Its products include soundproofing insulation, acoustic panels, rock wool fire resistant and other products.

When sound waves hit a surface, they vibrate and cause the particles in that material to move and create friction, which reduces the intensity of the sounds. Some materials, like curtains and acoustic panels, have a special fabric that is designed to absorb vibrations. The material’s thickness and composition also contribute to its ability to reduce sound.

BuildTec Soundproofing: Enhancing Acoustic Comfort in Your Living Spaces

Some soundproofing methods can be applied at any point, but large-scale soundproofing is typically done during construction. This allows for the installation of the materials as the building is being constructed, which can help to minimize the amount of time and money spent on the process later.

Ceilings: Adding a thick layer of insulation between ceiling joists is one of the most effective ways to minimize the sound that passes through walls. This can be achieved using traditional insulator materials or specially-designed sound-canceling insulation.

Walls: Adding a soundproofing barrier between studs is another important step in minimizing the amount of sound that escapes from a room. This can be accomplished with standard drywall or a special sound-absorbing product like Mustwall.

Windows: Adding sound-reducing windows is a good way to limit the amount of noise that enters a room from outside. This can be done by installing Nicetown 100% Blackout Curtains Noise Reducing Drapes or using a special product like Green Glue Noiseproofing Sealant With Cleanup Wipes.
