WINEA SINUS is a versatile acoustic system for optimizing room acoustics in the office. Thanks to its modular structure, it can be flexibly adapted to different room sizes and conditions. With the acoustic elements, acoustic solutions can be implemented for reception areas, lounges, cafeterias or even desk sharing workstations. WINEA SINUS can improve room acoustics and is also a design element. With the individually printable fabrics, you can set visual accents. High-quality, recyclable materials and a well thought-out, durable design make WINEA SINUS sustainable acoustic furniture.

Room acoustics describes the individual perception of sound within a room and depends primarily on a person’s listening experiences and subjective perceptions. Physical factors such as room size, the surface properties of building and interior elements, and the room’s function have a significant influence on room acoustics. In many office buildings, sound-reflective glass and concrete surfaces dominate; while these may look modern, they rarely provide an acoustically user-oriented design. Effective acoustic planning takes various quality criteria into account and, through precise measurements and targeted measures, aims to create a sound environment in the room that is tailored to its specific use.
With the WINEA SINUS acoustic system, WINI offers a solution that meets all requirements for attractive and code-compliant room acoustics in the office: The modular frame elements, which can be easily linked together, can be used as desk panels, partition walls, acoustic art, wall absorbers, or even as ceiling sails. The wide variety of element sizes, fabric colors, and options available with WINEA SINUS gives you plenty of flexibility to customize the design of your office spaces.
The acoustic performance of WINEA SINUS can be adjusted—even retroactively—depending on room usage, location, and the required absorption level. You can choose between acoustically effective and recyclable polyester nonwoven fabric or, alternatively, a freely vibrating metal membrane for sound absorption in the low-frequency range. WINEA SINUS thus offers customizable sound absorption in the range from αw = 0.8 (Absorption Class B) to αw = 1 (Absorption Class A) and can therefore be used in all office areas.
Versatile enough to be used as partition walls, desk panels, acoustic artwork, or ceiling sails, WINEA SINUS impresses not only with its adaptability but also with its effective noise reduction and its ability to create a pleasant working environment.
Reverberation
Time One of the most important factors determining the acoustic quality of a room is its reverberation. Reverberation time is essentially defined by the room’s volume, its surfaces, and the materials within it. Put simply, it indicates the amount of time it takes for a sound event to become inaudible. As a general rule: The larger the room, the longer the reverberation time tends to be. The more sound absorption there is in the room, the shorter the reverberation time and the better the speech intelligibility.
Speech Intelligibility
Speech intelligibility plays a key role in room acoustics planning: Clearly audible phone calls or conversations between colleagues are often perceived as disruptive. In such cases, it makes sense to reduce speech intelligibility, for example, by using sound-shielding room dividers or desk panels. In larger meeting and conference rooms, however, speech intelligibility is usually too low due to long reverberation times. In this case, the use of sound-absorbing ceiling panels and wall panels has a positive effect on speech intelligibility.
WINEA SINUS is a flexible, modular acoustic system made of durable, recyclable materials that can improve room acoustics while also serving as a design element.
