What You Need To Know about soundproofing.

Soundproofing - Calgary, Soundproofing - Edmonton — The absorption performance of the two-inch thick ceiling panel is remarkable when compared to two-inch urethane foam. Unlike foam panels that have virtually no effect in the lower mid-range where the human voice tends to sound what we tend to call it in the industry "boomy," our ceiling panels will deliver 90% efficiency.
The added benefits of suspending our 3Gen Ceiling panels to create an air space behind the panel are remarkable. Suspended a couple inches below the ceiling the sound not only penetrates the front face of the cloud, but as sound echoes off the room walls, some of it will be absorbed by the back side too. This simple trick of exposing more surface area can double the performance of an acoustic cloud.
The overall low frequency absorption performance is further augmented by the air-space behind the panel. The air space behind panel acts like a bass trap, effectively increasing the low frequency absorption.

Handcrafted 3Gen Wall Panels

3Gen wall panels are made from high density 6lb glass wool while most foam panels are made using low density 1.3lb urethane. Because most of the foam is cut away to create an artistic pattern, the density of the foam is further reduced due to the huge air gaps that have been cut away. Most foam ends up with a density that barely reaches 1lb per cubic foot. With only 1/6th the density of a our wall panel, it is no wonder that urethane foam is unable to absorb bass.

If we take this a step further and superimpose the voice energy on top of the acoustic panels, we can clearly see that the wall panel will provide 95% absorption down to 300Hz while the foam panel will only absorb 38%.
