Hanwha Construction announced on the 30th that it has developed the 'EPP+EPS Laminated 60mm Interfloor Sound Insulation Material,' which excels in reducing noise between floors and utilizes eco-friendly materials.

The newly developed sound insulation material not only has excellent noise reduction effects for both lightweight and heavyweight impact sounds but also features an eco-friendly EPP+EPS 60mm laminated structure that is 30mm thicker than existing materials, enhancing heating efficiency during winter.

Additionally, the new material allows for the omission of the foam concrete process previously required when installing 30mm sound insulation materials, which is expected to shorten construction time.

Hanwha Solutions' EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) applied in the sound insulation material is gaining attention as an eco-friendly material. Compared to Styrofoam, it is lighter and stronger, does not easily break under external impact, does not generate microplastics, and has excellent elasticity and resilience. Furthermore, no chemical additives are used in the foaming process of the product, so it does not emit harmful substances such as benzene or dioxins.

Yoon Yong-sang, Head of the Architecture Division at Hanwha Construction, stated, "Hanwha Construction plans to continue applying various eco-friendly building materials on-site as part of its ESG management."
