View Article  Noise Resource Library From Sound Service
by Site Monitor on Sat 28 Mar 2009 01:32 PM GMT

With 40 years experience supplying soundproofing & acoustic materials to the Architectural and home refurb market, Sound Service (Oxford) has now launched its online Noise Resource Library.

Consisting of 30 detailed and varied articles on all types of noise problems from noisy washing machines, how to reduce noise at work and current UK noise law, this page is a must read for all noise sufferers.

Many of the articles have been written by Sound Service’s expert technical team and these have increased in volume over the last 4 decades. Stephen Young explains further,
“We don’t believe in withholding information that will help people reduce domestic noise. Our library of articles is growing daily and we work closely with external agencies like the Noise Abatement Society to ensure we have the answers to all types of noise pollution on our website”

by Site Monitor on Thu 01 Jan 2009 01:29 PM GMT
From its humble beginnings supplying car soundproofing in 1969, Sound Service has become one of the best known and respected names for soundproofing materials in the UK.

Based at Crawley Mill in the Cotswold countryside the team of dedicated technical staff ensure you are offered the latest in soundproofing design and innovation and this is partly why they have survived the test of time in a very competitive marketplace.

Architects and designers as well as rival soundproofing companies purchase products from Sound Service as they recognise the quality of materials sold.

In 2008 Sound Service created it's Green Policy and does all it can to reduce it's carbon footprint from manufacture to final delivery to it's customers.

The end of 2008 saw the launch of the company's shopping cart. www.soundproofing-direct.com where customers can now order over 60 % of the main product range with more products being added daily.

When shopping around or thinking of working with a new supplier Sound Service would ask this, Have you been selling your products for 40 years?

View Article  D.I.Y Sustainable Soundproofing For The Environmentally Aware
by Site Monitor on Thu 06 Nov 2008 01:27 PM GMT

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.

With hundreds of soundproofing solutions available in the current market place for commercial and domestic use, we 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 Stephen Young, Office 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.

Our 100% recycled rubber Acousticel wall panel is 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.

What have we achieved so far?
Replaced 50 % of their soundproofing product range with recycled products or products offering a better sustainable index.
Managed to recycle 146,940 rubber car tires which equates to 1,634 tons of rubber with just two products.
