Frequently asked questions.

What is sound absorption, reflection, scattering, transmission?
Sound behaves in different ways when in contact with surfaces:
- Sound absorption: The material converts part of the sound wave into heat energy.
- Sound reflection: Sound waves are reflected back in the same direction.
- Sound scattering: Sound waves are scattered in different directions.
- Sound transmission: Sound waves pass through a medium.
At Triplacoustics, our products for walls, ceilings and furniture optimise all these sound phenomena, resulting in improved acoustic quality in any room.

What is difference between sound insulation and sound absorption?
Sound insulation prevents sound from travelling from one room to another by using specific techniques and materials. Sound absorption, on the other hand, reduces the amount of reflected sound within a room by using absorbent materials.
Triplacoustics products are ideally suited for sound absorption, not sound insulation. They improve acoustic quality by reducing reverberation and creating a more comfortable sound environment.
