices and open spaces!

What is soundproof carpet?

Acoustic or phonic carpet is designed to limit noise pollution. It reduces impact noise on the floor, but also absorbs airborne noise. This prevents the transmission of sound from one room to another. Absorption reduces echoes and reverberation. Room sound quality is enhanced.

 

Soundproof carpet features a sound-absorbing underlay. This technology is the best alternative to costly interior insulation. What's more, this floor covering adds a touch of elegance to your premises.

What are the advantages of soundproof carpet?

Acoustic carpet reduces two types of noise pollution:

  • Impact noise: it dampens footsteps on the floor if you work in a multi-storey building, or the sound produced by falling objects or moving chairs.
  • Airborne sounds: conversations, laughter, ringing phones, etc.

 

It provides both sound and heat insulation, making rooms warmer and more comfortable. So, in winter, your business premises will keep their interior temperature constant for longer. All the more reason to save on heating costs!

 

What's more, a velour, wool or loop pile carpet offers a pleasant walking sensation and reduces the risk of falls. This surface is safer to avoid slips. If you receive elderly people or young children, this is a safety solution. Carpets are often found in hotels or even cinemas which welcome large numbers of people of all ages.

What use is carpet in the workplace?

Sound comfort improves productivity

 

In the workplace, carpeting provides your employees with a comfortable working environment. There's no denying that noise is detrimental to work and concentration. By adopting an acoustic carpet, you offer them a more peaceful, hushed workplace. This helps them to be more productive by reducing noise pollution.

 

In offices, meeting rooms or coworking spaces, carpet silences noise. But quality acoustics aren't its only impact on the working environment. A textile covering is a warm product that influences well-being in the workplace. If you have a conference room or cinema, carpet is a must.

 

Soundproofing label for new buildings

 

Under European directives, acoustic requirements have become more stringent. Since January 1, 2013, builders have been required to provide a certificate of compliance with acoustic regulations. The Qualitel label is issued when the impact noise threshold is below 52 decibels. This attests to the acoustic quality of a building.

 

A carpet to match your corporate image

 

You can use them to enhance your brand image. There's a wide choice of brands and products. Today, for example carpet tiles have replaced adhesive carpet rolls. They're easier to remove and recycle, and don't pollute the air. You can opt for bold or more classic patterns. A multiplicity of colors and textures lets you create an ambience to suit your image.
