Acoustic Insulation

Noise is un­healthy. Not just for people, but also for struc­tures as a res­ult of vibration. KAEFER of­fers in­nov­at­ive and tailored solutions to deal with noise effectively and ef­fi­ciently.

It all starts with meas­ure­ment. Our engineers ana­lyse noise levels and origins with state-of-the-art equip­ment and develop noise pro­tec­tion meas­ures that are tailored ex­actly and individually to each fa­cil­ity or building. These are tested and developed in our own acoustic laboratory, which fea­tures a wall test stand as well as a pipe insulation test facility. That means we can offer high-quality, customised sound absorbers, acoustic enclosures, acous­tic screens as well as pipe and ves­sel insulation combined with thermal requirements to our cli­ents.

For ex­ample, in ships and off­shore facilities, our Cor­por­ate Operations Excellence – Tech­nical Excellence & Support Acoustics team makes complete predictions of noise and vibration levels on the basis of lay­outs and architectural designs. They de­velop customised noise pro­tec­tion meas­ures such as linings, sus­pen­ded ceil­ings, float­ing or elastic floors and silencers. These can be combined with fire protection or thermal insulation and ful­fil all international standards and requirements.

Re­gard­less of whether it’s about reducing noise or op­tim­ising acous­tics and absorbing sounds in ships and offshore fa­cil­it­ies, in­dus­trial plants, rooms or buildings, KAEFER has the theoretical and prac­tical ex­pert­ise to make it happen effectively and cost-efficiently.
