Why is acoustics in restaurants so important?

Good acoustics in a restaurant are just as important a factor in the overall experience as the menu and interior. Untreated spaces create reverberation, harsh reflections, and high noise levels. This leads to poor speech intelligibility, faster guest fatigue, and a slower turnover rate.

Common problems in catering areas

Reverberation and echo through hard materials (concrete, glass, tiles)
Poor speech intelligibility when fully occupied
Stress among guests and staff; orders are often misplaced
Negative reviews: "Too noisy" is a common complaint

Solution:

Acoustic panels for restaurants Acoustic panels and ceiling islands reduce reverberation time (RT60) and dampen disturbing reflections.
