Sound absorbing carpets

Sound absorbing carpets utilise one of the largest spaces.

As one of the largest continuous surfaces in any office, the floor makes a significant contribution to any room’s Reverberation Time. Clearly, a degree of floor level acoustic absorption is necessary, yet not just any tile or carpet surface will do.

The acoustic efficiency of any carpet is determined by its construction, and our partners at Milliken have perfected the art of creating carpet surfaces with narrow, deep pores that effectively absorb sound, allowing acoustic energy to enter the pile of the carpet before being reduced through the effects of friction.

Milliken Contract’s Comfort Plus is the world’s first high performance renewable modular carpet with recycled cushion backing which absorbs sound to a far greater degree than any hardback carpet or hard flooring alternative.

The ability of Comfort Plus2 to absorb sound helps to reduce interfloor noise and makes raised access floors sound more solid.
