For the acoustics in sales rooms, the general norms and guidelines that ensure a pleasant sound environment apply. These are also explained in the Office sector:

The DIN 18041 („Audibility in rooms“) provides recommendations on reverberation time and sound absorption to improve speech intelligibility.

Additionally, the VDI 2569 sets standards for noise exposure and acoustic quality in multi-occupancy rooms. This is also relevant for large stores and shopping centres.

Depending on the building type and use, the Occupational Safety and Health Regulation (AStV) may also specify requirements for noise exposure and acoustic measures.

Targeted planning and the use of sound-absorbing materials help meet these requirements while simultaneously optimizing the shopping experience for customers and the working conditions for employees.

Yes, optimized acoustics can significantly contribute to making customers feel more comfortable and stay longer in the store. A pleasant sound environment reduces disturbing echoes, minimises background noise, and creates a relaxed shopping atmosphere.

Studies show that too much noise or an unpleasant soundscape causes stress and prompts customers to leave the shop sooner.

Targeted acoustic solutions not only increase dwell time, but can also positively influence customer satisfaction and purchase willingness.

For a quick and efficient retrofit, drop ceiling panels and acoustic luminaire that can be installed without major construction work are suitable. These elements immediately reduce reverberation and improve sound quality in the room.

Especially practical are acoustic luminaire, which combine sound absorption with optimal lighting and can be seamlessly integrated into shop design. This way, the acoustics are quickly and easily optimized without disrupting ongoing operations.

Acoustics and lighting have a significant influence on the shopping experience, atmosphere, and customer perception. A targeted combination of both factors creates a pleasant environment that encourages customers to stay longer and enhances the brand presentation.

Through joint planning, harmonious, functional sales spaces can be created that impress both acoustically and visually.

The investment in improved business room acoustics is determined by room volume, model specification and installation complexity.

Many acoustic solutions are easy and quick to install without interrupting the store operation:

• Ceiling panels for track systems: Quick integration without major modifications.
• acoustic luminaire: Combined light and acoustic solution, reduces installation time.
