Sound insulation

Elevate the sound insulation of your building to a higher level.

Sound insulation is indispensable when it comes to controlling noise in buildings. Noise pollution from neighbours, passing trains or a nearby nightclub can drive residents crazy. Keeping out noise can also improve health and performance in less serious situations, too. Merford is here to help you get the most out of your building.

Increase relaxation and focus with smart sound insulation solutions for buildings and rooms

With good insulation, you can ensure that loud or bothersome noise doesn’t reach rooms where they create a nuisance. If your neighbours throw a party every weekend, or if you live above a noisy office, good sound insulation can help you keep the nuisance to a minimum. Merford has a wide range of products and total solutions to improve sound insulation in your office, home or factory – from retention systems and vibration-damping materials to piping insulation and sound-insulating doors. So that you can create a safe and pleasant environment.

Frequently asked questions

Sound insulating materials reflect sound. The sound insulation is first determined by the mass of a separating structure. Besides increasing the mass, the sound insulation can be substantially improved by installing limp noise shield systems. The actual effect also depends on the frequency of the sounds to be insulated and obviously the volume. Every situation calls for a specific approach. You should therefore make sure you get good advice before starting work on sound insulation.
Sound absorbing and sound insulation materials are made from different types of materials. They are designed and realised to each fix a different problem. Read more to learn about the difference.

Sound absorbing materials ensure that the noise level in a room is reduced and that reverberation is limited. The materials often have an open structure to allow them to optimally absorb the sound. Absorption materials are usually made of open materials such as foam, fibres or other materials with an open-cell character.

Sound insulating materials, however, hold back noise. Insulating materials are usually heavy materials with a closed pore structure. Sound insulating noise shield systems consist of a combination of heavy, flexible and absorbing materials that jointly provide effective sound-proofing. This reduces the penetration of noise into a room or the noise emission.
Merford has a wide range of sound insulating materials that are available from stock in many cases and can be cut to size in-house. From ready-made sandwich sheets to insulate the floor or ceiling to combined sheets to insulate sound from a studio. Is pipeline noise a problem? Merford can solve this with flexible insulating material for pipe lagging.

Types of sound-insulating materials:
- Sound insulating noise shield system for walls, ceilings, and floors
- Pipe lagging
- Anti-drumming materials
- Vibration damping materials
- Sound-proof doors
This depends on the situation, your specific requirements and the material to be used. Thanks to its wide product range, Merford has a solution for every situation, whether that’s a standard or a customised solution. We will be happy to discuss the ideal approach for you.
Our experts take the environment into account in all our solutions. Many of the products we use are fundamentally sustainable. They can be re-used, for example, or consist of ecological or recycled materials.

We have FSC® and PEFC™ certificates for many of our sound insulating materials using wood. Thanks to these certificates, you can be sure that the timber comes from sustainably managed forests.
