A Thin Sound Abatement System

While many sound-abatement products rely on solid or absorbing materials, Acoustiblok does neither. The thin, flexible 1/8-inch-thick polymer sheets are stapled or screwed to studs before drywall. The product transforms acoustical energy into inaudible “internal friction energy,” the firm says, and allows easy access to the wall interior for plumbing and wiring maintenance. The recyclable material comes in rolls of 30-foot, 60-foot, and 350-foot lengths. Pricing varies according to types of sound and level of noise reduction desired. acoustiblok.com
