Improve Sound Absorption and Sound Insulation Performance using Lignacite blocks

October 2018

Lignacite have established a reputation for their extensive range of high quality commodity and architectural facing masonry blocks capable of improving acoustic, sound absorption and sound insulation values.

Sound absorption is an extremely effective method of lessening the echo and noise within a space, room or building. Products designed to absorb sound are normally made from soft materials which act to soak up noise as it hits the surface.

However certain blocks manufactured by Lignacite perform considerably better than would be expected for a denser material.
