Densely populated commercial and residential areas have increased noise levels to the point where design criteria mandates sound reduction as a design goal. Since ordinary glass does little to reduce sound transmission into a building's interior, laminated glass made with Saflex interlayer is the solution of choice.
The sound dampening characteristics of laminated glass reduces common irritating noises caused by disruptive traffic, jet aircraft, trains, lawn and industrial equipment, not to mention noisy neighbors. Since laminated glass made with Saflex interlayer acts as a filter that disrupts sound waves before they can pass through the glass, irritating outside noise is reduced by up to 50%. Thus, these interlayers are commonly used in applications in and near airports and surrounding structures, hotels, sports stadiums, train stations, high-rises and educational facilities.
Saflex has a broad range of acoustical interlayer solutions to achieve acoustical design goals. Through the use of Saflex interlayer, there is no need to increase the overall thickness of the glass or the air space to achieve the desired level of performance. Additionally, visual clarity and optical quality are not sacrificed to achieve this superior performance.
