Acoustical Wall & Floor Insulation
The word insulation is often associated with the control of heat, either trapping heat within a structure or keeping it out. Acoustic insulation, however, is designed to control sound instead. Regardless of where you are, there is almost always outside noise associated with your surrounding. Acoustic insulation blocks that sound making any environment more relaxing and pleasant. It is ideal for apartments where there are such close quarters and office buildings. It is also great for any building that is located close to a freeway, train, or public transportation. Some of our acoustical products repels water, is are non-corrosive, and are made of natural materials.
Rigid Fiberglass Acoustical Board Insulation for appliances, acoustical, and other special situations is available in all densities, thicknesses, widths, and lengths. Rigid Fiberglass can be purchased in faced or unfaced.
Insul-Shield® Sound Insulation
Insul-SHIELD® is a series of semi-rigid or rigid thermal and acoustical fiber glass insulating boards for custom curtain wall applications. They are made from inorganic glass fibers bonded with a thermosetting binder. The insulating boards are typically used where framing is not present. Faced Insul-SHIELD boards (FKS-25, PSK or Black Faced) can be used where a vapor barrier is needed. FSK facing has the best fire performance characteristics and helps maximize lighting efficiency. Insul-SHIELD Black provides a semi-rigid substrate beneath the fabric treatment used on theater side walls. The black, mat-faced insulation provides adequate shadowing behind any surface treatment.
Spin-Glas Board Sound Insulation
Equipment Spin-Glas Board is a rigid board manufactured from fine, rotary-process glass fibers bonded with a special thermosetting resin. Thermal and Acoustical Solution. Equipment Spin-Glas Board can be used in a variety of applications that require good thermal and acoustical efficiency in a minimal space. Appliance and Equipment Applications. Because the glass fibers in Equipment Spin-Glas Board are extremely fine, they create an enormous number of minute air spaces, making the insulation highly effective for sound absorption and thermal properties. These glass fibers are resistant to the effects of moisture, oil, grease, and most acids. Because these fibers are highly resilient, they resist settling, breakdown or sagging from vibration. They yield readily to impact and protect facings from puncture or tearing. Equipment Spin-Glas Board provides neat, square corners for an improved, finished appearance for equipment systems.
Mineral Wool AFB Sound Insulation
ROXUL AFB® (Acoustical Fire Batt) is a batt insulation product designed specifically for application in wall/floor systems where acoustical performance and fire resistance are the primary concerns. This noncombustible lightweight product has excellent acoustical dampening properties and is dimensionally stable which makes it ideal for friction fit into wall partitions and system applications from party walls to plant/manufacturing walls. The product is chemically inert which means that it will not promote corrosion. The AFB product comes in a number of thicknesses to meet the requirements of both retrofit and new construction applications.
