Soundproofing

When the word “noise” is used, it usually indicates a “disturbing sound”. Prolonged exposure to “disturbing noise” is not only something annoying but can also be damaging.

The definition of “damaging” is any alteration that is irreversible. The definition of “disturbing” is any psycho-physical alteration that is temporary, while “annoying” is defined as the state of discomfort that an individual feels when exposed to noise, along with other factors (psychological, sociological, economic, etc.).

For years, different authorities worldwide have been closely examining this problem. As a result, it is possible to eliminate noise at the source, by applying the science of acoustics and then creating appropriate soundproofing solutions, all the while respecting the laws in force.

To that end, s.i.r.a. has used its decades of experience to protect those who are exposed to damaging noise, as well as to help those who cause that noise by their activity to comply to the limits set out in the law.
