Serenity Glass

Double glazing

Where energy efficiency and acoustics are both required, double glazing can be used to reduce noise. The wider the space between the two sheets of glass, the greater the sound improvement. Sound Transmission Class is a single number rating for glass’s efficiency in reducing noise transmission. Expressed in decibels, the larger the number, the greater the sound reduction.

Thick glass

The further sound must travel through glass, the more likely it is to dampen the sound waves. So thicker glass is often the best for reducing low frequency sounds like traffic and neighbourhood noise.

Laminated glass

Featuring two panes of glass with an interlayer between them, laminated glass dampens more vibrations than single glazed glass. Even though laminated glass is constructed using two panes of glass, it’s virtually indistinguishable from ordinary glass. An acoustic laminate with a special sound dampening interlayer is also available, providing the sound dampening properties of much thicker glass. Laminated glass can be used for security, noise control and UV reduction.
