Learn the basics of sound insulation and sound absorption
Understanding the difference between sound insulation and sound absorption is crucial for choosing the right measures:
Sound insulation
Sound insulation is about blocking sound from traveling between different spaces. This requires materials such as heavy sound barriers, acoustic plasterboard, and vibration-damping layers.
Sound absorption
Sound absorption reduces reverberation and echo by capturing sound waves. Materials such as acoustic panels, sound absorbers, and textiles are effective for this purpose.
In our knowledge portal, we go through which products are suitable for different needs and environments, and how you can achieve the best possible sound environment.
