The units define how loud a noise source is, ranging on a comparative scale from 0. For more information on installation please do contact us. A decibel (dB) is a unit of measurement that gages the intensity of sound.
We recommend that experienced and qualified installers install any sound insulation system. Sound is measured in decibels (dB) by using an instrument called a sound level meter.
It is essential to choose the right insulation and to follow the instructions on installation to achieve the full potential of any acoustic system. Information on noise control and noise regulations in Perth city.

For installation to light stud wall partitions with a plasterboard skin The safe listening time is cut in half for every 3-dB rise in noise levels. To achieve effective wall sound insulation we also recommend installing floor sound insulation or ceiling sound insulation depending on where the sound source is located.
This sound insulation solution is designed using the latest sound insulation technologies and has been tested in a qualified acoustic laboratory in 2015 in accordance with EN ISO 10140 - 2:2010 standard. This system is suitable also for installation onto light partitions (for example stud walls & plasterboard) It uses a combination of sound insulating materials that have a combination of different densities and elasticities, together with a sound absorption layer and vibration mounts to guarantee the best sound reduction results. The sound insulating properties of Decibel Block Systemâ„¢ are between 15 and 24 db depending on the kind of the wall. This system of sound insulating and sound absorbing boards is installed on a parent wall using vibration mounts. Mascoat Sound Control-dB is a flexible, adhesive, environment-friendly coating that bonds directly to a wide range of surfaces. After the watershed passage of the United States Noise Control Act of 1972, other local and state governments passed further regulations. Decibel Block Systemâ„¢ is a sound insulation system for walls, providing the highest level of sound insulation for residential & public premises and industrial buildings. Noise regulation includes statutes or guidelines relating to sound transmission established by national, state or provincial and municipal levels of government.
