Students from Rumeli University at the AcousticMod Experience Center
Students from Rumeli University visited AcousticMod’s 2,000 m² Experience Center to explore acoustic and lighting design in a real workspace, gaining hands-on insights that bridge theory and practice.
Acoustic Panel Coverage Calculator + Room Formulas | AcousticMod
Estimating acoustic panel requirements before a project begins is one of the most practical steps an architect, contractor, or designer can take — and one of the most commonly skipped. This guide provides four calculation formulas for wall coverage, ceiling coverage, panel quantity, and reverberation time (RT60), along with room-type benchmarks covering offices, conference rooms, restaurants, classrooms, and hotel lobbies. An embedded free calculator lets you input room dimensions, ceiling height, room type, and NRC rating to generate an instant coverage estimate with product recommendations. Use this resource as a starting point for specification planning or as a reference during project review.
How to Specify Acoustic Panels: NRC, SAC & Fire Rating Guide
This guide is written for architects, specifiers, interior designers, and acoustic consultants who need a clear, working understanding of NRC, SAC, STC, and fire ratings — and what those numbers actually mean when you're comparing products and writing specifications.
Open Office Acoustics: How to Reduce Noise Without Killing Collaboration
Open office acoustics aren't about eliminating all sound — they're about eliminating the right sound. This guide covers why open plans create acoustic stress, how noise affects focus and employee retention, and which treatment strategy (ceiling, wall, or partition) works best for each workspace type. Includes three comparison tables, a full zoning guide, and product recommendations by space.
Acoustic Retrofit vs. New Construction: Cost & Time Guide | AcousticMod
Structural acoustic construction averages $65–$135 per square foot and can shut a commercial space down for weeks. Acoustic panel retrofit systems land between $18–$45 per square foot — installed in days, with the space operational the same afternoon. This guide breaks down the real cost difference, installation timelines, and ROI for offices, schools, restaurants, healthcare facilities, and hotel projects — with a built-in cost calculator for contractor and developer budgeting.
AcousticMod in the new TV series “Doctor: Another Life”
AcousticMod acoustic wall and ceiling systems are featured in the hospital office spaces of the TV series “Doctor: Another Life”, enhancing both sound quality and visual design on set.
Acoustic Ceiling Baffles: Complete Specification Guide for Interiors
Acoustic ceiling baffles are the most effective acoustic treatment for commercial spaces where wall area is limited and reverberation is out of control. Unlike wall panels, baffles absorb sound on both faces and exposed edges simultaneously — delivering significantly higher performance per square meter of material. This guide covers all 12 AcousticMod profiles across NRC 0.60–0.75 tiers, ceiling coverage calculations based on RT60 targets, suspension systems, and compliance with LEED v4.1 EQ credits. Space-specific recommendations for open-plan offices, conference rooms, restaurants, educational facilities, and industrial environments are included.
Which Is the Best Acoustic Panel?
Choosing the right acoustic panel depends on your space and priorities. Felt panels offer maximum sound absorption and suit offices, studios, and schools. Wood slat panels combine premium aesthetics with acoustic performance, making them ideal for lobbies and restaurants. Key factors to evaluate are NRC rating (aim for 0.80+), room size, ceiling height, and design intent.
