Acoustic performance is an increasingly important functional requirement for good building design. Whether it is reducing noise levels within a factory environment or eliminating nuisance from sound in residential areas, acoustic control is a significant aspect of steel cladding design.

Trisobuild® sound reduction systems

This type of system relies on the mass of the materials and damping control.  We have a large library of test data and can predict noise reduction performance of systems to the needs of your project.  Please contact our Technical Team for further advice.

Trisobuild SA systems

Trisobuild® SA1 and SA2 systems are tested assemblies that provide excellent sound absorption. Both systems use the RL32 as their liner profile with the SA1 being trough perforated and the SA2 being fully perforated. The troughs of the liner can either be left unfilled or stone wool trough fillers can be used to enhance the performance. 

To enable simple comparison between products acoustic materials are classed on a scale from A to E, with A-rated products having the highest rated sound absorption performance.  Our Trisobuild systems offer a performance range between C and A and can be specified for the needs of your building. Please contact our Technical Team for further advice.

All our products are fully tested by third parties for criteria such as thermal performance, fire safety, acoustic performance, air-tightness, and resistance to water penetration. This together with our extensive and unbiased technical support sets us apart.

All Trisobuild^® roof systems can be covered under our Platinum^® Plus system guarantee. Simply fill in your project details using our easy-to-use online specification tool or contact us directly.

All Trisobuild^® components are easily handled on site without specialist mechanical equipment, due to lightweight components. This can be important when working on sites with limited access.

Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) approval to LPS 1181 part 1 for fire performance, helps to lower insurance premiums.

All Trisobuild^® roof systems when finished in Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra^® or Colorcoat Prisma^® will achieve a B_ROOF(t4) in accordance with EN 1187 and satisfy Building Regulations in relation to fire.

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is available for all the Trisobuild® roof system solutions. Request a bespoke product or system specific EN 15804 Type III EPD to help accrue points under building certification schemes such as LEED and BREEAM.

The launch of Optemis Carbon Lite is an important step in our ongoing decarbonisation journey. It demonstrates our progress and represents a unique solution for customers in the form of a flexible, lower CO₂ steel offering.

Optemis Carbon Lite is a fully certified in-setting scheme with CO₂ savings achieved from implemented projects, verified by a 3rd party auditor, DNV, and credited to our CO2 bank.  Our continued commitment to decarbonisation means reductions in CO₂ emissions can now be passed on to our customers, enabling them to achieve immediate Scope 3 emission savings.

Revenues generated from the sale of Optemis Carbon Lite declarations are used to fund additional decarbonisation projects, generating further CO₂ savings to be verified by DNV and speeding up our decarbonisation efforts.

By buying Optemis Carbon Lite from Tata Steel UK we, and our customers, will be actively contributing to a reduction in atmospheric CO₂.
