Fabricks Acoustic Brick

The Fabricks Acoustic Brick system is designed to give organisations complete control over how they manage sound, privacy and spatial definition within open‑plan environments. Its modular, fabric‑wrapped bricks allow teams to build acoustic walls that not only absorb noise but also introduce architectural character and visual interest to the workspace. This makes Fabricks an ideal solution for businesses looking to improve acoustic comfort without compromising on design.

Each brick is engineered with a dense acoustic core that helps reduce reverberation and soften background noise, making it easier for teams to focus, collaborate and communicate. Whether used to create semi‑private meeting areas, quiet zones, project spaces, or breakout areas, Fabricks provides a highly effective way to shape the acoustic landscape of modern offices.

The system’s lightweight construction and modular format mean walls can be installed, reconfigured or relocated with ease — perfect for agile workplaces where layouts evolve frequently. Fabricks can be built to various heights and shapes, from low‑level partitions to tall, room‑defining structures, giving designers complete freedom to tailor the system to the needs of the space.

Available in a wide range of fabric colours and finishes, the Fabricks Acoustic Brick can be used to create bold feature walls, subtle acoustic dividers or branded installations that enhance the overall aesthetic of the office. Its sculptural, brick‑like appearance adds texture and depth, helping to elevate the visual identity of the environment.

Ideal for organisations seeking a flexible, design‑led acoustic solution, Fabricks delivers outstanding sound absorption, visual impact and long‑term adaptability — making it one of the most effective ways to manage noise and create functional zones within open‑plan commercial spaces.

Our understanding of how people function in the open plan office has evolved over the last 20 years, and much research has been conducted regarding the effect of the acoustics in the workplace and how this influences productivity and well-being.

The majority of office staff identify noise as a major concern. In addition, employees’ own perceptions of satisfaction and well-being have been shown to be negatively affected.

Studies have shown measured physical symptoms of stress and quantifiable loss of productivity when people are exposed to an uncomfortable acoustic environment.

Previously when it came to solving acoustic problems and improving the workplace environment, the focus was on lowering noise levels; however, it was soon discovered that this alone was ineffective and in many cases made the situation worse.

In recent years, it has become apparent that acoustic comfort in work environments is not only associated with noise levels but is also dependent on the degree to which we can clearly understand speech.

The clearer or more intelligible speech is, the greater its potential to cause distraction. Conversely, the more muffled or less intelligible speech is, the less likely it is to be distracting to listeners, and the more acoustic privacy is afforded to the speakers.
