Sound absorption in walls – reduces echoes in restaurants
In restaurants with a lively atmosphere and many simultaneous sound sources, the walls play a central role in the acoustic environment. Sound absorption on the walls reduces echoes by dampening reflections at ear level, where conversations and movements would otherwise be amplified. This measure improves speech intelligibility at the tables and contributes to a more even sound distribution throughout the space. The result is a more pleasant dining experience for guests and a less stressful work environment for staff, even during peak hours.
