Acoustic Curtains: Acoustic Solution for Noise Reduction

Acoustic curtains are a sophisticated and versatile acoustic solution specifically designed to
manage unwanted noise in any environment. They function both to reduce the amount of
external noise that enters or exits a room and to actively absorb sound. This dual capability
makes them an excellent choice for achieving effective soundproofing rooms, offices, or other
living spaces.

Key Benefits of Noise Reducing Curtains

Choosing to install noise reducing curtains provides numerous advantages over standard
window treatments. They are a proven and effective solution that also meets global testing
standards.
Key benefits of these specialised treatments include:

  • They decrease the noise coming in from the outside.
  • They improve internal acoustics.
  • They are specifically designed to reduce noise and absorb sound.
  • They are an environmentally friendly option.

For homeowners dealing with noisy neighbours or businesses aiming to reduce distracting
sounds transfer, investing in a functional soundproof curtain or noise blocking curtains
guarantees a significant improvement in the auditory comfort of a space.

Versatile Applications for Sound Deadening Curtains

The unique characteristics of these soundproofing materials mean they are suitable for a wide
array of residential and commercial environments. Using effective noise proof curtains can
transform a space, making it quieter and more functional, which is especially important for any
soundproofing project.

Common applications include:

  • Home: Creating peaceful bedrooms or quiet living areas.
  • Office: Ensuring privacy and reducing distractions in open-plan offices.
  • Conference rooms and Meeting rooms: Improving speech clarity and confidentiality.
  • Theatres and Studios: Essential for sound dampening and acoustic control.

The effectiveness of these acoustic treatments means they can work in conjunction with other
soundproofing materials, such as acoustic panels or wall paneling, to create a comprehensive
acoustic solution.

Features and Acoustic Specifications: How Soundproof Curtains Work

A key question often asked is, how soundproof curtains work? ; They function by using dense,
layered, and often specialised fabrics to interrupt sound transmission. They come with general
features, including the option of a Noise Reduction lining (though this is not available for all
fabrics), multiple fabrics to choose from, and custom sizes available upon request.

For effective sound control, it is essential to review the technical data, particularly if the goal is
to reduce sound affecting an existing wall. Acoustic performance is measured using the Noise
Reduction Coefficient (NRC), Sound Reduction Index ($\Delta R_w$), and Sound Level
Difference ($\Delta D_w$).

For those prioritising the maximum level of sound reduction, the SOUNDLI WOOL offers a
$10\text{dB}$ Sound Level Difference with the lining, making it one of the most effective
sound-insulating curtains available. If sound absorption is the primary goal, the ALBA TEXTURE
functions highly effectively as noise absorbing drapes, boasting a superior NRC of $0.77$.

Fabric and Colour Selection

The available fabric options also vary in composition and style, ensuring you can find suitable
curtains and blinds for any interior design:

  • SOUNDLI WOOL: A $100\%$ wool composition with colours including fawn, flint, ash,
    greystone, jaguar, navy, and burgundy.
  • ALBA TEXTURE: A $100\%$ Recycled Post Consumer polyester available in dove, shore,
    wisp, august, storm, and midnight.
  • WELLINGTON TEXTURE: A $100\%$ polyester fabric in oyster, buff, and silver.
  • RANDWICK TEXTURE: A $100\%$ polyester fabric with colours like pearl, fawn, cinder,
    chrome, dusk, slate, and onyx.
  • NORTHCOTE VELVET: A $100\%$ polyester composition with an extensive palette
  • including snow, chalk, safari, dusty, drift, wasabi, fern, cosmos, artic, copper, shiraz,
    burgundy, slate, atlas, pepper, and panther.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care is vital to maintain the performance of your acoustic insulation. Care instructions
vary based on the fabric:

  • SOUNDLI WOOL requires professional dry cleaning.
  • ALBA TEXTURE can be machine washed below $30$ degrees.
  • WELLINGTON TEXTURE and RANDWICK TEXTURE require a gentle warm hand wash and
    should be dried in the shade.
  • NORTHCOTE VELVET can be machine washed on a cool gentle cycle and dry cleaned
    gently.

These-highly-effective-noise reducing curtains provide a functional, stylish, and essential
acoustic solution for achieving effective soundproofing in any space.
