Sound Rated Windows

Sound Rated windows are an essential part of building design, providing noise reduction to areas as well as visual access. The STC rating is a measure of how well a window can block sound from passing through it. Sound Rated windows are specifically engineered for noise control. These windows are constructed of multiple layers of glass, with each layer having different thicknesses for increased noise control. There are air gaps between the glass panes, absorbing and dispersing sound. Thicker glass and larger air gaps, provide higher STC ratings.

Sound rated windows play a critical role in reducing sound transmission between different areas within a building. This is very beneficial in Industrial Sound Enclosures, HR and Secure Rooms, Recording Studios where privacy and noise control are important for the continued operation and purpose of the space. With sound rated windows, they not only provide safety for employees being clear, unobstructed view inside the sound controlled space, outside conversations, meetings, and confidential discussions can be conducted without sound escaping, ensuring confidentiality and a safe environment.
