The Pulse of Amsterdam: fresh air without city noise

Living in the city means dynamism, convenience and a vibrant environment. But it also brings challenges, such as noise pollution. The Pulse of Amsterdam, a multifunctional new construction project on the Zuidas, proves that comfortable city living is possible. Thanks to the DucoGrille Acoustic Panel 300, residents enjoy natural ventilation without disturbing traffic noise.

Vibrant mix of living, working and relaxing

The Pulse of Amsterdam is a progressive building project that brings together living, working and recreation in one dynamic complex. The design, by MVSA Architects, includes two towers - an 85-meter residential tower and a 90-meter hotel tower - with a vibrant plinth below filled with hospitality, office and cultural facilities. A large interior garden and roof terraces enhance the green and sustainable character of the building. Thanks to innovative techniques, such as energy generation with solar panels and rainwater harvesting, The Pulse meets the highest sustainability standards.

Healthy air without noise pollution

A healthy indoor environment starts with adequate ventilation, but how do you provide fresh air in an environment with high ambient noise? The residential tower of The Pulse is close to the A10, a location with high noise levels. Therefore, the Duco Acoustic Panel 300 was chosen: a sound-absorbing wall grille that ensures optimal airflow with a noise reduction of up to 17 dB. This keeps homes quiet and healthy, without residents having to choose between ventilation and quietness.

Prefabricated installation: efficient and fast

To reduce construction time and optimize installation, Duco Acoustic Panel 300 diffusers have already been integrated into wood frame construction (HSB) elements at VIANEN Kozijnen. These complete façade modules were then brought to the construction site as ready-made elements and assembled directly. This ensured efficient and precise installation.

Smart ventilation in the city of tomorrow

With The Pulse of Amsterdam, the Zuidas shows what sustainable and comfortable urban living can look like. Thanks to the combination of acoustic ventilation and cleverly designed facades, residents enjoy the energy of the city, without being bothered by city noise.
