We’re all becoming more
environmentally aware with eco-friendly versions of
everything from light bulbs to wall paint. But, when
it comes to the very fabric of your home, it’s often
too late and too expensive to opt for green building
materials, right? Wrong says soundproofing and sound
absorption specialists, Sound Service (Oxford) Ltd.
With hundreds of soundproofing solutions available
in the current market place for commercial and
domestic use, Sound Service (Oxford) Ltd manufacture
from sustainable materials such as recycled rubber
where possible.
“Very often, homeowners and tenants want to do their
bit for the environment but can’t find a way that
fits in with their budget and domestic
requirements,” said Tom Sykes, Development Manager.
“Even in new builds, it’s hard to incorporate
eco-friendly materials into things such as walls and
floors. But with our range of recycled soundproofing
solutions, practical home improvement is both
affordable and socially responsible.”
According to World Health statistics, half of the UK
population is currently being exposed to more than
the recommend levels of noise pollution, making
soundproofing materials an excellent starting point
for those wanting to go green in their home.
Noise pollution doesn’t just come from noisy
industrial equipment, airplanes and trains but from
everyday activities such as loud music, shouting,
home improvements and cars. Soundproofing equipment
can stop this noise seeping out into the surrounding
environment, reducing noise pollution levels.
Even noisy neighbours can be given the green
treatment with a 100% recycled rubber Acousticel
wall panel. Designed to upgrade the sound insulation
properties of party walls in
the home and all types of domestic properties, the
rubber mats are an environmentally friendly way to
insulate a noisy neighbour with a minimum loss of
room space.
In addition to sourcing suppliers committed to a
more sustainable manufacturing process, Sound
Service (Oxford) Ltd are implementing a green office
policy, making more use of recycled products.
