Acoustic insulation refers to a process in which a method of soundproofing aims to block sound from entering or leaving a closed location by putting some sort of barrier between the interior and exterior. The acoustic insulation creates a barrier between the interior and exterior areas of the wall and prevents noise from entering and exiting from the area. These insulation materials are also used as heat resistance in industries.  The main types of acoustic insulation products are mineral wool, glass wool, polymeric foams, and natural. Mineral wool-based acoustic insulation products are made from stone with non-directional fibre orientation and higher intensity, with the potential to control sound waves and dampen vibrations. Mineral wool insulation is widely used in the construction and pipe industries. Major end-user industries of acoustic insulation products include building and construction, transportation, oil and gas, energy and utilities, and industrial and OEM. The acoustic insulation research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides acoustic insulation statistics, including acoustic insulation industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with acoustic insulation shares, detailed acoustic insulation segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the acoustic insulation industry. This acoustic insulation research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry. The global acoustic insulation market size grew from $13.31 billion in 2022 to $14.35 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The acoustic insulation market size is expected to grow to $19.26 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 7.6%. The increase in awareness regarding noise pollution is contributing to the growth of the acoustic insulation market. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines noise pollution as any sound that is above 65 decibels (dB). Also, noise becomes harmful as it exceeds 75 decibels (dB) and is painful above 120 decibels (dB). Major reasons for noise pollution are traffic noise, noise at construction sites, rapid industrialization, etc. Moreover, due to rapid urbanization, most of the population is exposed to noise pollution, and consumers and corporates are increasingly investing in soundproofing or acoustic insulation products to reduce the sound levels inside homes and office facilities. Acoustic insulation reduces external noise and helps in reducing sound transmission and vibration. According to the European Environmental Agency, 20% of the population lives in areas where noise levels are considered to be harmful. The rise in noise pollution forced companies to develop solutions for buildings with soundproof walls, and acoustic insulation proved a better method of soundproofing. Thus, increasing awareness of noise pollution propels the growth of the acoustic insulation market. The key players in the acoustic insulation market are focusing on developing innovative products with advanced technologies with greater efficiency to limit the sound between the rooms. For instance, in June 2019, Knauf Insulation, a Belgium-based manufacturer of insulation products, launched a new acoustic batt at the African Construction Expo.
