Global Acoustic Insulation Market: Overview

To prevent the sound from entering or exiting from an enclosed space, a barrier is created between the interior and exterior areas; such a type of soundproofing is called acoustic insulation. Sound can travel from anywhere, so the exact process or the choice of materials to insulate sound varies according to the circumstances. The common approach to acoustic insulation is creating a barrier of some type between the origin from where the sound is being transmitted and the surrounding area. In another case, to insulate the sound from transmitting, panels are installed in the interior walls. The installed panel consists of foam or materials that help in absorbing reverberations, echoing, or other sound transmissions.

Global Acoustic Insulation Market: Segmentation

The acoustic insulation market is segmented into its end-use, product, and regions.

On the basis of the product, the acoustic insulation market is divided into glass wool, foamed plastic, rock wool, polystyrene, and others.

Based on the end-use, the global market is categorized into residential, industrial, automotive, aerospace, building and construction, commercial, transportation, and marine.

The acoustic insulation market is diversified into regions such as Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America, Central America, South America, and the Middle East and Africa.

Recent Development

• In June 2025, Stellex Capital Management announced the acquisition of Dürr Group’s air and noise filtration technology business. The acquired unit, which specializes in industrial noise control, sound insulation systems, and advanced exhaust air purification solutions, is set to operate as an independent entity. This move is expected to strengthen its focus on acoustic insulation, noise abatement, and environmental compliance technologies for industrial applications.
• In September 2024, Armacell announced the accelerated launch of a cutting-edge aerogel technology to support customers following the incident at its Cheonan, South Korea, plant on 7 September 2024. This new product platform significantly expands Armacell’s aerogel-based ArmaGel portfolio, reinforcing the company’s position in the equipment insulation and engineered foams market.
• In February 2024, Saint-Gobain completed its acquisition of International Cellulose Corporation (ICC), a U.S.-based manufacturer of specialty insulation products, including spray-on thermal and acoustical finishing systems. This acquisition expands Saint-Gobain’s insulation portfolio and enhances its Commercial Building and Infrastructure offerings by adding sprayed acoustic insulation capabilities, reinforcing its position in sustainable building solutions.
• In July 2023, Kingspan Group announced the acquisition of a majority stake (approximately 51%) in Steico SE, a German manufacturer of natural and wood-based insulation products. Completed in early 2024, this acquisition expands Kingspan’s portfolio of sustainable building envelope and insulation materials, enhancing its offerings for thermal performance and acoustic comfort in construction applications.
• In July 2022, Rockwool International launched NyRock stone wool insulation in the UK, marketed as the “lowest lambda stone wool insulation available” in the region. Produced using a patented manufacturing process, NyRock achieves a thermal conductivity of 0.032 W/mK, offering superior insulation performance even in thinner sections than comparable products.

Global Acoustic Insulation Market: Growth Factors

Commonly used acoustic insulation material is the rock wool as it provides fire resistance, acoustic and thermal padding, and the installation is also easy. There is a huge demand for rock wool in the developing countries owing to its low cost, thus driving the acoustic insulation market growth. High demand from the transportation sector for acoustic insulation is also triggering the global market growth. EPA has put standards to control the excessive sound generation in transportation, thus the regulations related to the noise control have contributed to the growth of the acoustic insulation market. There is also a huge demand for the acoustic insulation materials in the construction and building sector to insulate the buildings against sounds. The foamed plastics provide better noise barrier, but the high cost is challenging the market growth.
