ROCKWOOL wall sound insulation

ROCKWOOL wall sound insulation

Home is a place for relaxation and enjoyment, but in today's world we are increasingly disturbed by different sounds of traffic, pedestrians, construction works or other sounds coming from neighboring apartments. Noise can significantly affect the quality of life and brings with it a number of consequences such as loss of concentration and insomnia.

In order to contribute to the modern way of life, sound insulation of the wall helps to reduce the transmission of sound through internal and external walls in residential and commercial buildings. ROCKWOOL solutions they effectively reduce the impact of noise on your building or another project.

If you are wondering why we need sound insulation and what they are Rockwool produces the best solution for quality sound insulation, continue reading today's blog.

The importance of wall sound insulation

High-quality and properly installed sound insulation of the wall can greatly limit the transmission of noise from the external environment, between buildings, and even within the same office or house. Unwanted noise entering homes from the outside environment and neighboring apartments can cause sleep disturbances, which in turn can potentially lead to other health risks. Sound insulation of the walls reduces the level of exposure to noise and creates a more pleasant living environment.

Thus, healthier buildings can have a positive impact on office workers as well. Reducing the influence of external noise and loud neighboring offices can raise the level of productivity and health of employees. 

Key benefits Rockwool sound insulation includes:

  • Protection from internal and external noise
  • Simple installation

Enriched modern life through increased comfort and privacy

ROCKWOOL solutions for quality sound insulation

The ROCKWOOL product range includes acoustic panels, which provide effective absorption of sound and resonance of hollow and partition walls and plasterboard walls.

Some of the benefits Rockwool products:

  • Strong sound insulation system
  • Sustainability
  • Robustness for different applications

Additional benefits are fire resistance and water repellency.

ROCKWOOL sound insulation installed in a cavity wall offers highly absorbent properties, which removes cavity resonances and improves the overall sound performance of the wall. Rigid or semi-rigid panels ensure that the cavity is completely filled, without gaps.

Filling a drywall cavity with ROCKWOOL insulation can help significantly improve airborne sound insulation by 8 or 10 dB.

ROCKWOOL Acoustic panels

You can find it in the Thermodynamics range ROCKWOOL Acoustic panels which are adapted for the insulation of partition walls, suspended ceilings and acoustic systems. Due to its fibrous structure, stone wool dampens sound waves and is therefore used for increased sound insulation requirements.

PROPERTIES

  • non-combustible material - reactions to fire A1
  • contributes to the sound insulating power of the wall construction thanks to the fibrous structure of stone wool
  • excellent thermal insulation properties – low thermal conductivity coefficient value (λ)
  • vapor permeability
  • water repellency
  • dimensional stability
  • chemical neutrality

According to information from the World Health Organization (WHO), noise pollution has a significant impact on people's health, and individuals who live and work in cities are a particularly vulnerable group. Controlling the noise level at its source is not always possible, so the solution is high-quality sound insulation of the building envelope. Rockwool sound insulation panels are particularly useful solutions for installation in walls and floors between spaces in a residential block or office complex. Their application reduces the amount of noise entering the living or working environment.
