Sound Insulation

Create your own peaceful retreat

In today’s chaotic world, it is hard to find a place where you can sit and enjoy peace and quiet. Noises from neighbours, traffic, railway lines, industrial units, loudspeakers, pubs and aircraft constantly intrude our lives and hamper the serenity we so desperately desire.

Windows and doors are usually the weakest point of sound insulation in the home and the problem gets worse with traditional windows or doors which have gaps even when closed. The gaps — a result of flaws in design, construction or installation — allow easy passage for noise to just barge in and destroy the tranquillity of a home.

Not so with Fenesta windows and doors, which when closed block out the outside disturbances, creating a comfortable environment to concentrate, enable a peaceful night’s sleep, relax and enhance your quality of life. Below are the features that help Fenesta protect you from your city:

Fusion Welded

Fenesta products are factory made with multi-chambered profiles and fusion welded joints to improve overall sealing

Double Sealing

The multiple point locking systems and double seals ensure casement windows and doors are tightly shut to cut out outside noise

Silicone Sealant

All gaps between the window/door unit and the wall are filled with a special silicone sealant

Laminated Glass

Can also be fitted with Laminated or Double glazed laminated glass that can reduce unwanted noise levels by manifolds

The New Amsterdam theater in New York City was the setting last year for a two-week-long engineering assessment of the distribution and control of Grignard Pure through the theater’s HVAC system. The testing, conducted by Jaros, Baum & Bolles, demonstrated that Grignard Pure, in an aerosolized droplet state, behaves like a gas in occupied space. Courtesy of Grignard Pure
