Understanding Soundproofing Windows
Every city has its rhythm - the hum of traffic, the occasional siren, and the chatter of pedestrians. While these sounds are an intrinsic part of urban life, they can become intrusive when they invade your personal space. This is where soundproofed windows come into play.
Soundproof windows like Magnetite’s Soundtite Secondary window are engineered to be a barrier against urban noise. Magnetite’s innovation lies in its ability to double-glaze existing windows and doors, cutting down up to 70% of the noise through the existing window. Through advanced materials and strategic placement, they create a buffer zone between your living space and the bustling outside environment. This zone absorbs and dampens sound waves, significantly reducing the volume of external noise.
Soundtite’s aluminium frame is carefully installed on the interior of existing windows or doors, creating an optimal air gap that functions as an effective noise barrier. The integration of acoustic seals around the Soundtite panels further aides in noise reduction. The frame can be powder-coated to harmonise with your existing windows or doors, preserving the aesthetics of your home. Additionally, Magnetite offers acoustic glass in varying thicknesses—6.38mm, 6.52mm, or 10.38mm—allowing you to tailor noise reduction to your specific needs.

Real Stories, Real Impact
Quiet Amidst Chaos
Sydney Airport, Australia's busiest, sees an average of 850 daily flights. Magnetite upgraded Sydney Airport Services' existing aluminium windows, a project managed by Intermain in collaboration with Design Inc. The challenge was to enhance comfort by reducing noise and heat from the west-facing windows. Magnetite's Soundtite secondary aluminium system, equipped with 6.38mm thick laminated glass, successfully achieved this without structural alterations. The frame's colour was carefully matched to ensure a seamless visual integration.
Consistency Confirmed
Tom was already acquainted with Magnetite's effectiveness from his previous home. When he moved to a retirement unit on a busy road, his faith in Soundtite remained steadfast. Following its installation, the external noise was virtually non-existent. Tom's story reinforces Soundtite's consistent high-quality performance, ensuring serene environments regardless of the surrounding noise.
