Noise control and noise reduction are both soundproofing concepts. Noise reduction or noise control is a process that essentially blocks the transmission of sound waves through walls, ceilings, and floors. Noise control is achieved by the use of barriers, dampeners and suspension devices or insulators that isolate the final drywall from the existing wallboard and support structure. Noise control or noise reduction can also be accomplished through sound absorption materials such as the closed cell foam mat. Noise reduction in today's society is absolutely essential for maintaining our sanity in the hustle and bustle of a very noisy world. Noise reduction procedures are used extensively in residential, commercial and industrial applications. Noise reduction is not necessarily confined to soundproofing. Hard reflective surfaces in a room can warrant the use of noise reduction products in order to stop the bounce and reflection of sound in a given area by increasing the softness of the acoustics in that particular space. Noise reduction as well as noise control and fast becoming integral parts of today's society. No longer do we live in a 5 bedroom ranch house in the country, but instead we reside in a 1 bedroom flat in New York directly under a bar or nite club.
