Soundproofing Help and Advice

Cloudsorption - Sound Absorbing Ceiling Panels

2009-10-30T09:12:00.005Z

Today we launched our new Cloudsorption sound absorbing panels. They are a step forward from the more standard tiles applied onto ceilings or suspended ceilings.

Cloudsorption panels are suspended horizontally from a structural ceiling giving more of a ‘cloud’ effect. This method of installation is a far more efficient way of reducing reverberation within a room because it will absorb noise from both below and above the panel. This enables lower frequency noise to be more easily absorbed because of the air space between the top of the Cloudsorption panels and the underside of the ceiling. This easy to install method of fixing enable the acoustic panels to fit beneath electrical fittings and any other services that may already be installed onto ceilings. This system of installation will fit more easily beneath ceilings that have thermal cooling under BREEAM initiatives.

Cloudsorption sound absorbing panels are ideal for use in schools, offices, music studios, shopping arcades, airports, restaurants or any area where a new innovative look is required.

Cloudsorption is available in two versions:

Cloudsorption - Echo Plus is similar to our Echosorption Plus acoustic tiles available in 1200 x 600 x 30mm panels produced from high density sound absorbing core with a factory applied white speckled finish on the face side. This panel has bevelled edges to give it a more pleasing appearance. Each panel is supplied with 4 screw hook eyelets which have to be screwed into the back of the panels for suspension. The panels are supplied 8 to a box and the minimum quantity available is one box. With each box we supply 32 eyelets to be fitted by the installer on site.

Colours: Cloudsorption Echo Plus : White speckled coating

Cloudsorption – Textile and similar to our Type C Wallsorption with a fabric coating available in a variety of sizes and colours up to a maximum of 1.2m x 2.7m. Textile is a 25mm thick sound absorber faced on the visible side with an acoustically porous, decorative fabric that is wrapped around all of the edges to give a very presentable appearance and available in a colour of your choice from the colour chart at the bottom of this page

The number of screw in eyelets required per acoustic panel will depend on the ultimate size and a guide is detailed as follows:

Cloudsorption - Textile acoustic panels – 25mm thick	No. of screw hooks required
1200 x 900mm	4
1200 x 1200mm	4
1200 x 1500mm	6
1200 x 1800mm	8
1200 x 2100mm	10
1200 x 2400mm	12
1200 x 2700mm	14

Colours : Cloudsorption Textile – 20 standard colours are available. See full chart here

NEW - Acoustic Wedge Tiles

2009-07-31T11:22:00.003+01:00

Acoustic Wedge Tiles are a popular method of controlling reverberation within studios and music practice rooms. They have a surface that absorb low and mid frequencies.

Acoustic Wedge Tiles are a popular type of sound absorbing tile that will suit most rooms that are being used as either a music studio or music practice room. Because the tiles are wedge shaped with valleys and peaks going in just the one direction, it means there is more acoustic foam per tile and so more efficient sound absorption across a greater frequency range.

There are two thicknesses available and the thicker version will better absorb low and mid frequencies. The wedge profile of these tiles is probably one most recognised which is why we have two available thicknesses that will offer varying acoustic performance depending on your requirements.

The thinner tiles have a base thickness of 20mm and an overall thickness of 40mm whereas the thicker tiles have a base thickness of 38mm with an overall thickness of 75mm from the peaks giving much better control of unwanted resonances and standing waves.

These Wedge tiles are one of the most popular tiles and are now available from us. The tiles are available in 381mm, 762mm. Each pack covers total area of 3.48m2 and are available in grey to match our Egg Box tiles and some other products.

Does the profile of foam make a difference to performance?

Yes it does and plain faced acoustic foam and profiled foams both have their pros and cons.

First we will discuss plain foam such as our normal sound absorbing foams. Because these have no profile they can be more effective at absorbing sound due to the fact there is more sound absorbing foam.

Where as with profiled foams with their valleys and troughs, there is not the same volume of sound absorbing foam so there is less sound absorption.

The more foam there is to absorb the frequencies then usually, the better the performance will be. Normally, plain faced acoustic foam give a better sound absorption at lower frequencies and typically, the thicker the foam, the better low-end sound absorption will be. Low frequencies have longer wavelengths that mean thicker sound absorbing foam is required to effectively soak these up. Sound absorbing foams absorb sound in a similar way that a sponge absorbs water. The thicker the sponge, the more water it will soak up. The same can be said for acoustic foam, the thicker the foam, the more efficient it will be at absorbing noise, particularly at the low frequency end but be careful, too thick a foam can mean less sound absorption for mid to higher frequencies.

This brings us to the downsides of plain faced foam. Plain faced foams do not have the same surface area as profiled egg box type foams so sound hitting the foam, particularly at shallow angles can have a tendency to Bounce off the foam with little or no sound absorption. Correct placing of the foam can reduce this problem but the plain surface of this type of foam may not be aesthetically pleasing which is one of the reasons why you will often see profiled foam in a studio or music practice room.

Wedge and Egg box and other profiled foams are the preferred choice not only due to their appearance but because they are more efficient at absorbing a wider range of frequencies due to their uneven surface and if the foam is thick enough, will also absorb those annoying lower frequencies. To get the acoustic balance within a room just right, sound absorption of bass notes is a priority and because bass notes usually build up in corners, our plain faced Corner Traps help deal with this instead of a more expensive bass trap. However, if thicker than 73mm sound absorption is required elsewhere, then plain faced foam can be used to build up the thickness and egg box type foam glued on top using our easy to use Sta-Put aerosol adhesive.

As we have said before, profiled sound absorbing foams will trap a greater range of frequencies and will tighten up those mid to high range frequencies that may not necessarily be addressed with thick plain faced foams and will reduce sound reflections within a room. Bass traps will almost certainly be required in addition, to cope with the low end frequencies that are always more difficult to treat and absorb. A combination of profiled foams, plain faced foams and acoustic corner traps will help achieve much better response and control of sound within any room and now means you are able to cut down the reverberation or echo within a room to suit your needs both visually and acoustically.

New - Noisestopper Acoustic Ceiling Pads

2009-06-08T17:03:00.003+01:00

Today we launched our new Noisestopper Acoustic Ceiling Pads.

Noisestopper Acoustic Pads are designed as an easy to install sound blocking insulation that can be laid on top of suspended ceilings. Suspended ceilings are often common to rooms separated by walls that end underneath allowing noise to penetrate the ceiling and easily bounce across any dividing walls into adjacent rooms.

Due to the installation of services above suspended ceilings it is often not possible to extend these walls up to the structural ceiling above or even install an acoustic barrier above them. The answer is the installation of Noisestopper Acoustic Pads that simply sit on top of the existing ceiling tiles. Read more here

New "Egg Box" Style Acoustic Foam

2009-06-02T11:18:00.000+01:00

Today we launched our new Acoustic "Egg Box" style foam. The acoustic tiles are a popular method of controlling reverberation within studios and music practice rooms. They have a surface that resembles an egg box, hence their name and are an inexpensive method of controlling the acoustics.

Egg Box type acoustic tiles are a popular method of controlling reverberation within studios and music practice rooms. They have a surface that resembles an egg box, hence their name and are an inexpensive method of controlling the acoustics. The uneven surface of these acoustic tiles enables them to absorb a greater range of frequencies and sound waves and the thicker the tiles the more efficiently they will absorb lower frequencies. This is why we offer egg box type tiles with an overall thickness of 40mm and 73mm for those lower frequencies.

Both tiles are available in 762mm sizes with 6 tiles per pack

Egg Box type profiled acoustic foam tiles can be easily fixed with our special Sta-Put aerosol adhesive and are available in any colour you want as long as it is grey. They are flame resistant but if a completely non-flammable sound absorber is required, have a look at our white Foamsorption tiles.

All studios and music practice rooms benefit from the installation of acoustic treatment usually on walls and ceilings and our Egg Box Foam Tiles are an efficient way of breaking up any reverberation and echo within the rooms that would otherwise clutter a mix or recording. No efficient studio is without sound absorbing acoustic tiles along with corner base traps and we can offer acoustic corner traps that will help get the best from your studio when used in combination with the Egg Box acoustic tiles.

D.I.Y Sustainable Soundproofing For The Environmentally Aware

2008-10-02T19:16:00.000+01:00

We’re all becoming more environmentally aware with eco-friendly versions of everything from light bulbs to wall paint. But when it comes to the very fabric of your home, it’s often too late and too expensive to opt for green building materials.

With hundreds of soundproofing solutions available in the current market place for commercial and domestic use, we manufacture from sustainable materials such as recycled rubber where possible.

“Very often, homeowners and tenants want to do their bit for the environment but can’t find a way that fits in with their budget and domestic requirements,” said Stephen Young, Office Manager. “Even in new builds, it’s hard to incorporate eco-friendly materials into things such as walls and floors. But with our range of recycled soundproofing solutions, practical home improvement is both affordable and socially responsible.”

According to World Health statistics, half of the UK population is currently being exposed to more than the recommend levels of noise pollution, making soundproofing materials an excellent starting point for those wanting to go green in their home.

Our 100% recycled rubber Acousticel wall panel is designed to upgrade the sound insulation properties of party walls in the home and all types of domestic properties, the rubber mats are an environmentally friendly way to insulate a noisy neighbour with a minimum loss of room space.

What have we achieved so far?
Replaced 50 % of their soundproofing product range with recycled products or products offering a better sustainable index.
Managed to recycle 146,940 rubber car tires which equates to 1,634 tons of rubber with just two products.

Sound Service Silence Tube stations

2008-06-23T19:14:00.000+01:00
Tube Lines works in partnership with London Underground and is rebuilding the Jubilee line, Northern line and Piccadilly line, which together carry 40% of all London Underground passengers.

Sound Service has recently provided consultation and bespoke design to reduce noise at Tube stations during the early hours of the morning.

“We undertake development work at night when stations are closed and take great care to ensure we don't disturb our neighbours. We therefore needed to find an acoustic product to cover station entrances. We worked with Sound Service to develop a bespoke product, a removable curtain that we are now able to use across the Tube network.

“Their dedicated team was able to accommodate all our technical requirements and we're looking forward to working with them on further noise related issues," says Rachael Labruyere, from Tube Lines’ Environmental Team.

The Acoustic Curtain is now available nationwide.

Echosorption PLUS stops school back chat

2008-04-15T21:09:00.000+01:00
We were called to Hillcross Primary School in Merton, London as their school hall was suffering from a noisy 'echo'. This severely reduced the ability to hold normal conversations within the room, particularly when the room was full of children and made it particularly difficult for children with hearing difficulties.

We installed our Echosorption Plus sound absorbing tiles over the entire ceiling and this treatment not only enhanced the appearance of the room but totally transformed the acoustics. The 'echo' was gone and the hall could once again, hold lots of children and staff with no difficulty in speech being heard and understood.

"If you are unsure on whether you have a room that requires this treatment, stand in the middle of the room when it is empty and clap your hands once and listen to the echo. If it takes more than a second for the echo to disappear then you have a reverberation problem that can easily be cured with our products." Describes Stephen Young, Technical Manager

Echosorption Plus is available from stock and is very easy to install. To obtain a FREE sample please email tech@soundservice.co.uk with your details.

Sound Service launch domestic soundproofing website

2008-03-20T23:06:00.000Z
50 % of the UK’s population suffers from noisy neighbours – Are you one of these?

We have been supplying Construction companies and Architects with soundproofing materials and advice for nearly 40 years.

We are pleased to our new Domestic Soundproofing website.
www.keepitquiet.co.uk

The site is loaded with free help articles on how to soundproof all types of noise problems from cars to washing machines and contains a broad range of soundproofing products designed for D.I.Y

“We have always provided the general public with products but have now designed a website specifically with the public in mind. The new website is a simplified version of our main site and is aimed at our customers who want to reduce unwanted noise from neighbours.”

“When selling a property you now have to declare if you have noisy neighbours. Soundproofing therefore increases the properties value and makes it far more sellable if and when you want to move.” Describes Stephen Young, Office Manager.

SOUND SERVICE put children's hearing first

2008-01-16T19:08:00.000Z
We have been awarded a school contract to install sound absorbing Melamine Foam into a classroom and our Echosorption Plus into the main hall of Hillcross Primary School in Morden, Surrey. The contract is to be carried out during the Spring Break in April and the end result will mean the children can hear the teacher more clearly and they are able to concentrate harder on their work.

The install team will be covering the ceilings of many classrooms and some of the walls to help absorb the sound generated by the children. "Many classrooms have poor acoustics. Adults will guess at missing words, children find it much harder to fill in the gaps and their educational development can suffer. The classrooms being treated have children with hearing difficulties and the reduction in reverberation will help them" outlines Stephen Young, Technical Manager for the company.

Innovative Wizard works for Sound service

2007-10-03T19:35:00.000+01:00
Sound Service (Oxford) Ltd is pleased to announce their new innovative Sound Wizard product finder.

Advising on the correct products to insulate your home against noise has always been a complicated process. Many companies spend hours on the phone advising customers as to the right products to use. At Sound Service (Oxford) Ltd they never shy away from speaking to potential customers but have designed, what they believe to be, the first interactive soundproofing advice software in the UK.

“Before developing the Sound Wizard we found that many customers needed advice outside of office hours and that we were inundated with technical emails the following morning” describes Steve Backhouse from the technical team.

Sound Service have been working with Architects, contractors and the general public supplying sound insulation and sound absorbing products since 1969 and has recently undergone a major re brand and new website design.

“Working with our experienced web team we have produced the interactive Sound Wizard which allows customers to obtain detailed technical advice 24 hours a day without the need to call or email us.

While this service does not replace a person it does allow us to effectively expand a complicated process of questions into a simple and easy to use programme” explains Tom Sykes, Development Manager.
