Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV): MLV is a flexible, dense material designed to block sound transmission through walls, floors, and ceilings. It is effective at reducing both airborne and impact noise and can be applied directly to surfaces or used as an underpayment.
Sound boards are specialized panels that absorb and block sound. They are often used in combination with other soundproofing materials to enhance overall performance. These boards can be installed on walls and ceilings to reduce noise and improve acoustic quality.
Green Glue is a noise-proofing compound applied between layers of drywall. It works by damping vibrations and reducing sound transmission between walls and ceilings. Green Glue is highly effective in reducing both airborne and impact noise.
Putty pads are used to seal gaps around electrical outlets and other wall penetrations. These pads help to prevent sound leakage through small openings, enhancing the overall effectiveness of your soundproofing system.
Quiet Sheetrock is specially designed drywall that incorporates sound-dampening materials. It is effective at reducing sound transmission and improving acoustic performance in walls and ceilings.
Floor pads are used to reduce impact noise transmitted through floors. They are typically placed under carpets or other flooring materials to absorb vibrations and minimize noise from footsteps and other impacts.
 Isolation clips and channels are used to decouple drywall from the underlying studs or joists. These clips and channels create a gap that reduces sound transmission and vibration. By attaching the drywall to these clips and channels, soundproofing is enhanced, and both airborne and impact noise are effectively managed.
Acoustical sealant is a specialized caulk used to seal gaps and cracks in walls, floors, and ceilings. It is designed to remain flexible and adhere well to a variety of materials, providing an airtight seal that reduces sound leakage and enhances overall soundproofing effectiveness.
Airborne Noise: This type of noise travels through the air and includes sounds like voices, music, barking dogs, and television noise. Effective soundproofing for airborne noise involves using materials that absorb or block sound waves, such as mineral wool insulation, MLV, Quiet Sheetrock, and acoustical sealants.
Impact Noise:This type of noise is generated by physical impacts, such as footsteps, dropping objects, furniture movement, or banging on walls. Impact noise is often addressed by using materials that absorb vibrations and isolate surfaces, such as Green Glue, sound boards, floor pads, and decoupling techniques like isolation clips and channels.
Flanking Noise: Flanking noise occurs when sound travels through indirect paths, such as through gaps in construction, around doors, windows, or through ductwork. Addressing flanking noise requires a comprehensive approach, including air sealing, using door seals, and installing soundproof windows or barriers.
Structural Noise: This noise type is transmitted through a building’s structure, such as vibrations from heavy machinery, elevators, or plumbing systems. Structural noise is mitigated by decoupling techniques, vibration isolation, and installing resilient channels or soundproofing mats.
Effective Noise Control: Decoupling, air sealing, and adding mass significantly reduce sound transmission and vibrations, creating a quieter environment.
Enhanced Comfort: Improve your living or working space by minimizing disruptive noises and enhancing acoustic quality.
