CertainTeed SilentFX acoustic gypsum board
CertainTeed’s SilentFX acoustic gypsum board [1] consists of Green Glue viscoelastic, noise-reducing polymer sandwiched between two Type X fire-resistant gypsum boards. The cost-effective solution achieves a sound transmission class (STC) rating of 50 and higher, and also offers a high level of mold and fire resistance. Designed for use on interior walls and ceilings, SilentFX can be used for new construction and renovations over wood or steel framing.
Editors’ Comments: Drywall manufacturers continue to push the envelope with innovations like CertainTeed’s sound-insulating board. Quieter homes feel more spacious.
