Peace and Quiet where you need it most.

Bradford SoundScreen insulation filters out noise and replaces it with quiet, comfortable living. So when you come home and close the door, you close out the noisy neighbours, honking horns, blaring sirens, late night parties, even the non-stop rap and hip-hop screaming out of the kids room. That's why insulating your home with SoundScreen is the easiest, most comfortable decision you'll ever make.

SoundScreen dramatically reduces unwanted noise transfer through stud walls, floors & ceilings by as much as 85% in sound power level.

Product Description

SoundScreen is a lightweight insulation material manufactured from a molten mixture of natural rock and recycled blast furnace waste products, and bonded with a thermosetting resin. It is specially formulated with water repellent to prevent moisture ingress into buildings.

The product is light brown in colour, and comes in two sizes designed to suit the standard stud or joist spacings of 450mm and 600mm.

SoundScreen is supplied in strong polythene packaging for ease of transport and handling and is especially recommended where an economical combination of acoustic & thermal insulation is required. For higher performance walls use SoundScreen with CSR Gyprock Soundchek plasterboard.

The product is can be supplied with factory facings subject to minimum order quantities.

Note: Depending on the wall system used, where Rw is the Weighted Sound Reduction Index. See the CSR High Performance Walls and Ceiling brochure for various system results.

Corrosion Resistance

SoundScreen is faintly alkaline and incapable of corroding steel. To maintain this condition, protection must be provided against contamination from external sources. When tested in accordance with BS 3958 Part 5-1986,Bradford SoundScreen products have a pH of 7.0-9.0.
