In developments where noise control is essential for occupant comfort—such as semi-detached homes or apartment buildings—separating walls and floors must comply with specific sound insulation requirements.

There are two routes to demonstrate compliance:

  • Robust Details: Use pre-approved construction details certified by Robust Details Ltd.

  • Sound Insulation Testing: Conduct on-site testing to verify performance.

At AFM, our Technicians are trained to Institute of Acoustics standards and perform both airborne and impact sound insulation testing in line with ISO 140-4 and ISO 140-7 procedures.

Our goal is to help contractors meet regulatory sound insulation standards on the first attempt, delivering solutions that are both reliable and cost-effective.
