Creating Quiet Spaces: How Acoustic Panels Improve Privacy and Productivity

In busy educational and professional environments, noise can be more than just a distraction - it can impact concentration, privacy, and wellbeing. That’s why acoustic panelling is becoming an essential element in the design of modern schools, offices, and healthcare spaces.

At Noxx Industries, we offer high-performance acoustic panels designed to significantly reduce noise and improve sound quality. Whether it's for a large open-plan room or a compact private office, our panels are customisable, durable, and compliant with Australian safety standards.

Why Acoustic Panels?

Our acoustic panelling boasts a high Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) of up to 0.9 - meaning they absorb up to 90% of sound energy. This helps minimise echo, dampen ambient noise, and create a calmer, more controlled space. Made from recycled materials, the panels are also environmentally conscious, resistant to humidity and moisture, and feature flame-retardant properties for added safety.

Available in a range of colours, sizes, and configurations, Noxx acoustic panels can be tailored to blend into existing décor or make a bold design statement. Their versatility makes them ideal for schools, offices, counselling rooms, meeting spaces, and even healthcare environments.

Real-World Application: St John’s Counselling Room

We recently worked with St John’s to help transform a small office into a private counselling room. The goal was to create a quiet, confidential space that could support sensitive conversations without disruption or distraction from surrounding noise.

By installing a selection of our acoustic wall panels, the room was instantly improved - both visually and functionally. The panels absorbed sound reflections, reduced outside interference, and contributed to a calmer, more focused environment. The staff reported an immediate difference in the comfort and privacy of the room, making it a more supportive space for students and staff alike.

The Takeaway

If you're looking to improve school acoustics, add soundproofing to your office, or create private zones for counselling or one-on-one sessions, Noxx acoustic panels offer a practical and effective solution.

From education to corporate spaces, our panels are designed to deliver high performance with long-lasting results.
