There is a kind of pollution called “office noise pollution”
When it comes to factors that affect “work efficiency”, the public is only familiar with the following: lack of concentration of workplace personnel, ineffective busyness, lack of workplace ability, etc.
In fact, office environment factors also have a great impact on work efficiency, especially office environment noise. The relaxed conversations between colleagues, the ringing of phones, the continuous sound of keyboard tapping, and the echo of footsteps, these seemingly ordinary background sounds actually constitute office noise that cannot be ignored. They are constantly invading our concentration and become invisible stumbling blocks on the road to improving work efficiency.
Julian Treasure, a TED speaker and author of Sound Business, said that the human brain can only process 1.6 conversations at the same time. If your consciousness wanders to a nearby discussion, there will not be much brain power left to work.

According to the data of Ipsos Research Institute in 2017, in an open office environment, employees lose an average of 86 minutes of time every day due to distraction from work. Among the employees surveyed, 85% do not like the noisy working environment brought by open offices and point out that it is difficult to concentrate in this environment.
This problem has been noticed and solved by some companies. Introducing acoustic overall noise reduction solutions in open working environments to solve potential noise problems for various application scenarios in office environments.
Introducing Soundbox silent cabins for team collaboration and small seminars effectively alleviates the shortage of conference room resources, greatly reduces the disturbance of conference noise to colleagues, and creates a more focused working atmosphere.
Using acoustic tuning panels in offices and conference rooms, absorbing excess sound wave energy through sound absorption treatment, reducing reverberation time, and thus creating a more professional and comfortable communication space.
In addition to sound absorption treatment in conference rooms and offices, high-privacy conference rooms also use soundproof doors to provide a relatively quiet environment for conference rooms. In such an environment, participants can focus more on problem discussions and improve meeting efficiency and privacy.
