Elastic shielding of buildings

Arnulfpark Munich: excellent quality of life despite difficult building conditions thanks to Sylomer®.

Switch off vibrations and noise

Urbanisation is progressing, good building plots are becoming ever more scarce. As a result, buildings are increasingly being constructed on dynamically loaded land. Sources of disturbance are usually nearby transport routes as a cause of mechanical vibrations. Railway tracks, underground railway lines and tramway lines in particular cause vibrations, noise and noticeable sound in adjacent buildings.

Depending on the type of use as a residential complex, office building or hotel, different requirements for noise protection and vibration protection must therefore be met. This is often a challenge in planning, but at the same time an opportunity for positive value development through the optimal implementation of structural sound control. This is precisely where Getzner comes into the picture. Our customised sound control solutions are individually adapted to the respective requirements.

The materials Sylomer® and Sylodyn® have been specially developed for vibration isolation. They are durable, maintenance-free and are licenced with a national technical approval. They effectively reduce the dynamic loads and therefore provide excellent soundproofing and optimal noise protection. This serves to protect the building structure, improves the living and working environments enormously and therefore increases the level of comfort for those living and working in the building.
