The new SmartBio building at Häme University of Applied Sciences is a purpose-built facility supporting sustainable bioproduction and multidisciplinary research. With a strong focus on functionality, safety, and acoustics, it provides a modern environment where innovation and collaboration can thrive.
When noise disrupted communication in the hospital kitchen, Tampere University Hospital improved the space with a simple acoustic upgrade. Just a few sound-absorbing panels created a calmer, more comfortable environment – showing that small changes can have a big impact.
Large industrial spaces with hard surfaces often lead to significant noise issues – but problems are meant to be solved. Asia Pacific Breweries (APB), a major player in the brewing industry, took action to reduce noise levels at its production facilities in Vietnam.
In fast-paced industrial settings, noise is more than a nuisance – it affects health and productivity. At the Unilever Katowice plant, sound management is central to workplace design, setting a new standard for people-first manufacturing.
