Voortman has carried out a great deal of work on acoustics over the years, and consequently we, more than anyone else, are aware of the importance of equipping modern open-plan offices with sound-absorbent materials to prevent noise hindrance.

We are pleased to share our knowledge of acoustics with you in our new brochure. The architecture of modern office complexes often includes several large open-plan offices with many workplaces. This new form of office offers transparency, space, and flexibility, and this is reflected in their interiors which have large windows, high ceilings, and hard floors. However, this is all detrimental to the acoustics.

Consequently modern offices need to be equipped with sound-absorbent materials that reduce the reverberation time to an acceptable level, and which guarantee the speech understandability and acoustic privacy of the staff. Voortman offers an opportunity to achieve excellent acoustics with Sound and Vision, by installing sound absorption close to the source, integrated in the office furnishings. Sound and Vision is comprised of a wide range of cabinets, desktop screens, partitions and ceiling elements that give the staff the privacy they need, and which provide a simple solution for the noise problem. Our new Sound and Vision brochure contains full details about acoustics.
