Understand the echo

Why does your bedroom sound hollow?

Smooth wardrobes, windows and bare walls can make sound come back harshly. Especially in minimalist bedrooms, little soft material is left to catch reflections.

  • 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 bedroom

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.

Acoustic products for a less hollow-sounding bedroom

Listen to the room and identify the problem

A bedroom with a hard floor, glass and little soft furnishing can sound hollow. Acoustic products add absorbent surface to help reduce reverberation. Noise from traffic, neighbours or building services also needs attention at the source and at the way it enters the room.

A calm look on the wall or ceiling

Wall Arch, felt tiles or an acoustic painting can use a free wall. A ceiling island is another option when the wall is already taken. Take the bed position, wardrobes, curtains and available fixing spots into account in your design. Choosing a product to reduce echo is not a proven promise about sleep quality.

Matching colour, position and quantity

Compare the colour in the daylight and evening light of your room using the right samples. Measure the room and the intended mounting surface. Check the construction and fixing of each product, and let us know via contact which sound situation you want to improve.

Frequently asked questions

Do acoustic panels help against traffic noise outside?

The absorbent products on offer target reverberation inside the room. They are not structural insulation for windows, facades or ventilation openings against traffic noise.

Do panels guarantee I will sleep better?

No such guarantee follows from the product data. The products can help reduce echo; sleep quality depends on other circumstances and is not promised here as a product result.

Can I put a panel above the bed?

Check the product mounting, the surface and a safe fixing for that spot. Agree any hanging system or unusual wall finish in advance; do not choose the location on looks alone.

Should I include curtains and wardrobes in the assessment?

Yes, furniture and soft furnishings affect the space. Send them along with the room dimensions, glazed areas and free mounting spots when you ask for advice.
