Soundproofing Concrete Ceilings

To effectively block noise from above, the ideal solution is to soundproof the floor where the impact occurs. However, if you can’t access the floor above, the best solution is to install a soundproof ceiling that creates an insulated gap to absorb vibrations and noise.

For concrete ceilings, we recommend the AcoustiClip Concrete Ceiling System Kit, which provides a complete soundproofing solution. It decouples the new ceiling from the existing structure and introduces sound-dampening mass through a combination of insulation, soundboard panels, and acoustic sealant. This significantly reduces the noise you can hear from above, such as footsteps, TV and conversation noises, and other movement and vibrations.

The best way to reduce sound leakage through a ceiling from the floor above is to use a combination of products in a soundproof system, adding mass, increasing sound absorption, and decoupling the new ceiling structure from the existing one.

We recommend using the AcoustiClip system to soundproof your ceilings. The combination of materials supplied with the AcoustiClip Concrete Ceiling System includes everything you need to effectively insulate the ceiling against both impact and airborne noise.

The best-performing sound insulation system for concrete ceilings is the AcoustiClip Concrete Ceiling System kit. The product combinations supplied with this system achieve a high level of noise reduction against airborne and impact sounds.

Concrete ceilings benefit from the AcoustiClip’s decoupling effect, which helps prevent sound vibrations travelling through the structure. Acoustic insulation, soundproof panels, and dampening compounds all introduce mass and density to absorb and dissipate sound energy. The system is finished with sealant to ensure airtight installation and eliminate sound leaks.

The AcoustiClip Concrete Ceiling System Soundproof Kit also offers minimal ceiling drop, making it a highly effective solution without the need for major structural alteration.

If you are looking to soundproof a concrete ceiling without the need for major structural alterations, a complete system like our AcoustiClip Concrete Ceiling Kit is an effective solution. The kit decouples the new ceiling from the original one, providing excellent acoustic insulation, without the need to remove the existing structure.

Yes. If you’re using downlighters in your ceiling, you should install acoustic/fire hoods over the lights to maintain the acoustic integrity of the ceiling.
