Acoustic Insulation
Today, quiet is more important than ever
To feel really comfortable in our houses, we need peace and quiet. Thus, effective acoustic insulation is indispensable. Building elements must dampen the transmission of noise originating from both inside and outside buildings. GUTEX insulation boards possess high density, minimum stiffness, and high porosity – exactly the dampening attributes required for effective soundproofing against airborne and impact noise that originates from within or without.
The human ear perceives changes of 10 dB double as loud or half as loud, depending on the direction of the change. If, for instance, roof refurbishment changes the difference between noise outside and inside from 34 db to 46 db, our subjective impression would tell us the measures reduced the level of noise by 50 percent.
