Class A Offices

Shaking monitors. Distracted teams. Tenant complaints. Protect the value of your premium space.

A premium address and an impressive fit-out mean less when desks shake and screens move. Persistent floor vibration can disrupt concentration, frustrate staff and leave tenants questioning whether their workplace meets the standard they are paying for.

For owners and asset managers, unresolved complaints can put tenant relationships, lease renewals and valuable occupied space at risk. CALMFLOOR provides targeted active floor vibration control, helping you resolve the problem with minimal disruption and measurable results.

When small movements become a serious business issue.

In demanding office environments repeated monitor movement can make information harder to read and focused work harder to sustain. What begins as an occasional distraction can become a daily frustration, escalating from staff complaints to management pressure for action.

For occupiers, the concern is clear: people need to work comfortably and concentrate. For owners, the stakes extend beyond the affected floor. Persistent dissatisfaction can create pressure for concessions, increase renewal risk and weaken confidence in the building. The longer the issue continues, the harder it can become to restore that confidence.

Modern office interior

Resolve the vibration without a major office upheaval.

Refurbishment, layout changes and new activities can expose vibration problems in spaces that previously performed well. Long-span floors, lightweight structures and mixed-use buildings can be particularly challenging. Structural stiffening may involve opening floors, moving services, adding steel or concrete and temporarily relocating teams. In an occupied premium office, the disruption can be as difficult to accept as the cost. CALMFLOOR offers a practical alternative. Compact Active Mass Dampers connect directly to slabs above or below the floor, or to structural beams, delivering targeted control where vibration has the greatest impact. Depending on access and building design, units can be concealed within floor voids, beneath floors or inside fixed furniture. Installation can often be planned outside working hours, helping keep teams working and valuable space in use.

FLOOR MOUNTED

Installed above the structural floor and typically concealed within the floor build-up or other available space.

SOFFIT MOUNTED

Installed below the floor structure, allowing the occupied floor above to remain unaffected.

BEAM MOUNTED

Attached directly to the supporting structure where this provides the most effective or practical installation location.

Active control.
Measurable improvement.

CALMFLOOR detects and counteracts floor vibration in real time, controlling multiple frequencies simultaneously and adapting as conditions change within its operating range.

Operating across 3–30 Hz , it can reduce problematic floor vibration by up to 90%. Achievable performance, unit numbers and installation locations depend on the structure and project requirements. Used independently or alongside other measures, CALMFLOOR can reduce the need for additional structural steel and concrete, supporting cost and embodied carbon objectives.

CALM Sim app

Establish what works before committing.

With our new CALM Sim software and structural data analysis by us or your consultant can quickly be undertaken to gauge what’s required to stop complaints. Should you need evidence that the proposed solution can address the problem in your building physical testing can be done.

Onsite testing measures floor response with and without active control against agreed objectives. You can experience the difference, review the measured results
and use that evidence to guide a wider installation.

Testing helps establish achievable improvement, unit numbers and locations. It also supports staged deployment, starting with the areas generating the most complaints or operational disruption. Tests can be undertaken with CALMFLOOR or, where available, independent specialists in our partner network.

Ongoing visibility and support.

CALM Connect provides around-the-clock hands-free monitoring, performance data and remote firmware updates.

Included at no extra cost with CALM Care, it combines visibility with maintenance and breakdown cover, subject to the service terms.
