A-weighting – The standard method for measuring sound levels

A-weighting dB(A) is a standardised method for measuring and evaluating sound levels that mimics human hearing. Since our hearing is more sensitive to mid-range frequencies than to very high or very low tones, the frequency range is adjusted accordingly in A-weighted sound pressure measurements.

A-weighting is the most common sound evaluation method and is used in particular in the fields of noise protection, room acoustics, environmental measurements and occupational noise guidelines.

Sound insulation & A-weighting – solutions from Cellofoam

To reduce the A-weighted sound pressure level, Cellofoam offers high-quality sound insulation solutions that are specifically optimised for dB(A) measurement:

✔ Acoustic foams & sound insulation panels – Highly effective materials for noise reduction in interior spaces

✔ Heavy foils & absorber combinations – Effective sound insulation for machines, vehicles & building technology

✔ Individual noise protection solutions – Tailor-made products for industry, construction & traffic noise protection

Conclusion

The A-weighting is the standard for noise measurements to realistically evaluate sounds according to human hearing perception. With effective sound insulation solutions from Cellofoam, A-weighted sound pressure levels can be specifically reduced and noise emissions minimised.
