Soundproofing vs Sound Absorption – What’s the Difference?
In today’s modern open-plan offices, classrooms, and shared spaces, managing sound effectively is more important than ever. At That’s My Office, we help clients improve their environments through our Koala range of PET acoustic panels – offering both function and style for any workspace.
Understanding the Difference
Soundproofing is designed to prevent sound from entering or leaving a room. It’s a physical barrier that stops noise transmission.
Sound absorption, on the other hand, improves the acoustics within a space. It reduces reverberation and echo, making it easier to hear conversations or presentations without distractions.
What Are Koala Acoustic Panels Made From?
All our Koala acoustic solutions are made from PET (polyethylene terephthalate), a sustainable material derived from recycled plastic bottles. These panels are lightweight, durable, and effective at absorbing sound. Better yet, they’re available in a range of colours, sizes, and patterns to suit your brand or décor.
Benefits of Koala Acoustic Products:
- Manufactured from 100% recycled PET
- Excellent sound absorption properties
- Flexible installation – wall-mounted, suspended, or freestanding
- Customisable shapes and sizes
- Ideal for offices, schools, healthcare, and shared spaces
Does Sound Absorption Make a Room Quieter?
Yes – by reducing echo and controlling reverberation, sound absorption improves clarity and creates a calmer, quieter environment. However, it doesn’t block sound from entering or exiting the space. That’s where soundproofing is needed.
Which One Do You Need?
if your space has an echo, poor sound clarity, or high background noise.
if you need to stop sound travelling between rooms – such as in a meeting room next to a quiet workspace or a music studio.
