In today’s dynamic event and hospitality environments, flexibility and acoustic control are paramount to creating spaces that serve multiple purposes without sacrificing aesthetics or sound privacy. This case study explores PackSound’s recent project at the renowned Hyatt Regency Bhikaji Cama Place in Delhi, where advanced sliding and folding acoustic partitions were designed and installed to meet the complex demands of a modern luxury hotel.

Project Background

Hyatt Regency Bhikaji Cama Place is one of Delhi’s premier luxury hotels, hosting a wide range of events from high-profile corporate conferences to extravagant weddings and social gatherings. With demand for versatile event spaces increasing, Hyatt Regency sought to implement a solution that would enable rapid transformation of their grand convention halls into smaller, private spaces while also providing excellent sound insulation.

Traditional fixed walls or room dividers did not offer the flexibility or acoustic performance required for such a high-caliber venue. This led the hotel to partner with PackSound, a brand renowned for its expertise in acoustic solutions and architectural flexibility.

The Challenge

The primary challenge was to deliver an acoustic partition system capable of covering an impressive height of 7 meters, suitable for Hyatt Regency’s large and tall interior spaces. The partitions needed to provide superior sound insulation, be visually appealing to match the hotel’s luxurious ambiance, and operate smoothly with sliding and folding mechanisms to enhance ease of use.

Key criteria included:

• Acoustic Performance: Minimal noise transmission to ensure privacy and sound clarity during simultaneous events.
• Height and Coverage: Architectural accommodation of a 7-meter ceiling height without compromising functionality.
• Ease of Operation: Efficient sliding and folding to enable fast setup or retraction depending on event needs.
• Design Integration: Aesthetic harmony with Hyatt Regency’s interior design, emphasizing elegance and sophistication.
• Durability: Robust and reliable hardware for consistent operation over long-term use.

Solution by PackSound

PackSound delivered a customized solution featuring cutting-edge sliding and folding acoustic partitions engineered specifically for the venue’s high ceiling and sophisticated space requirements.

Technical Specifications

• Partitions Height: 7 meters, capable of spanning from floor to ceiling seamlessly.
• Acoustic Insulation: High-density sound-absorbing panels designed to significantly reduce noise transfer between spaces.
• Mechanism: Smooth track-mounted system allowing panels to slide and fold effortlessly, facilitating quick space reconfiguration.
• Materials: Premium composite panels with custom finishes to complement the hotel décor, ensuring the partitions also enhanced the visual appeal.
• Safety and Durability: Sturdy aluminum frames and mechanical components designed for long-lasting performance even with frequent use.

Installation Process

The installation process involved close collaboration between PackSound engineers, hotel management, and interior design teams. Detailed site surveys and acoustical analyses were conducted prior to fabrication, ensuring the partitions met the precise architectural and acoustic requirements.

Installation spanned several weeks and included:

• Preparation and reinforcement of tracking systems to support the 7-meter height.
• On-site assembly of modular acoustic panels.
• Testing for acoustic performance, operational smoothness, and alignment with design specifications.
• Final adjustments and client walkthrough to ensure complete satisfaction.

Impact and Benefits

Since installation, the sliding and folding partitions have transformed the Hyatt Regency’s ability to host multiple events of varying scales simultaneously while maintaining acoustic privacy and aesthetic elegance.

Enhanced Space Flexibility

The partitions enable the hotel staff to quickly redefine room sizes based on guest requirements—from large conventions to smaller breakout rooms or private meeting spaces—maximizing rental revenue potential and operational efficiency.

Superior Acoustic Privacy

Engineered with premium materials and precise seals, the partitions significantly reduce sound transmission between adjacent spaces, improving guest experience by maintaining clear, noise-free environments tailored to each event’s needs.

Streamlined Operations

The sliding and folding functionality allows for easy panel movement along ceiling tracks, minimizing setup times and labor efforts. This operational agility supports rapid event turnovers and dynamic space usage.

Aesthetic Integration

The partitions’ elegant finish and streamlined design blend seamlessly with the hotel’s décor. They maintain the luxurious ambiance without looking utilitarian or industrial, marrying function and beauty.

Sustainability and Longevity

PackSound’s solutions use environmentally responsible materials and are built for durability. This reduces the need for frequent replacements, lowers maintenance costs, and aligns with sustainable building practices that today’s top hotels prioritize.
