Tips on choosing the right provider for your soundproofing needs
At Flexshield, we specialise in industrial noise control solutions rather than residential noise concerns. We take this focus because, while we acknowledge that noise pollution is a major problem in both industrial and residential settings, the solutions required for each are vastly different.
Industrial noise control solutions: Acoustic enclosures, silencers, and noise barrier walls
In an industrial setting, noise control is crucial to protect workers from hearing loss and comply with health and safety regulations. Industrial noise sources include machinery, vehicles, and equipment. Noise control for these calls for large-scale, high-spec solutions that are implemented by industrial experts who understand how to reduce noise in large-scale settings.
Effective industrial noise control solutions include:
- Acoustic enclosures that reduce noise levels by up to 20 decibels
- Silencers that reduce noise levels from exhaust systems and air vents, and
- Noise barrier walls that block noise from sources such as highways and railways.
Residential noise control solutions: Soundproofing, window treatments, and landscaping
By contrast, residential noise control is used to reduce noise levels from external sources such as traffic, construction, and neighbours. This excessive noise can cause sleep disturbance, stress, and other health problems.
Residential noise control solutions include adding soundproofing materials to absorb and reflect sound waves on walls, floors, and ceilings. Other solutions include window treatments such as curtains and blinds, noise reduction earplugs, and landscaping that can lock noise from external sources.
Because of this clear contrast with Flexshield’s core products, we advise those with residential noise concerns to seek solutions from providers such as SoundSpace 3, who are experts in this space.
