We sell a variety of brands, including Knauf, Isover, and Siniat. Acoustic insulation is the ideal solution if you require insulation with noise-reduction properties. Installing acoustic insulation could keep your home warmer, reduce noise pollution, enhance comfort, and improve privacy. At Trade Insulations, we offer trade prices so that you can save on your acoustic insulation.

Sound Insulation

Sound insulation is another term for acoustic insulation. The purpose of sound insulation is to minimise sound disturbances whilst providing thermal qualities. Acoustic insulation is designed to block, absorb or isolate sound. Installing sound insulation also helps a building comply with relevant UK building regulations. Various types of sound insulation are better suited to prevent different types of sound transmission.

High-density mineral wool could be ideal for airborne noise like conversations or music. For impact noise, soundproof floor insulation can help to minimise footsteps or vibrations. Soundproof insulation for flooring works by effectively absorbing the sound.
By combining different acoustic insulation products, you can maximise your soundproofing performance. Therefore, you can create a more peaceful indoor environment.

On our product pages, you will find a breakdown of technical specifications and manufacturer data sheets to help keep you informed before purchasing. If you are unsure of what you need precisely, we recommend speaking to a building professional or architect who can advise you further. We recommend doing this as every project is different and would need bespoke guidance.

Below, you can find a breakdown of the different types of acoustic insulation products on our website.

Acoustic Insulation Rolls

Acoustic rolls are very popular because they are lightweight yet easy to install. Acoustic insulation rolls consist of materials such as mineral wool. Mineral wool is ideal as it has thermal properties and can absorb sound and minimise reverberation. Sound insulation rolls are suitable for new build properties, renovations or refurbishments. You can install sound insulation rolls in many settings, such as homes, schools, offices, and other noise-sensitive environments.
There are many benefits to using acoustic insulation rolls, which include:

• Excellent thermal properties - improving energy efficiency
• Great sound absorption - reducing airborne sound
• Easy to install - lightweight and flexible
• Fire resistance - many acoustic rolls have fire resistant properties

Acoustic insulation rolls are suitable for installation in partition walls to reduce room noise transmission. They can also be used in both ceilings and floors, reducing impact noise such as movement. In addition to this, you can use acoustic insulation rolls in timber and metal stud walls.

You can find acoustic insulation rolls from popular brands such as Knauf or Isover on our website.

Sound insulation for walls

Sound insulation for walls is perfect for reducing noise transfer between rooms. Many soundproof insulation products fall under the category of sound insulation for walls. These include acoustic slabs, rolls, and soundproof plasterboard.

You can use acoustic slabs in partitions, stud walls, and party walls. They provide excellent sound insulation for walls and are easy to fit.

Acoustic rolls are another sound insulation used in walls. Sound insulation rolls can dampen sound and provide additional thermal efficiency, making them a great option.

Lastly, on our website, we also sell acoustic plasterboard. These are also known as sound wall boards or soundproof panels. These are ideal for walls that require extra noise reduction. These are also known as sound proof plasterboard and more details can be found below.

Sound proof plasterboard

Soundproof plasterboard is an excellent solution for reducing sound transmission in a building. You can find sound proofing plasterboard in homes, offices and other commercial buildings such as cinemas. The board's design helps to minimise airborne sounds, such as voices, music or television noise.
Soundproof plasterboard tends to be more dense than standard plasterboard to achieve acoustic protection. A typical soundproof plasterboard features additional sound-dampening materials like gypsum, reinforced with additives such as viscoelastic polymers. The acoustic materials used in these boards help to absorb sound waves.

Regarding insulation properties in acoustic plasterboard, the thermal conductivity may vary. For example, Knauf Soundshield Plus achieves a thermal conductivity of 0.24W/mK. You can find our product's full technical attributes on our product pages as well as manufacturer data sheets.

Acoustic insulation slab

You can find a whole range of acoustic insulation slab products on our website, such as Rockwool RWA45 slabs. People use acoustic insulation slabs in a variety of settings and applications. These include partition walls, suspended ceilings and floor spaces. They are easy to install and fit between timber or metal stud walls, ceilings and floors.

A typical acoustic insulation slab consists of mineral wool. Mineral wool is the perfect material as it can help trap sound waves in its dense fibrous structure. The acoustic and insulative properties make it an ideal choice for soundproofing walls, ceilings and floors. In addition, mineral wool acoustic slabs have great fire-resistant qualities and moisture and rot-resistant properties.
