A 12-month multicenter study (n=1,420 workers across 18 offices) demonstrated that spaces using AcouSonic’s tuned polyester fiber ceiling and wall systems saw 28% lower self-reported cognitive fatigue and 19% higher task accuracy.
The effect correlated strongly with mid-frequency (500–2000 Hz) absorption uniformity—a key strength of gradient-density polyester panels.
Findings are now cited in the 2024 World Green Building Council Health & Wellbeing Framework as evidence-based acoustic intervention.
