A Quieter, More Comfortable Experience

At Grand Slam, we’re always looking for ways to make your space more enjoyable and comfortable. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our Noise Reduction Backboard; a product designed to significantly reduce noise and create a more peaceful environment. Whether you’re using it in a gym, at home, or in a community space, our noise-reduction backboard is here to make a noticeable difference.

Why Choose Our Noise Reduction Backboard?

We recently conducted some in-house tests to see how our noise-reduction backboard compares to a traditional timber backboard. While these tests aren’t official, the results clearly show that our backboard does an excellent job of reducing noise. Here’s what we found:

1. It’s Much Quieter

Our noise reduction backboard makes a big difference in how loud things sound. In our tests, the average noise level with a traditional timber backboard was 84 dB but with our noise reduction backboard, it dropped to 76.5 dB. To put that into perspective: A busy city street or a loud alarm clock versus a vacuum cleaner or a busy restaurant. That’s a 7.5 dB reduction, which means things are noticeably quieter and more pleasant.

2. It Reduces Loud Noises

Loud, sudden noises can be jarring, but our backboard helps soften them. With the timber backboard, the loudest noises reached 102.5 dB, but with our noise reduction backboard, the loudest noises were reduced to 97.7 dB. For comparison: A chainsaw or motorcycle at full throttle versus a lawn mower a couple of houses away. This makes the environment more comfortable, especially during high-energy activities.

3. It Keeps Things Quiet Overall

Even during quieter moments, our backboard performs better. The quietest noise level with the timber backboard was 65.9 dB, but with our backboard, it dropped to 50.3 dB. To give you an idea: The sound of a normal conversation versus the sound of light rain on a tiled roof. This means the space stays calmer and more peaceful, even when things aren’t at their loudest.

4. It’s Better for Your Ears and Health

Loud noises over time can be hard on your ears and even increase stress. Our noise reduction backboard helps protect you by lowering the overall noise exposure. In our tests, the potential noise exposure dropped from 72.90% with timber to just 9.90% with our backboard. That’s a huge 86% reduction, meaning you’re much less likely to be bothered by noise.
