Sound pressure is measured in a unit called decibels and is often abbreviated dB. Zero decibels is the lowest sound a person can hear. • A pin drop is
• 10 dB • A shower is
• 70 dB • A squeeze toy is
• 90 dB Each ten decibel increment means the harm to you is amplified ten times. Noise of 85 dB is considered harmful to a person's ears, and protection is recommended to prevent damage to the eardrum, according to OSHA Standards. A person may not realize this since the ear begins to hurt at about 120 decibels.

ABSORBERSSound absorbers are soft, porous, open-celled materials such as Baffles or Quilted Fiberglass blankets that reduce the reflection of sound waves by allowing them to soak in and dissipate.

BARRIERSNoise Barriers combine mass, flexibility and limpness to block noise from transmitting from one area to another. Barriers are available either non-reinforced or reinforced.
Barriers are available in various densities

COMPOSITESAcoustical curtain panels combine both Noise Barrier & Sound Absorber materials. Typically, they offer the maximum Noise Reduction per dollar spent…up to a 22 dB(A) noise reduction
There are typically two common types of acoustical curtain panels:

BARRIER BACKED COMPOSITEA reinforced loaded vinyl noise barrier with a quilted fiberglassabsorber on one side. Superior acoustical performance and maximum durability. Curtain panels are constructed with grommets across the top and Velcro along the vertical edges.

BARRIER SEPTUM COMPOSITEA non-reinforced loaded vinyl noise barrier sandwiched between two layers of quilted fiberglass. Use for sound absorption on both sides of product, or as a decoupled/barrier/absorber acoustical liner. Curtain panels are constructed with grommets across the top and Velcro along the vertical edges.

LAG TREATMENTUsed to wrap noisy pipes and ducts to block the noise that transmits through the walls of the pipe or duct as air or other contents move through it.
