Flexibility meets dynamism
With an average useful life of three years for office space, continuous restructuring and innovative design approaches are necessary. To meet the challenges of modern working environments, it is important to bring this flexibility and adaptability to the space. This requires modular furniture and room dividers that can be easily rearranged and offer versatile usage options.
Our solution? The apn® Gig XL is an innovative acoustic screen that adapts perfectly to the requirements of modern office environments. This clever 2-in-1 solution serves both as a high-performance acoustic absorber and as a flexible room divider that creates new working areas in no time at all.
Versatility is its strength. Thanks to the practical folding system, the apn® Gig XL is easy to set up, dismantle and stow away – ideal for agile work surfaces that need to be rearranged frequently. Thanks to the clever click system, several elements can be combined with each other to separate larger areas or create individual room concepts.
Our acoustic screen is the secret weapon for maximum adaptability in any office situation. Whether as a temporary partition wall for project teams, as an acoustic screen for concentrated work or as a flexible room divider for spontaneous meetings – the apn® Gig XL adapts to any challenge. Its flexibility and ease of use make it a must-have for dynamic working environments.

Your company shapes the space
Spaces provide a framework, the physical structure, but it is your company that shapes the spaces.
Every company and every room has individual (acoustic) requirements that require flexible measures. Your company philosophy plays an active role in the design of the room, which significantly influences the atmosphere of the working environment.
The design of modern workspaces should be considered holistically. Space planning, functionality, digitalization, interior design and room acoustics must be harmoniously coordinated. Essential elements are colors, materials and shapes. Colors lend the environment a special expressiveness and, together with shapes and materials, contribute to the well-being and productivity of employees.
Room acoustics are an often underestimated aspect of (re)design. In addition to improving the audible and tangible quality, it can also be integrated into the design. Acoustic elements can be integrated subtly and discreetly or serve as a striking eye-catcher. A CI-compliant design ensures that the corporate philosophy is clearly emphasized.
Our project-based production enables us to offer customized room acoustics solutions that are precisely tailored to your needs while ensuring efficient use of resources. We do not have a minimum order quantity – we manufacture from as little as 1 unit, allowing us to respond flexibly to the individual requirements of each company.
Your company shapes the space, and we support you – individually, acoustically and inspirationally.
Courage to change
The only constant in (working) life is change – it is the key to success. However, change and development also mean getting rid of old habits and developing new routines. In order to drive real change in work processes and a modern work culture in a company, the involvement of employees should be a central factor in this change management process. This upheaval requires courage and openness – from the company itself and its employees.
Our core competence is the sound of a room. We support you in bringing spaces to the fore. With our expertise, we help you to transform your spaces into places where you can experience your corporate philosophy instead of just seeing them as a workplace. A well thought-out design and the right room acoustics play a key role in ensuring that employees feel comfortable in the office and can work productively.
The design of the rooms – including a personalized furniture and acoustics concept – is an integral part of the change. However, redesign alone cannot complete the change process. A holistic transformation in the New Work process also requires a comprehensive approach: From involving employees in the change process, to spatial change and individual room acoustics. Thanks to our close network of partners, we can support you in every single phase.
Change is an opportunity and necessary for success. With the right support and a well thought-out space concept, the transition to New Work can be successfully shaped.

Interview with Arne Thomas
Introducing: Arne Thomas! In our interview, he talks about his experiences to date and his expectations of the new position. Read on and get to know him better!
Can you briefly introduce yourself?
“My name is Arne, I’m 31 years old and I live in Krefeld with my girlfriend and our daughter. After completing two apprenticeships – one as a bargeman and the other as a logistics and forwarding agent – I worked in the shipping industry until 2020 and was able to gain valuable experience in various roles. Thanks to my sound commercial knowledge, I developed an affinity for sales early on, which ultimately led me to this area in the fall of 2020. Since then, sales has not just been a job for me, but my passion, and I can’t imagine doing anything else.”
Why did you want to join us?
“To answer this question, I have to go back a little: I first came into contact with apn® during my time as a sales representative at Vescom, a manufacturer of wall coverings and fabrics. During this time, I learned to appreciate the importance of room acoustics in the construction industry and was convinced of the individuality and high standards of apn® right from the start. It quickly became clear that apn® not only offers standardized solutions, but also develops tailor-made concepts – with a high degree of planning, calculation and production for each individual project. I was particularly impressed by the manufactory-like structure of apn®, the outstanding engineering and the variety of design options. Another key factor was apn®‘s holistic approach: from the initial consultation to the acoustic calculation, conceptual planning, production in northern Germany and final assembly, everything is offered here from a single source. This comprehensive expertise and the values of apn® motivated me to become part of the team.”
What aspects of your work with us are you most looking forward to?
“What I look forward to most are the exciting and challenging discussions with interior designers and clients, especially with regard to room acoustics. I love working with clients to find and implement solutions for their individual challenges. Of course, I would also like to make my contribution to further advancing apn® and actively shaping the company’s success story.”
What do you like to do in your free time?
“Due to my family situation, spending time with my family is particularly important to me – whether it’s doing things together or simply relaxing in the garden. Apart from that, I like to play soccer or enjoy time with my friends.”
We look forward to working with Arne. You can contact him directly here.
Interview with Dirk Schulz
Today we would like to introduce you to Dirk Schulz in more detail. In this interview, you can find out more about his vision, why he chose us and what inspires him.
Can you briefly introduce yourself?
“Hi, I’m Dirk – a sales person, acoustics enthusiast and fan of smart solutions.
My goal? My focus is not just to sell acoustic solutions, but to actively help shape them – always with an eye on aesthetics, functionality and the people in the room. I want to create rooms that not only look good, but also sound good. Because “the eye also hears” – and I make sure that both fit.”
Why did you want to work for us?
“Because apn® makes acoustics tangible. It’s not just about absorbers, but about real solutions for tangible quality of life and work. apn® is more than just an employer for me – there is a real passion for room acoustics here. I wanted to be part of a team that emphasizes innovation and quality and works on an equal footing with companies and people. And that’s exactly what I want to bring to the outside world!”
What aspects of your work are you most looking forward to?
“Three things: inspiring people, developing solutions and putting apn® further on the map. Acoustics is not just technology, it’s emotion. Acoustics is not everything, but without the right acoustics, everything is nothing! And that’s exactly what I want to establish in the market.”
What do you like to do in your free time?
“I love discovering new perspectives and meeting new people – be it through sports, traveling or eating good food (sushi is my personal power source food!). I’m also interested in financial knowledge, the stock market, my personal financial freedom fund, new technologies and being inspired wherever I am.
Because ultimately it’s always about: From function to feeling – places that inspire. POWER-SOURCE space & acoustics.”
We look forward to continuing our collaboration with Dirk. You can contact him directly here.
