Acoustic Plasterboard

Acoustic plasterboards are made up of a high-quality gypsum core packed with soundproofing additives such as foam and fibreglass. The boards are lined with heavy-duty blue paper facings and have a tapered edge (TE). The soundproof plasterboard has a gypsum core that is reinforced with dense additives during the manufacturing process to reduce sound levels from travelling through the board and into adjoining rooms and buildings.
