BlockAid®
Vinyl Sound Barrier, also known as mass loaded vinyl (MLV),
is a limp-mass material used to block unwanted noise and reduce sound
transmission without reducing space.
Constructed of non-reinforced high temperature vinyl with no lead
fillers, this material is as heavy as lead, yet is safe and easily cut
with a utility knife.
Originally designed to block transmission of sound through walls, floors
and ceilings, BlockAid® is also available as a backer for
Cloudscape® Ceiling Tiles to limit sound flanking over walls with
ceiling grids, in
Quilted
Fiberglass Blankets to create sound enclosures or in
Composite
Foam to quiet noisy machinery. It can also be used as an effective
pipe or duct wrap.
For
use in new construction or retrofits, BlockAid® can be installed over
studs, sandwiched between layers of drywall or applied over existing
layers of drywall then covered with a finish material such as
Sound Channels® acoustical wall covering.
