Technical Resources
Understanding Rw Ratings — A Plain-Language Guide
An Rw rating is the standard measure of sound reduction, measured in decibels (dB). Higher rating means greater acoustic separation. Rw 30-35: Low-demand applications (informal breakout, visual privacy). Rw 36-42: General office and education (speech privacy). Rw 43-50: Conference rooms, music rooms, medical suites. Rw 51-56+: Premium applications (performance venues, boardrooms, studios). Lotus Doors' 125 Series achieves up to Rw 56. Rw measures sound isolation (through a wall), while NRC measures sound absorption (within a room). Read full guide.
Acoustic Design for Schools and Learning Environments
Poor acoustics impair learning outcomes with lower comprehension, higher stress, and reduced concentration. Primary classrooms typically require Rw 40-45, secondary/specialist rooms Rw 45-50, and school halls with operable walls Rw 48-56. Operable walls suit large openings with high Rw performance and BCA compliance. Mobile partitions like Harmoni suit flexible, frequent division without installation. Read full guide.
