Hospitals are meant to be spaces of healing, where patients can find solace and rest. However, excessive noise from bustling corridors, medical equipment, or conversations can disrupt their sleep patterns, increase stress levels, and hinder the recovery process.
Noise-reducing doors, such as the innovative Medicare Sound doors, are designed with a special core that absorbs ambient sounds, significantly reducing noise transmission by up to 39 dB. This substantial noise reduction promotes a calm and restful environment conducive to patient well-being and faster recovery.
Noise insulation
Noise insulation refers to the distinction in noise levels between two rooms, and it indicates the ability of a material to obstruct sound transmission. Different terms are used to describe this concept:
Rw-value:
This represents the noise insulation value of the door panel. Measurements are conducted on the door body alone, in a stationary state, without considering the presence of sealing rubbers or door frames. The measurement assesses the difference in noise levels between the two rooms separated by the door. This method aligns with ISO10140-2 standards.
