Acoustic insulation

What is acoustical insulation?

Acoustical insulation refers to materials and methods to reduce unwanted noise inside buildings. India's bustling cities are ever-expanding. External noise from traffic, construction, and daily life can be overwhelming. Acoustical insulation helps create quieter indoor spaces. It limits outdoor noise entering through walls, floors, ceilings, doors, and windows.

In an urban environment, acoustical insulation is essential. It ensures comfort in the home. TECHNAL offers solutions with acoustic insulation integrated into windows, doors, and other products. Ideal for both new builds and renovation projects. Transform your home into a peaceful oasis no matter where it is.

What insulation is best for acoustics?

The best acoustic insulation depends on a combination of materials and installation techniques. Materials such as acoustic glazing in doors and windows are effective in reducing noise transmission. This involves multiple layers of glass, creating a barrier protecting from external noise. In aluminium products, these materials can make a significant difference in soundproofing.

TECHNAL’s aluminium products include double-glazed doors and double-glazed windows Additionally, robust seals are used. This combination provides one of the most effective acoustic insulation solutions. Compared to other materials, like wood or uPVC, aluminium offers superior support for thicker glazing. Thanks to this, you can enjoy greater noise reduction and improved durability.

Where is acoustic insulation used?

Acoustic insulation is typically used in key areas like windows, doors, walls, and ceilings. Windows and doors are often the main entry points for noise. TECHNAL’s aluminium solutions are designed to block out external noise. Perfect for urban homes where peace and quiet are essential, especially at night for a good sleep.

Is acoustic insulation effective?

Yes, acoustic insulation is highly effective in reducing external noise. It also improves indoor comfort. Here are some key benefits of acoustic insulation in aluminium doors and windows:

• Enhanced comfort. Acoustic insulation is particularly beneficial in busy Indian cities. Here, outdoor noise can be constant and disrupt your peace. Properly insulated homes remain quiet and comfortable.

• Increased privacy: Soundproof doors and windows offer greater privacy. It prevents conversations from being overheard. This is especially useful for those working from home or in densely populated areas.

• Improved energy efficiency: Acoustic insulation typically works alongside thermal insulation. This helps to regulate indoor temperature and reduce energy costs.

• Higher property value: Homes with superior soundproofing and insulation are more attractive to buyers. Investing in acoustic insulation increases the value of your property.

TECHNAL’s aluminium products not only offer style but also ensure serenity. Whether you live in a bustling city, beside noisy neighbours, or near an airport. Acoustic insulation makes your home a more peaceful haven.

Enhancing acoustic insulation with aluminium solutions

Aluminium’s strength and durability allow for the installation of thicker glazing. By creating a thicker barrier, you can significantly improve soundproofing. Compared to materials like wood or uPVC, aluminium’s rigid structure enables better noise insulation. All the while, aluminium maintains its sleek and aesthetic appeal. TECHNAL’s aluminium joineries are crafted to block out noise. Our products create a quieter and more comfortable living space.

How TECHNAL’s acoustic insulation reduces noise

TECHNAL delivers aluminium solutions that are not only durable and stylish. They are also acoustically efficient. All installations meet strict quality standards, ensuring long-lasting performance and reliable noise reduction.

Active acoustic windows:

We continually invest in research and development. We strive to remain at the forefront of innovation. Our patented Active Acoustic Windows are a perfect example of this. Even when open, they are designed to reduce external noise. This is achieved thanks to both passive and active technologies, optimising sound control. Here is a brief explanation how:

• Passive technology: When the window is opened by 10 cm, the side walls of the frame create a tunnel effect. This blocks medium- to high-pitched noises, such as voices.

• Active technology: This system senses noise. It generates counter-sound waves to cancel out lower-frequency sounds, like traffic. This feature is particularly useful in India’s noisy urban environments. Create a calm interior, even when windows are open.

With a 10 cm opening and specialised acoustic glazing, TECHNAL’s windows can reduce noise levels by up to 25 dB. This means that indoor noise is approximately 300 times quieter than outside. Our innovative system allows for ventilation without sacrificing serenity in the home.

Why Choose TECHNAL Aluminium Joineries?

• Material innovation: TECHNAL’s aluminium profiles are engineered with specialised materials. These materials disrupt sound waves, ensuring a quieter home.

• Strong seals: High-quality seals in windows and doors are crucial for soundproofing. We use durable seals to ensure that windows and doors close tightly. This prevents outside noise from entering.

• Smart glass: The choice of glass windows or glass doors is critical for sound insulation. TECHNAL uses advanced double or triple glazing with sound-absorbing glass layers. The space between the glass panes further reduces sound transmission.

• Custom solutions: Our expert team understands that every project has unique requirements. We offer customisable aluminium solutions. Tailor your windows or doors to your specific noise reduction needs. Without compromising on performance or appearance.

With over 25 years of experience in the Indian market, TECHNAL understands the region’s unique noise challenges. Our aluminium solutions provide exceptional noise insulation while maintaining aesthetic appeal and durability. Let us help you create a quieter, more comfortable space.
