Rockfon's Rockfon® Mono® Acoustic solution was selected and installed in the stores in Lyon, Marseille and Toulouse to respond to the group's architect's initial request to create bespoke island shapes distributed above the appliance demonstration areas.

A specialist in high-end household appliances, Vorwerk embodies quality, innovation and efficiency. Know-how supported by its two flagship brands: Kobold, for household cleaning, and the food processor Thermomix®.

Vorwerk has developed store concepts to conduct workshops in particular and wanted to have excellent acoustics in these spaces while keeping a special and unique design.

One of the priorities of this site was to work on the acoustics of the place in order to limit noise pollution, more particularly for the product demonstration area, while blending completely with the design and aesthetics existing.

“We wanted ceilings that didn't look like impersonal office ceilings. We wanted ceilings that looked good with strong sound attenuation,” explains Guillaume Martin, Technical Manager at Vorwerk.

The project manager therefore naturally turned to Rockfon® Mono® Acoustic, whose modularity and aesthetics brought this architectural concept to life. This ceiling had to have both a very smooth, deep white appearance without reflection or roughness.

This ceiling also had to be able to support the weight of the numerous equipment suspended or integrated into the ceiling (ventilation, structures, lights, etc.) while offering an aesthetic and light appearance.

It's a successful bet for the Rockfon® Mono® Acoustic, which fits perfectly into the design concept of the shops and which allows optimal comfort during demonstrations.

“Beyond all the acoustic performance of Rockfon ceilings and its adaptability to our custom-made project, it is a recognized brand on the market and well established in France. The Rockfon Mono Acoustic has met all the requirements here. We are very satisfied with the final result and we even plan to continue using this product for our next stores! concludes Bruno Romuald, Development Director at Vorwerk.
