Office noise can be the reason for reduced productivity in the workplace. Noises from phones, chatter between colleagues, muted traffic sounds outside windows, and air conditioning units contribute to decibel levels in a room. The noises can affect the concentration of employees and result in compromised work quality and productivity. Noise is also known to cause health problems, which can lead to absenteeisms and hinder the success of your organization. Merge Works offers various office furniture solutions that can help you overcome noise challenges in the workplace. This post discusses three solutions that you can install in the office for better acoustics management.
SOLUTIONS FOR BETTER OFFICE ACOUSTIC MANAGEMENT –
PORTABLE WHITEBOARDS
Portable whiteboards have great noise-reduction qualities as they can be used to reconfigure office settings to accommodate changing acoustic needs. They not only provide privacy but also have the ability to reflect sounds, to block or prevent them from traveling to other areas. Whiteboards serve the dual purpose of providing a writing and brainstorming medium as well as noise blocking.

SOUND ABSORBENT PANELS
Sound absorbent panels are a great way to manage acoustics in the workplace. Merge Works uses eco-friendly and sustainable materials that better help control ambient noise levels, allowing employees to better concentrate on their work. In addition, the panels stand at room height, allowing them to act as room dividers and manage the sound levels.
DESK DIVIDERS
Desk dividers work as noise reducers on individual workstations, as opposed to the floor level. They provide ready-made privacy that allows employees to focus on what matters the most, eliminating distractions from surrounding workstations. For instance, telemarketers who work on phones all day can create their zones of privacy to address client needs.
