Carla Lane Animals In Need

The Problem

Carla Lane Animals In Need were in a position where they had to satisfy local council planning on soundproofing and acoustically treating the 10 outside kennel runs. The kennels themselves sat in the Lancashire countryside with very little houses around them, but stringent rules around noise breakout were administered to the organisation, which led to them getting in touch with City Insulation.

The Solution

Having carried out an extensive survey on site, a carefully thought out acoustic design was drawn up and presented to the council, which they approved immediately. We subsequently installed a system including Euroforms’ Versapanel, a dense acoustic Rockwool behind the mass, and Stratocell Whisper, with an NRC of 1 to soak up the barking noise as quickly as it’s being made in the kennel runs. Overall, our client is benefitting from a fully moisture proof system that is designed to last a lifetime, and the project was delivered on time and within budget.
