Insulation – Effective protection against noise and heat loss
The term insulation describes measures to reduce sound, heat, cold or vibrations in buildings, machines or vehicles. Effective sound insulation plays a particularly important role in soundproofing technology in order to minimise noise and improve acoustic comfort.
Why is insulation important?
Good insulation ensures peace and quiet, energy efficiency and comfort. In building acoustics, automotive engineering and machine acoustics, it serves to reduce sound transmission and optimise thermal insulation. Without targeted insulation, vibrations and structure-borne noise can be transmitted unhindered, leading to increased noise pollution, material fatigue and unwanted noise.
Example:
In a machine, the motor can transmit vibrations to the housing. Targeted insulation of the machine housing with heavy foils, such as Cello® EVA, reduces this transmission and thus significantly minimises noise.
Cellofoam offers a wide range of insulation materials specially developed for soundproofing, thermal insulation and vibration damping.
Types of insulation
✔ Sound insulation – Prevents sound transmission between rooms, buildings or components
✔ Sound absorption – Reduces reverberation and ensures pleasant room acoustics
✔ Thermal insulation – Prevents heat loss and increases energy efficiency
✔ Structure-borne sound insulation – dampens vibrations in machines or vehicles
