Data centers are inherently noisy environments, and without effective abatement solutions, sound transmission can extend far beyond the building envelope. Cooling and airflow systems, IT equipment, energy-producing turbines, and more can create internal sound levels reaching up to 96 A-weighted decibels (dBA), a threshold that adversely affects on-site staff and can also be disruptive to nearby communities and wildlife.

Construction Specialties offers a portfolio of precision-engineered acoustic louvers and screens that are ASTM E90 rated to effectively block airborne sound transmission while maintaining proper airflow, making them ideal for establishing acoustic barriers around critical equipment. Designed around a durable, yet lightweight aluminum frame, acoustic louvers offer a flexible, modular design that can be mounted as an exterior or interior noise boundary. They can integrate into the building facade or be installed as freestanding screens on rooftops or equipment pads.
