Acoustic Desk Separators for Open-Plan Office Noise Control

Project Overview

Open-plan offices promise collaboration and connection, but without proper planning, they can become overwhelming. The constant chatter of colleagues, the ringing of phones, and the clatter of keyboards often turn into a wall of noise that drains focus and productivity.

Acoustic desk separators provide a simple yet powerful way to restore balance. By reducing reverberation and blocking direct sound paths, they create personal zones of calm in busy workplaces.

DECIBEL has delivered multiple projects utilising acoustic desk separators, demonstrating their essential role in today’s office environments.

Challenge

Modern offices need more than open spaces to thrive. Employees require areas of focus where speech clarity is preserved and distractions are minimised.

Acoustic desk separators solve this by addressing two issues at once: noise control and visual privacy.

With a wide range of colours and finishes, they can be integrated seamlessly into any office design, ensuring that performance and aesthetics go hand in hand.

Scope of Work

• Preliminary on-site measurements and acoustic consultation
• Design advice to ensure the right product choice for each office space
• Manufacture of custom acoustic desk separators tailored to the client's needs
• Delivery and professional installation for maximum efficiency

Solution

DECIBEL acoustic desk separators reduce reverberation and echo in shared workspaces, improving the acoustic comfort of employees.

They act as absorptive barriers between desks, cutting down on noise transfer from conversations and calls.

On average, they lower office reverberation times by several decibels, creating a calmer and more productive sound environment.

Result

The installed acoustic desk separators improved speech clarity and focus, helping employees carry out meetings, calls, and daily tasks with greater ease.

By combining functionality with customisable colours, the separators enhanced both productivity and office aesthetics.
