Noise Control
Why Sound Proofing? Noise is everywhere, and under estimating exposure to too much noise can cause irritability, loss of concentration, loss of productivity and even hearing loss. Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) occurs when exposure to noise at various loudness levels over an extended period of time. Noise travels in waves, and when sound encounters a solid object, it can bounce back and form an echo. This is called reverberations, and often markedly exacerbates an already noisy environment.

Maximum Performance Noise Control - Contain and Absorb Noise
Goff's offers several different noise control products, which are economical, high performance, and designed to meet your noise abatement needs.
Our NCC-QQ hanging acoustic curtains are available in heights up to 25' and hang from our standard curtain track and roller system
Our PAS "Portable Acoustic Screens" easily move and reconfigure instantly, creating work cells to contain noise. The PAS model is available in panels 54" wide by heights up to 12' and attach to our own 1 3/16" square aluminum freestanding frame.
Both types of the above sound barriers are available in barium loaded vinyl/fiberglass quilting or vinyl coated fiberglass quilting only.
