Acoustics

Acoustics play a fundamental role in the design, function and overall experience of indoor environments as well as the health and wellbeing of the people inside them. 

Good acoustics minimise unwanted sound (noise) while optimising the auditory experience of a space for its intended purpose.

Stone wool's fibrous structure creates air pockets within the material that trap and absorb sound waves, reducing noise levels within rooms in the case of acoustic ceiling tiles and wall treatments, and blocking sound from travelling between walls with insulation.

So, whether it’s a classroom where children need to concentrate, a healthcare facility where patient recovery benefits from calm and quiet surroundings, or a theatre where the clarity and richness of the sound is central to the experience. We like our spaces to look good. Stone wool can help make them sound good too.

Too much noise, whether it comes from outside a building or within, can have a significant negative impact on people’s health and wellbeing. Stone wool building insulation and acoustic treatments on ceilings and walls can make all the difference. Read on to learn about ROCKWOOL acoustic solutions.
