Soundguard
Acoustic Glass
The growth in population and the lack of available land for housing developments and commercial construction is forcing people to live and work in situation where the noise of modern day life impinges on their everyday activities.

Undesirable noise is well recognised as affecting people’s health, concentration and ability to work efficiently. Much noise emanates from increasing road use, air traffic and railways as well as from neighbours and social activities.

A range of Soundguard products are available, which offer solutions to these noise sources by controlling the frequency of sound which is transmitted through glass.

Noise reduction system
Five products are available using specially formulated cast in place resin laminates. These special resins are designed to improve the acoustic de-coupling of laminated glass surfaces and enhance sound reduction performance.

Orders are tailored to the application by altering glass and interlayer combinations to meet the highest of acoustic specifications. Glazeguard offers a range of acoustic laminates which are ideal for controlling noise sources, from road traffic and factory machinery through to aircraft and sound studio’s.
