The Benefits of Acoustic Insulation

Posted on 5th January 2021

Acoustic insulation is perfect if you are looking to soundproof a room, this type of insulation absorbs sound waves, stopping them from passing through to another room. Because of this, this solution is used in confined spaces such as an office, library or even sometimes cafes.

Our team are experienced in handling acoustic insulation, and the perfect material we like to use is Rockwool RW, it is a high-quality resin bonded slab that can be used not only in acoustic insulation, but also thermal and fire-resistant insulation.

These slabs are suitable for a wide range of general building applications, non-combustible, available in a range of densities and are available in black or white tissue, and aluminium foil facings on request.

Rockwool stone wool products work in two very distinct ways to reduce noise, they do this by either impeding the transmission of sound through an element, or by absorbing sound at the surface.

The product is produced from diabase rock, which naturally and continually replenished from the earth at a higher rate than it is produced.          They focus on making sure that recycling is a key part of their business. Their products represent no know threat to the environment as well.

Acoustic insulation is perfect if you are wanting that extra bit of privacy. If you live on a street that has a lot of passing traffic, this will make a huge difference! Another benefit is that it actually adds value to your property, it can be a great selling point for potential buyers.

Not only does acoustic insulation focus on absorbing sounds, but it is also a great type of insulation. Meaning it is great for cutting down heating and cooling costs the same way traditional thermal insulation would.
