Acoustic Insulation

Reduces noise in the building and enhances well-being.

Noise can be annoying and even harmful to health. The need for insulation varies depending on the building’s location, whether it’s on a busy street or near an airport, as well as its use as offices or residences.

With PVC windows, you have the right solution for your individual needs and can enjoy a comfortable environment.

We live in a noisy world. We are exposed to sounds that affect our quality of life 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

That’s why it’s important to have a quiet and healthy place to retreat to, seeking a better quality of life and the opportunity to carry out a wide range of activities.

Everglass aims to ensure that everyone can live, rest, sleep, or work in an ideal environment.

Noise is a serious threat to health.

The increase in noise levels in urban areas is becoming one of the most significant forms of pollution in recent years. The rise in traffic on urban roads, public space construction, machinery, industrial activities, etc., are the main contributors to the discomfort caused by the rise in noise we perceive in our homes coming from the outside. Several studies by the World Health Organization (WHO) reveal that noise causes numerous health issues, some of which can be irreparable.

The harmful effects can be related to physical health, such as high blood pressure, mental stress, heart attacks, and damage to the auditory system. Moreover, noise can also have a negative impact on learning.

PVC as a noise insulator.

“Acoustic insulation is measured by the difference between the incident and transmitted sound intensity levels through the building element.”

The systems offered by Everglass are ideal for any type of insulation due to several factors that we will discuss next. But first, it is important to understand that sound transmission occurs mainly in two ways:

  • By diffraction: When sound hits a separating element between two rooms, it causes that element to vibrate, transmitting the sound into the room.

  • By filtration: Through holes and openings. To measure this, the concept of “air permeability” is used, which measures the amount of air passing through a closed window.
