Many people do not realize that a properly installed EPS Cement Sandwich Panel also delivers surprisingly good sound insulation performance alongside its primary thermal insulation benefits. The combination of the dense, rigid cement facings and the closed cell EPS foam core creates a wall structure that effectively blocks the transmission of common everyday outdoor noise such as traffic sounds, nearby construction noise, and general neighborhood activity. This sound dampening effect is much better than what you would get from a thin single layer metal wall or an uninsulated lightweight partition. For residential projects located near busy roads, or for office buildings that need to separate different work zones, the EPS Cement Sandwich Panel can help create much quieter, more comfortable indoor environments for occupants. The level of sound insulation will naturally increase as you select a thicker EPS Cement Sandwich Panel, because the extra mass of the thicker cement layers and the deeper foam core create more barriers for sound waves to pass through. While the EPS Cement Sandwich Panel may not deliver the extreme high performance sound insulation of specialized acoustic wall systems, it provides more than enough sound reduction for the vast majority of standard residential, commercial, and industrial building applications.
