All the latest Akustik & Raum news

Akustik & Raum AG presents FeinMicro Secure, a fire protection innovation developed in-house. This composite fire protection solution sets new standards and opens up new possibilities for wood as a building material – without compromising on safety.  Wood is a popular building material. It radiates warmth and is a sustainable material with very versatile properties. Until now, stringent fire protection regulations have made it difficult to implement building projects where wood was the preferred material for aesthetic and ecological reasons. For these projects, the FeinMicro Secure innovation developed by Akustik & Raum will offer exciting new possibilities in the future – without compromising on safety.  Wood is now as versatile as your building projects As a composite fire protection solution, FeinMicro Secure allows new design latitude. Due to the fulfilment of the strictest EU standards (EN 13501-1, A2 – s1, d0), wood can be used safely as a building material as never before. For planners, architects, clients and consumers, this means that wood is now as versatile as their building projects. This allows sensitive areas of buildings, such as escape routes, to be integrated seamlessly into the architecture.  Experience room acoustics in a new way – with safety In addition to its excellent fire protection properties, FeinMicro Secure offers unique sound absorption thanks to its eponymous micro-perforations – with 467,000 holes per square metre. This makes the latest product within the MAKUSTIK system ideal for improving room acoustics in small and large rooms, while meeting a wide range of requirements in terms of material and aesthetics. Contact us to find out more about innovative FeinMicro Secure fire protection and to experience room acoustics in a new way – with safety.

You’ve likely experienced it before: Saturday evening, in a good mood, you are out with friends and everything is set up for a wonderful evening. However, for some reason, you simply don’t feel comfortable. Is this down to your exhausting work week? Are you coming down with a cold? Or is the music too loud? This may, but needn’t, be possible. Poor room acoustics are often to blame for discomfort.  Sound absorption and well-being Not all noise is the same – for many, concerts in sold-out halls can be unforgettable highlights, even if the music is far louder than in a bar, for example. The difference is that in a small, cosy bar, the room acoustics must meet very different requirements than those in a massive concert hall. This is because the noise generates sound waves – and there are many of these in a busy restaurant – which cause considerable reverberation without the appropriate sound absorption. Not only is this annoying and irritating, it also causes us to raise our voices, leading to even louder background noise. It’s a vicious cycle that often leads to headaches, tiredness and discomfort.  Our individual solutions Our innovative MAKUSTIK system offers a wide range of solutions for the room acoustics of many types of spaces which meet the highest standards with regard to aesthetics and fire protection. Thanks to the ultra-fine perforation as well as our in-house planning and production, we can meet the individual needs of each customer and offer tailored absorption values for the respective requirements – whether it’s an airport hall, a music school, your favourite restaurant or private facilities.

With the unique MAKUSTIK system, we offer innovative solutions for even the most demanding requirements for room acoustics. With our products FeinMikro |FM, Perfo | PE and Linea | LI, we can flexibly meet a wealth of acoustics-related needs. Our acoustics technologies will vastly improve the reverberation time in your premises. What was that about reverberation time?  How reverberation time arises Sounds move in sound waves – whether it’s the clang of dishes, loud music, construction noises or a whisper. As soon as the sound waves reach our ears, they cause our eardrums to vibrate. This then leads to impulses that are processed as sound in our brain. Our ear absorbs and processes the sound waves, so these absorbed sound waves don’t cause reverberation. It’s different for the sound waves that don’t find their way into the ear, however: if the room is not equipped with an acoustic solution, we can hear a restless sort of sound that subsides only slowly.  The perfect reverberation time for your room acoustics The period of time between the silencing of a sound source, i.e. the origin of the sound waves, to the reduction of the reverberation to a defined fraction of the initial value is known as the reverberation time. In a nutshell, a reverberation time of four seconds means that the sound can still be perceived for four seconds. Depending on the room and requirements, these four seconds may feel annoying. It should be noted that the requirements for the room acoustics, i.e. relating to the reverberation time, may be very different depending on the purpose of the room. An airport hall has different requirements to a music school or a library, which is exactly where our MAKUSTIK panels come into play. Thanks to our in-house planning and production of the panels, we offer tailored absorption values for the most demanding requirements.  Experience room acoustics like never before We know exactly which absorption values meet the different requirements for room acoustics. Our innovative MAKUSTIK system offers solutions for all room sizes and takes special material and aesthetic requirements into account.
