Block out traffic, construction, airports and neighborhood noise with Seemray's soundproof glass technology — laminated and triple-pane glass, STC-rated for real noise reduction. It's not a separate product line; it's a technology built into every Seemray window and door, from Tilt-and-Turn Windows to Entry Doors, custom-made to your exact opening.
Multi-layer glass — laminated PVB interlayers and multi-pane configurations absorb sound vibrations before they reach indoors.
Gas-filled cavities — argon and krypton fills between panes are denser than air, blocking a wider range of frequencies, including low-frequency rumble.
Sealed, reinforced frames — acoustic gaskets and tight seals close the gaps where sound most often leaks through.

For reference, a standard window without acoustic upgrades rates around STC 26–28. Ratings of 35 and above provide noticeably quieter results; 45+ handles heavy traffic, airports, and construction noise.
Q: Do soundproof windows really work?
A: Yes — high-quality soundproof glass, properly installed, significantly reduces loud noises like traffic, construction, or aircraft. Very low-frequency sound may still be faintly audible, and effectiveness depends on glass configuration, frame sealing and installation quality.
Q: What STC rating do I need to block outside noise?
A: A standard window rates around STC 26–28. Our laminated double-pane package reaches STC 35–40, and our Global80™ triple-pane package reaches STC 40–45 or higher — see the table above for the full range.
Q: How much does soundproofing cost?
A: Soundproofing is an upgrade available on any Seemray window or door, typically adding $150–$400 to the base price depending on size and glass configuration. See pricing on each product line above.
Q: Is soundproofing available on all Seemray products?
A: Yes — the laminated glass, gas-filled cavities and sealed frames that provide soundproofing are available across our full range of windows and doors.
Q: Does soundproofing also improve energy efficiency?
A: Yes — the same laminated and multi-pane glass that blocks sound also improves thermal insulation, and our Global80™ package meets Passive House-level energy performance.
Q: Which Seemray option is best for my situation?
A: It depends on your noise source and budget — see our guide on choosing the most soundproof window for your home for a walkthrough by scenario.
All of our curtain wall windows are at least 50% more energy efficient than what is required by ENERGY STAR® certification standards.
A steel reinforced frame strengthens the entire window, keeping the structure intact without bending. All windows are guaranteed for 100 years.
All of our windows are 80-100% more soundproof than that of most architectural-grade windows, keeping out the sounds of lawnmowers, cars, etc.
With a 10-point locking system and optional Super Triplex laminated or tempered glass, these windows are 3x more secure than the average window.
Soundproofing isn't sold as a standalone product — it's a glass and sealing upgrade you choose within any Seemray window or door. Upgrading to our high-STC laminated or triple-pane package typically adds $150–$400 to the base price of your chosen window or door, depending on size and glass configuration.
