Less Noise, More Design Freedom
The way a space sounds affects how people work, communicate, and feel. In commercial environments, excessive reverberation, distracting noise, and poor speech clarity can reduce focus, hinder collaboration, and impact occupant comfort. Thoughtful acoustic design addresses these challenges at their source, improving speech intelligibility, productivity, and well-being. Through expert guidance and acoustic problem-solving, Armstrong helps architects bring bold ideas to life, with less noise.
Acoustical Solutions to Shape Sound

Continuous Ceilings
Acoustics for Wide Open Spaces – and Private Ones
For continuous ceilings, a combination of sound absorption and sound blocking is best to reduce noise and improve speech privacy. Armstrong TOTAL ACOUSTICS ceilings provide the ideal combination of sound absorption and sound blocking in one ceiling panel. With Total Acoustics ceilings, you’ll have the flexibility to meet acoustical needs as the space evolves.
NRC + CAC = TOTAL ACOUSTICS
High-NRC ceiling tiles are highly sound absorbing for a variety of applications, such as large open office spaces, auditoriums, or any space where a short reverberation time and same room speech intelligibility are essential

Exposed Structure Applications
Acoustical Solutions for Industrial-Look Spaces
Exposed structure spaces with no ceiling can create acoustical problems – noise distractions can make the modern workplace less effective and less productive, inhibit students’ ability to learn, and cause dissatisfaction among restaurant clientele struggling to hear and be heard.
Attach treatments to decks and hide them or bring sound-absorbing design into the space.
Achieve the best of both worlds – optimized experiences in the workplace, educational facilities, and hospitality venues – with the right look and less noise in your open ceiling space.
