The careful and considered selection of glass can be crucial in helping to reduce noise level and meet noise requirements. How it works. The highest noise insulation is achieved using an acoustic laminated glass. Glass controls noise by: Reflecting the noise back towards the source, and ; Absorbing the noise energy within the glass.

Noise control Specialist glass partitions can be an ideal means to protect areas from noise such as computer games or television. Glass can in effect be equivalent to a brick wall in terms of heat insulation, strength and noise reduction with the added benefit that it will look good either clear or with any of a wide range of Decorative effects.

Pilkington Optiphon™ is a high quality acoustic laminated glass that offers excellent noise reduction without compromising on light transmittance or impact performance.

Specialist noise control glass such as Pilkington Optiphon™ has the ability to dampen and block out low and high frequency sounds thanks to a special polyvinyl butyral (PVB) interlayer ‘sandwiched’ between laminated panes of glass.

Phon is the name for Pilkington's own Insulating Glass Unit (IGU) offering enhanced noise control. Phon is a proven and tested solution to the problem of noise control. Optiphon™ glass – laminated, sound absorbing glass with high acoustic insulation, which uses special foil to yield excellent noise attenuation parameters.

Not every door can accept thick glass to reduce noise so NSG Group make Pilkington Optiphon™ glass that can achieve superior performance whilst keeping the thickness and weight of the glass down. A common mistake when selecting the acoustic performance is to try and reduce ambient noise to zero.

If you make a room too quiet then you begin to listen for other noise sources that you would not have picked up before. Go for a noise level appropriate to the use of the room. No noise is an eerie sensation.

Noise Control Reduces the noise inside a building to acceptable levels without sacrificing daylight. Safety/Security Provides impact or impact and penetration resistance to protect people from accidental injury, deliberate attack and...

offers good acoustic performance for lower noise, proven solution; installed successfully in the UK and the Netherlands and used in Japan for over a decade, offers reduced levels of internal condensation compared to single glazing.

Not every window can accept thick glass to reduce noise so NSG Group make Pilkington Optiphon™ glass that can achieve superior performance whilst keeping the thickness and weight of the glass down. A common mistake when selecting the acoustic performance is to try and reduce ambient noise to zero.
