4mm Hush – 10kg/m² Barrier Mat - Rubber Underlay - 1200mm x 2000mm roll

4mm Hush – 10kg/m² Barrier Mat is a dense acoustic barrier material that significantly enhance the sound insulation properties of existing lightweight panels. This versatile product is a vinyl sound barrier mat, expertly loaded with naturally occurring minerals to achieve its impressive mass and acoustic efficacy. Importantly, its formulation is free of undesirable substances such as lead, unrefined aromatic oils, and bitumen, making it a responsible choice for various applications. This barrier mat is particularly effective when used with common building materials like metal, wood, and plastic panels. It is typically applied by being fixed in intimate contact with the original panel, ensuring maximum acoustic performance by creating a monolithic effect. A standout characteristic of the Hush – 5 kg/m² Barrier Mat is its exceptional ability to overcome coincidence dip resonance. This phenomenon, often found in stiff lightweight composites such as plywood sheets and hollow core panels, typically reduces their sound insulation at specific frequencies. By adding the Hush barrier mat, this weakness is effectively mitigated, leading to a more consistent and higher level of sound reduction across the audible spectrum. This dense, yet flexible, barrier mat is an ideal solution for upgrading the acoustic performance of partitions, ceilings, doors, or other elements where adding significant mass is crucial for effective noise control.
