How noise-reduction glazing enhances interior glass partitions

There are so many advantages to interior glass partitions. We’ve talked about many of them! Like how they make rooms feel and look larger. They let in natural light, which helps reduce energy costs from lighting and heating when sunlight can take over. It also boosts mood which increases happiness and productivity. We could go on and on!

But there’s another important advantage we wanted to share with you today and that’s noise reduction. Glass partitions can be designed to reduce noise. The effect enhances privacy and helps improve focus. This makes them indispensable as glass dividers for offices and glass workstations.

Some people worry that glass walls won’t be enough to stop sound. They likely have that impression from being able to hear outdoor sounds through the windows in their home. But that’s a different kind of glass altogether. Glass partitions are made from thick, strong, tempered glass, which can have varying levels of sound proofing factored in.

For instance, for light soundproofing, one only needs thicker panels of glass. This is a great way to reduce levels of sound for comfort. For more moderate damping, doubling or tripling the panes would work. Interlayers of plastic can also be added between the panes to help further reduce sound vibrations. Additionally, the outside of a glass partition can be texturised or frosted to further reflect sounds or absorb sound waves.

So, glass partitions engineered with noise-reduction glazing improve comfort, productivity, privacy and focus. That’s in addition to letting in natural light, reducing energy bills, boosting spirits and adding spacious beauty and elegance. They are perfect as glass dividers for offices and glass workstations, home offices, studios, even commercial gyms. Check out our project gallery here!
