A zoning office product, is designed to create distinct areas within an open-plan office. These products help organise the workspace into different zones, each tailored for specific activities or needs.
In an open office space, zoning furniture can be incredibly effective in creating distinct areas for different activities while maintaining a cohesive environment. The product to generate the zones needs to have another use, not be just a wall or panel. Tall bookshelves and grid systems can serve as partitions, providing storage and creating visual barriers between workstations and communal areas. Acoustic curtains and sofas can be arranged to define lounge areas or informal meeting spots, promoting collaboration and relaxation. Strategically placed rugs can help delineate different zones, such as separating a break area from workstations. Acoustic panels are essential in an open office, as they not only help in zoning but also improve the acoustic quality, reducing sound transmission and enhancing concentration. By incorporating these zoning furniture products, you can create a more organized, functional, and visually appealing open office space that caters to various needs and activities.
Acoustic issues in the workplace can significantly impact productivity and employee well-being. Excessive reverberation levels can lead to increased stress, reduced concentration, and overall dissatisfaction among employees.
Addressing these acoustic challenges is essential for creating a comfortable and efficient workspace. Acoustic comfort is fundamental for wellbeing within all environments in our daily lives. Sound absorbing panels, fabrics, sofas and ceiling tiles can solve acoustic-related problems correctly in a quick, functional, and safe way. This is also achievable in restaurants, bars, hotels, offices, waiting areas, public places and libraries.
Reverberation, or the persistence of sound in a space after the original sound is produced, can significantly affect people in any surroundings.
Acoustics is a science and GPM Furniture are able to offer a solution for these areas and offer products to provide ‘Acoustic Correction’. With the aid of unique software, that has been developed by the manufacturer, we are able to assess an area and then from a technical perspective, put forward a solution that will work.
