Sound insulation for apartments

Sound insulation for apartments

"Sound insulation measures should be taken into account as early as the planning phase of a residential project."

We provide sound insulation services both for commercial clients such as property developers, architects and building management companies, and for private individuals. For commercial clients our services primarily concern the structural sound insulation between adjacent residential units. This covers airborne and impact sound insulation as well as the sound insulation of the building envelope required by the building code (windows, doors, walls, …), which forms part of the building physics certification of a submission.

For private clients there are additional subjective sound insulation requirements to be met, such as disturbing noise sources in the neighbourhood or within one’s own home.

For every acoustic situation an individual solution is developed together with the client, and recommendations as well as concrete optimization measures are implemented. In the private sector in particular, simple means can already achieve a marked improvement.

Our many years of experience in both the commercial and the private sector allow us to provide optimal advice, taking into account all the legal, economic and social requirements of a project.
