Flanking path
Noise may be transmitted not only directly through the walls or via the air, but also via adjacent building components, e.g. pipes, gaps or hollow spaces in floors or ceilings. These ways of transmission are called flanking paths.
Foam
Foams are man-made materials with low density and a cellular structure. They are produced by foaming synthetic base materials with the aid of blowing agents.

Sound insulation
Sound insulation is the acoustic shielding of a room or device in order to prevent or reduce the transmission of air-borne or solid-borne sound to neighboring spaces. The aim is to prevent the sound from propagating by using sound insulation materials to build a sound barrier around the noise source.
Noise control
Equipping the room with noise control materials reduces the sound level (and hence the perceived noisiness) and improves speech intelligibility. Such an improvement of acoustic conditions makes for a much more pleasant atmosphere. Porous and fibrous materials such as open-cell foams or non-wovens are excellent sound absorbers. But also closed-cell foams with a special cell structure, for instance our soni RESIST, score with good sound absorption capacity.
