Solutions for your kitchen

Look for an open wall or ceiling area away from heat, moisture and cooking splashes.

Understand the echo

Why do kitchens often sound harsh?

Cabinets, worktops, tiles and glass are practical, but they reflect a lot of sound. In an open-plan kitchen, that noise also carries into the living area.

  • Less distracting echo and fewer harsh reflections
  • Clearer voices and a more comfortable room
  • Better acoustics without compromising your interior

Frequently asked questions about acoustics in your kitchen

How much acoustic material do I need?

That depends on the room size, its furnishings and the amount of hard surface. Start with the largest open reflective area and ask for advice if you are unsure.

Where should I place acoustic panels?

Choose an open wall or ceiling area near the main sound source. The best position depends on the layout and how you use the room.

Can I compare PET felt colours at home first?

Yes. Samples let you compare colours and textures in your own interior, in both daylight and evening light.
