Block up to 50dB of traffic, sirens, and city noise with our 10.8mm specialist acoustic glazing. Tailored for London's period homes.
Get Your Peace BackEngineering Acoustic Perfection
Why 10.8mm Acoustic Laminate Changes Everything
10.8mm Acoustic Laminate Glass
Our 10.8mm acoustic laminate glass is engineered from two sheets of glass bonded to a specialised PVB acoustic interlayer. This triple-layer construction dramatically increases mass per square metre — the single most important factor in blocking low-frequency rumble.
100–150mm Decoupled Air Cavity
Our installations maintain a 100mm to 150mm gap between the original window and the secondary pane — validated by acoustic engineers as the "sweet spot" for residential sound insulation.
Twin-Compression Acoustic Seals
Every secondary glazing panel features dual-durometer EPDM rubber gaskets that compress against the frame on both sides, creating an airtight perimeter with no flanking paths for noise.
Living in London's most prestigious areas shouldn't mean sacrificing peace and quiet. Traffic noise, construction, and urban activity can make homes uncomfortable and reduce property value. Traditional solutions like double glazing often aren't possible in listed buildings or conservation areas.
That's where soundproof secondary glazing excels—providing up to 54dB noise reduction with our 10.8mm acoustic glass, without altering your original windows. Our specialist secondary glazing noise reduction solutions are approved for heritage properties and deliver immediate acoustic improvements. Whether you're in a Georgian townhouse in Kensington or a Victorian terrace in Richmond, we help restore peace to your home.
Unlike general glazing companies that offer soundproofing as an afterthought, we do nothing but acoustic secondary glazing—every day, in every London borough. Our 10.8mm laminated acoustic glass and precision-engineered air gaps achieve independently verified 54dB reduction, outperforming double glazing by over 20dB.
From Kensington's Cromwell Road to Richmond's Heathrow flight path, we've completed over 200 heritage installations with a 100% conservation officer approval rate. Every project includes a free professional acoustic survey, bespoke design, and our comprehensive 25-year warranty.
