Non-Invasive Acoustic Upgrade for a Glass Sales Office
Berger Paints engaged MMT Acoustix to resolve acoustic issues inside a glass-partition sales office in Greater Kailash, South Delhi. While the transparent envelope and open layout looked premium, the large glass surfaces were causing strong sound reflections, echo and speech discomfort for the sales team.
We designed and supplied custom-sized, retractable acoustic curtains in a premium beige finish to cover the full height and width of critical glass partitions. Within an 88 m² office footprint, the solution delivered immediate improvements in speech clarity, reduced echo and a more comfortable working environment, without compromising the brand aesthetics of Berger Paints.

01 / The brief
Echo & Speech Discomfort in a Glass-Heavy Office
The sales office was built with extensive glass partitions to maintain visual openness and a modern, premium feel. However, acoustically this introduced multiple issues:
-
Severe Sound Reflections
Conversations bounced off glass surfaces, making discussions sound harsh and tiring.
-
Disruptive Echo
Reverberation impacted focus and made day-to-day communication difficult during busy hours.
-
Limited Existing Absorption
Carpets and furniture did not provide sufficient acoustic control.
-
Design Constraint
Any solution had to preserve the premium Berger Paints branding and allow flexibility in visibility when required.
02 / The approach
Custom Acoustic Curtain System for Glass Partitions
Provide an effective acoustic treatment for a hard, glass-dominant office without altering the partition system, while retaining the premium, branded appearance expected from Berger Paints’ customer-facing spaces.
-
01
Site Assessment & Measurement
- Identified primary reflective zones along full-height glass partitions.
- Took precise measurements to ensure complete coverage of critical glass surfaces.
- Planned curtain track locations to integrate with the existing interior layout and lighting.
-
02
Premium Acoustic Curtain System
- Used dense, premium acoustic curtain fabric to add effective sound absorption along glass lines.
- Beige shade chosen to complement Berger Paints’ interior palette and brand image.
- Full-height drops from ceiling track to near-floor level for maximum acoustic performance.
-
03
Retractable & Flexible Operation
- Retractable design allowing curtains to be opened for transparency or closed for acoustic comfort.
- Simple track-based system for quick operation by staff.
- Delivered both functional noise control and operational flexibility for meetings and presentations.
03 / Products and Installation
Acoustic Curtains as an Elegant, Non-Invasive Treatment
-
Premium Acoustic Curtains
High-density, sound-absorbing curtains tailored to size for each glass partition, designed to reduce reflections and soften the overall acoustic response of the room.
-
Custom Tracks & Hardware
Ceiling-mounted curtain tracks installed with minimal intrusion, allowing full coverage where needed while keeping the system easy to maintain and operate for daily use.
-
Quick, Clean Installation
Installation was planned around office working hours to minimise disruption. No changes were made to the glass partitions themselves, making this a fast, reversible and non-structural acoustic upgrade.
04 / Outcome
A Quieter, More Refined Sales Environment
-
Reduced Sound Reflections
Strong glass-induced reflections were significantly reduced, creating a calmer acoustic environment aligned with day-to-day sales operations.
-
Improved Speech Clarity
Conversations with customers and internal discussions became clearer and less tiring, enhancing communication quality in the sales office.
-
Aesthetic & Brand Alignment
Premium beige curtains complemented the interior design and Berger Paints’ brand image, while the retractable system preserved visual openness when required.
