ACOUSTICAL FINISHES & THERMAL SPRAY

Modern architecture loves open plenums and exposed decks, but without treatment, these spaces become echo chambers. CR Insulation provides premium spray-applied acoustical treatments that control reverberation while providing thermal value and condensation control.

 

We are certified installers of industry-leading products like International Cellulose’s K-13 and SonaSpray “fc”. Whether you need a rugged thermal barrier for a parking garage or a refined, visually seamless finish for an open-office lobby, our teams deliver high-performance results that meet specific Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) requirements.

CORE INSTALLATION CAPABILITIES

Industrial & Parking (K-13):

  • K-13 Standard: The industry standard for parking structures, warehouses, and gymnasiums. Provides robust thermal (R-value) and acoustical control.
  • Condensation Control: Spray application effectively prevents condensation buildup on metal decks and concrete slabs.
  • Black-Out Applications: “Theater Black” applications for cinemas, stages, and exposed ceilings requiring a hidden look.

 

Architectural & Design (SonaSpray):

  • SonaSpray “fc” (Flat Ceiling): A refined, low-texture finish designed for high-visibility spaces like offices, schools, and lobbies.
  • Custom Color Matching: Ability to match specific Pantone colors to integrate the ceiling into the interior design palette.
  • SonaKrete: The smoothest texture available for historic renovations and plaster-like finishes.

 

Specialty Applications:

  • Thermal Barrier Sprays: Monoglass and mineral fiber sprays for pure thermal performance in difficult-to-reach cavities.
  • Intumescent Coatings: Fire-protective paints for structural steel (often packaged with spray scopes).

NRC RATINGS & SITE PROTECTION

Acoustical spray is a finish trade. We treat your job site with the same care as a painter, ensuring extensive masking and protection of lighting, HVAC, and fire sprinklers before the gun is ever triggered.

 

  • NRC Verification: Ensuring the applied thickness meets the specified Noise Reduction Coefficient (typically 0.75 to 1.00+).
  • Adhesion & Bonding: Substrate preparation to prevent delamination or “fall-off” over time.
  • Greenguard Gold Certified: Utilizing low-VOC materials suitable for schools and healthcare environments (LEED compliant).
  • Consistent Texture: Experienced nozzle operators ensuring a uniform, monolithic appearance without clumping or shadowing.
  • Overspray Management: Strict masking protocols to protect adjacent finishes, polished concrete, and glazing.

Don’t let poor acoustics ruin a beautiful design. CR Insulation combines the speed of spray application with the precision of a finish carpenter. Contact us today to review your acoustical targets and color requirements.
