Acoustic Treatment of Boardroom for Ariste Health

Project Overview

Ariste Health is one of the leading medical supplies companies in South Africa. Their head office contacted DECIBEL Africa to assist with the transformation of their main boardroom. The existing acoustic treatment was made from eggshell cartons, which were both ineffective and visually unappealing.

DECIBEL Africa was tasked with designing and installing a modern acoustic solution that would improve the room’s sound quality while creating a professional and attractive interior. The project involved the use of PET felt material for both functional and aesthetic acoustic treatment.

Acoustic Upgrade for a Modern Boardroom

Boardrooms require excellent acoustics to support clear communication during meetings and presentations. Poor solutions not only fail to address noise problems but can also harm the professional appearance of the space. In this case, Ariste Health needed an effective acoustic treatment that improved speech clarity and added to the boardroom’s visual identity.

Challenge

The main challenge was to replace the ineffective and unattractive eggshell cartons with a professional solution that would both reduce echo and enhance the appearance of the boardroom. The acoustic treatment had to be durable, functional, and aligned with the company’s corporate image.

Scope of Work

• Site inspection and acoustic assessment of the boardroom
• Removal of the old acoustic treatment
• Design of a new solution using PET felt material
• Full wall acoustic treatment for improved sound absorption
• Custom-made 3D feature wall with the company logo

Solution

DECIBEL Africa designed a comprehensive solution based on PET felt panels. The full wall acoustic treatment reduced reverberation and improved speech clarity, creating a functional meeting space. In addition, a custom 3D wall with the company logo was created as a central feature, combining strong acoustic performance with an appealing visual identity. This ensured that the boardroom became both practical and representative of the company’s brand.

Result

The acoustic treatment of the Ariste Health boardroom was completed successfully. The new design eliminated the ineffective previous solution and delivered a professional and stylish space. The client expressed full satisfaction with both the acoustic performance and the visual transformation of the boardroom.
