Offices & Public Facilities

As is well known, the design of work and functional spaces directly influences the well-being, ability to concentrate, and long-term health of the people who spend time there every day. In public facilities, administrative buildings, offices, workspaces, laboratories, or industrial meeting areas, lighting, acoustics, and visual structure are key factors in the success of modern interior design.

Architectural Interior Design That Makes an Impact—for Planners, Project Managers, and Industrial Clients

Primex’s versatile solutions—including light walls, light ceilings, acoustic panels, suspended ceiling panels, room dividers, and acoustically effective partitions—allow functional requirements and design visions to be perfectly combined. Architects and designers enjoy maximum creative freedom: All elements can be manufactured not only in classic rectangular shapes but also in round or custom shapes—as wall or ceiling solutions, freestanding or built-in.

This freedom of form makes it possible to conceive of lighting and acoustic surfaces as integral components of modern architecture—functionally tested, visually appealing, and versatile.

Acoustic Optimization – Productive Spaces with Low Reverberation Time

Disturbing reverberation times occur particularly in open-plan layouts or high-traffic areas, which severely impair intelligibility, concentration, and work quality. The so-called Lombard effect—the unconscious tendency to raise one’s voice in the presence of ambient noise—further exacerbates this problem and, over the long term, leads to stress and increased strain on employees.

Design Meets Function: Flexible Design with Textile Stretching Frames

All acoustic elements also serve as visual design elements. Whether featuring soothing nature motifs, inspiring graphics, or neutral designs—the customizable acoustic textile prints can be seamlessly integrated into any color scheme or interior design concept.
With high-performance acoustic elements such as ceiling panels, partition walls, acoustic panels, and baffles, Primex offers effective solutions for targeted sound absorption. The tested absorbers, made of sound-absorbing filling material, are available in several depths and can be precisely tailored to the specific room volume—for predictable, custom acoustic quality.

Visual Zoning & Structure Through Room Dividers and Wall Absorbers

Acoustically effective room dividers and desk partitions help organize open-plan office spaces, create a sense of visual calm, and promote focused work. At the same time, they protect sensitive conversations—for example, in consultation areas, call centers, or administrative units—by directly shielding direct sound.
Thanks to their modular design, these elements can also be retrofitted without altering the building structure—ideal for renovations of existing buildings or flexible space concepts.

Creative Potential Through Careful Selection of Motifs

Combining these elements with printable acoustic textiles in photographic resolution unlocks additional design potential: the choice of motifs, color schemes, or branding in line with corporate identity (CI) makes each acoustic element an integral part of the overall architectural concept. Thanks to prints that can be replaced without tools, zones can be updated seasonally, thematically, or to suit specific projects.

Acoustic walls for more quiet and structure in an open-plan office

Open-plan offices enable flexible work arrangements and promote collaboration within the team. At the same time, however, they present acoustic challenges that can interfere with concentration and communication. Acoustic partitions help clearly separate different zones within a room and significantly reduce background noise. They help create quiet workspaces and make meetings more pleasant. Combined with motivational imagery, they support a productive and inspiring work environment.

Acoustic panels for tranquility and well-being in the dining room

At the Kiel Pain Clinic, the dining room was redesigned to be a place of relaxation. Large-scale wall murals with regional themes and solid-color ceiling panels serve not only as design elements but also as a highly effective acoustic solution. Background noise is noticeably reduced, and conversations are clearly audible—promoting greater tranquility and well-being. “The effect is impressive,” says Prof. Dr. Hartmut Göbel. With our acoustic panels, every room becomes an acoustic and visual highlight.

Acoustic Partitions – Effective Space Solutions for Focused Work

Modern offices rely on open-plan layouts that promote communication and flexibility. At the same time, there is a desire for privacy and undisturbed work. Acoustic partitions offer a well-thought-out solution here: desk partitions create a visual and acoustic barrier right at the workstation. Larger elements divide the space into different zones—for example, for teamwork, meetings, or focused work. This preserves the open layout while simultaneously creating optimal conditions for focused work.

Lighting solutions with aesthetic and biological effects

Modern lighting concepts deliberately rely on indirect, glare-free light that can be dynamically adapted to the time of day, intended use, and the specific room layout. Primex’s light walls and light ceilings create expansive light sources that are both aesthetically pleasing and physiologically soothing.

  • color perception and contrast
  • visual acuity and concentration
  • hormonal balance (e.g., through the regulation of melatonin and serotonin)
  • the visual depth and sense of space

All lighting systems are dimmable—optionally via DALI control—and combine low operating costs with a long service life. Thanks to the vibrant textile prints, corporate designs, wayfinding systems, or atmospheric images can also be integrated into the lighting design.

LED Light Wall – Atmospheric Accents for Modern Meeting Rooms

Windowless or dark areas often lack the right atmosphere—an LED light wall offers an effective solution here. With atmospheric motifs, customizable colors, and modern LED technology, the room is visually opened up and impressively showcased. In meeting rooms in particular, this creates a highlight that not only looks great but also positively influences the sense of space. The design integrates perfectly into modern concepts such as the industrial look and turns any wall into a real eye-catcher.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Primex lighting and acoustic solutions suitable for in office and administrative settings?

Primex offers specialized lighting and acoustic solutions for work environments in offices, government agencies, public institutions, and administrative buildings. These systems not only improve room acoustics and lighting but also play a key role in enhancing employees’ well-being, concentration, and work quality. They are specifically designed for use in open-plan offices, conference rooms, waiting areas, and reception areas.

Why are good lighting and acoustic conditions so important in public facilities?

Public spaces such as government offices, city halls, educational institutions, and social service agencies often experience high foot traffic and a high volume of conversation. Disturbing reverberation and inadequate lighting have a negative impact on work quality and communication. Primex solutions create a calm, structured atmosphere—ideal for focused work, consultations, or teamwork.

How do Primex products support modern office and administrative architecture?

These systems offer architects and designers maximum creative freedom—from classic to organic forms. Whether installed as wall or ceiling solutions,
freestanding or integrated, light ceilings, acoustic panels, suspended ceiling panels, or room dividers adapt flexibly to modern interior concepts in government offices and other workplaces. CI-compliant designs can also be easily implemented.

What fire safety requirements do Primex products meet?

All textiles and materials used meet fire resistance class B1 (flame-retardant) as standard, in accordance with DIN 4102.
Upon request, select materials are also available in fire resistance class A2 (non-combustible). This option offers additional safety, particularly for use in public buildings, places of assembly, or areas with heightened fire safety requirements. We would be happy to advise you on the appropriate material options for your project.

Are Primex's lighting and acoustic products manufactured in accordance with the Workplace Safety and Health Regulations?

Yes, Primex manufactures all lighting and acoustic solutions in compliance with the Workplace Ordinance (ArbStättV) and the supplementary Technical Rules for Workplaces (ASR). Particular attention is given to ASR A1.5/1.2 “Floors,” which states: Obstacles and elevations of up to 4 mm are considered safe provided they are beveled or integrated into the floor.
Primex therefore opts to use 3 mm flat base plates, which pose no tripping hazard and do not restrict the walkway. These particularly flat base plates ensure maximum workplace safety and comply with current safety regulations.

How exactly do acoustic elements help in everyday office life?

In offices with high levels of speech activity, such as call centers, consulting units, or open-plan offices, acoustic elements specifically reduce disruptive reverberation times.
Sound-absorbing ceiling panels, partitions, and wall absorbers minimize noise and improve speech intelligibility. The so-called Lombard effect—raising one’s voice in noisy environments—is reduced, which helps prevent stress and facilitates communication.

Can lighting and acoustic solutions also be installed in existing buildings?

Yes. Primex’s modular solutions are ideal, especially in public buildings that are protected as historic landmarks or subject to strict building codes. They can be installed quickly and easily, removed without leaving any residue, and require no structural modifications—making them perfect for retrofitting existing buildings.

What are the functions of acoustic room dividers and desk partitions in office buildings?

Acoustically effective room dividers organize open office spaces into clearly defined zones—for example, for individual workstations, consultations, reception, or back-office areas. They provide privacy, reduce direct sound, and promote focused work. At the same time, they create visual order and a calm atmosphere in publicly accessible areas.

Can the acoustic solutions be customized to match the corporate design of a government agency or institution?

Yes. The acoustic textiles can be custom-printed—for example, with the institution’s logo, cityscapes, or subtle color schemes. This allows the elements to blend harmoniously into existing design guidelines or architectural concepts and helps create a cohesive look.

In which rooms of public facilities is its use particularly useful?

Primex solutions are ideal for:

  • Open-plan offices and administrative areas
  • Citizen Service Offices and Counseling Centers
  • Conference and Training Rooms
  • Waiting Areas and Reception Areas
  • Common Areas and Team Workspaces
  • Call centers or telephone workstations in government agencies

What technical requirements do Primex's acoustic solutions meet?

All products have been tested in accordance with DIN EN ISO 354 for sound absorption and comply with applicable fire safety regulations. They are durable, easy to maintain, and specifically designed for heavy use in public facilities and office settings.

How flexible are these solutions when it comes to changing requirements in everyday office life?

Thanks to the tool-free, interchangeable fabric covers, the elements can be easily adapted—both visually and acoustically—to suit the season, a specific project, or a reorganization. This is a major advantage, particularly in agile or hybrid office concepts at public institutions.
