A revolutionary solution to noise pollution
Håkan Wernersson, a Swedish researcher at Malmö University, has come up with a remarkable invention: the “Sound Screw”, a screw capable of halving noise pollution between apartments. This simple but ingenious innovation could revolutionize the way we deal with noise problems in the home.
Ingenious technology
The special feature of this screw lies in its unique design: featuring a central slot with an integrated spring, it disrupts and absorbs sound waves before they pass through walls.
Used to fasten drywall to wooden beams, this screw significantly reduces noise without requiring major structural modifications to buildings.
Convincing results
Laboratory tests are impressive: a reduction of nine decibels, equivalent to halving perceived noise.
Real-life tests, notably in a hairdressing salon, confirmed these promising results. This performance meets the strict legal requirements for soundproofing buildings.
A double spatial advantage
In addition to its acoustic properties, the screw offers a considerable spatial advantage.
Unlike traditional insulation solutions, which require additional layers of material, it enables partitions to be fixed directly, thus preserving valuable living space, particularly in urban environments.
Future prospects and developments
Interest in this innovation extends beyond Europe’s borders, with companies all over the world, including South America and Japan, investigating its potential.
Although further tests are needed to assess its long-term effectiveness, this solution promises to significantly improve the quality of life in collective housing.
