features and benefits of Sonatherm acoustic thermal insulation
- Suitable for thermal acoustic sound insulation. Reconstruction of a building may necessitate the removal of the SonaSpray and mineral wool slabs components of Sonatherm. The SonaSpray component can be recycled or disposed of as a non-special waste to landfill.
- Sonatherm acoustic thermal insulation is Building Regulations (E&W) Approved Document E compliant.
- Thermal insulation with reverberation noise reduction.
- Spray applied, one coat, decorative, thermal insulation finish with foil-faced mineral wool slabs substrate.
- Seamless monolithic ceiling.
Sonatherm
technical specifications
- Acoustic thermal insulation suitable for application to most surfaces or constructions and is suitable for basement car parks, cantilever buildings and balconies.
- The acoustic thermal insulation system can also be used for the soffits of walkways, underpasses and balconies.
- In any area where it is protected from direct rain.

B-s1,d0 & Class 0 to BS476 – significantly betters the requirements of the new Approved Document B providing little to no smoke and absolutely no droplets, assisting in the safe escape of occupants.
Various decorative and seamless sprayed coating.
Made-to-measure.
Excellent acoustics achieved without design compromise.
Cellulose fibres, fully recycled, low embodied energy, low C02. Can effectively lower the carbon footprint of a building project by sequestering rich stores of carbon for the life of the structure or application.

Local repairs of small areas are performed by hand. A wall or a ceiling can be entirely over sprayed in the same or a different colour. It is also possible to spray with a water based paint – please contact our Oscar Acoustics technical department for further details.
Dust can be removed by blowing with an air pressure gun or by vacuuming with a soft brush attachment.

There is a choice of finish for the sprayed-on Sonatherm layer:
- SonaSpray K-13 standard coarse
- SonaSpray K-13 special medium
- SonaSpray fc medium / fine
SonaSpray K-13 special is available as standard in colours: Light grey, beige, off white and black (blues and greens often available as standard).
Sonaspray fc is available in white as standard.
Almost any colour is possible if the size of the project warrants this option.
other acoustic thermal insulation applications
Sonatherm thermal acoustic insulation can also be used for the soffits of walkways, underpasses and balconies. In any area where it is protected from direct rain, architects can employ the insulating and acoustic properties of Sonatherm to the full.
