Sound insulation

Sound insulation is the reduction of sound as it passes through an element of built structure, which can be a partition, wall, ceiling or floor.

Long-term noise disturbance can lead to significant health problems. Gyproc’s high performance sound insulation products has a solution to this problem. With SoundBloc walling systems, made of SoundBloc plasterboard which are designed and developed with sound insulating properties in mind, noise disturbances are eliminated, making your environment more comfortable to live and work in.

Encourage peace and comfort with our sound-resistant solutions
