Acoustic cladding is a facade system specially designed to reduce noise transmission between the interior and exterior of a building. Unlike conventional cladding, it incorporates absorbent and insulating materials that can significantly attenuate sound waves.

It is generally composed of:

• a resistant outer shell (steel, aluminum, etc.),

• an absorbent core (mineral wool, high-density rock wool),

• an interior lining that is perforated or specifically designed to promote sound absorption.

Why install acoustic cladding on a building?

Acoustic cladding addresses several major challenges:

Noise reduction

It limits the spread of noise to the outside and complies with the thresholds imposed by regulations.

Regulatory compliance

Industrial sites are subject to strict environmental noise standards. Acoustic cladding helps to ensure compliance.

Improved comfort

It improves working conditions for employees and reduces noise impact on neighboring areas.

How does acoustic cladding work?

The principle is based on two complementary actions:

• Sound absorption: porous materials capture sound waves and limit their reflection.

• Sound insulation: the mass of the system prevents noise from passing through the facade.

Performance is measured in terms of sound attenuation (dB) and absorption coefficient (αw).

Acoustic cladding vs. conventional sound insulation

Unlike interior insulation, acoustic cladding acts at the source of the noise, directly on the building envelope.
It is more effective for:

• industrial noise,

• continuous noise emissions,

• the exposed buildings.
