Noise pollution is among the environmental factors that cause the most harm to people after air pollution. The “International Noise Awareness Day”, which was first launched in 1996 to raise awareness on noise worldwide, is held on April 28 this year.

In cities with increasing population in today's conditions, we are more exposed to noise pollution with the effect of crowded living spaces and intensifying traffic. Noise, which disrupts our physiological and psychological balance, reduces our work performance, eliminates the pleasantness and calmness of the environment, is defined as an important environmental pollutant consisting of unwanted sounds.
Noise can create effects such as temporary or permanent hearing damage, changes in body activity, increased blood pressure, circulatory disorders, rapid breathing, heart rhythm disturbances, sudden reflexes, behavioral disturbances, anger, boredom, general weakness, decreased work efficiency, concentration impairment, inhibition of movements on people. Our children are also intensely exposed to the negative physiological, cognitive and emotional effects of noise. For all these reasons, we need to take the necessary precautions without ignoring the destructive and permanent effects of noise pollution.
Especially with the Pandemic we are in, we started to spend more time in our homes and the need for "comfort" became more visible to all of us. We have come to think that we need sound insulation as well as heat, water and fire for a healthy, safe and comfortable life. However, when it comes to sound insulation, consumers may mistakenly think that while sound insulation can be made in newly constructed buildings, it is too late for this application in old buildings they live in. Insulation expert Izocam states that it is never too late for sound insulation.

A special bonding mortar is applied to the glass wool surface of the board in 3-5 kg per m². Kalibel plate is lifted and placed on 10 mm wedges, which are placed on the floor, at the bottom of the wall. After leaning against the wall, it is leveled with a rubber hammer and gauge. The boards are supported until the adhesive sets. After the joints are covered with a special net and paste, the application is completed by applying a final coat of paint.
