Daycare

When you have a lot of children together in a kindergarten or preschool, the sound levels can easily escalate. This makes it hard for the children to hear each other and for teachers to teach and give instructions. The result is a loud, tiring and unbearable atmosphere where teachers constantly have to raise their voice to be heard.

Challenge

• Reducing sound levels.
• Stopping sound from bouncing off the walls, creating echoes.
  

Solution

• Use a sound-absorbing ceiling with good absorbing qualities in all speech frequencies.
• Add wall absorbers to at least one wall, but preferably on two adjacent ones.
