Typical Applications

Suitable for non – Loadbearing separating wall applications, for new build or to upgrade existing masonry walls with confidence.

Offers very effective remedial solution where sound flanking down cavity walls has resulted in failure on site.

Can assist with meeting external walls thermal requirements by allowing the use of lighter block work and offering an added U-value performance.

A timber stud application is also acceptable and easily used although the test results were obtained using steel stud.

Information on our Acoustic Quilt

Our Acoustic Quilt consists of a laminate of 25mm Acoustic Fibreglass, 2Kg acoustic membrane and 25mm Acoustic Fibreglass.

It performs approx 4 times better than our Acoustic Mineral Wool as it has a barrier layer sandwiched in the middle which blocks airborne sound better than lead.

The Acoustic Quilt exceeds the new Document E Resistance to the Passage of Sound' making it an attractive product for modern building techniques.

Acoustic Quilt can up rate a typical 12.5mm partition by up to 16dB!
Acoustic Quilt can up rate a typical floor section by up to 13dB!
