The problem
We were asked by the Psychiatric Center of Menin to address the acoustics in their cafeteria. Despite the previous installation of an acoustic ceiling by another company, the result was still insufficient. Our specialist went on site to perform a reverberation measurement. In addition to the high reverberation time and many negative sound reflections, a major problem was measured, especially in the high tones. In a room where a lot of noise is made with cutlery, glasses and crockery as well as a lot of talking, this of course creates a very unpleasant situation.
