Soundproof Drywall
90% of soundproof drywall installations choose QuietRock.
Award winning, UL classified, patented QuietRock products revolutionized the building of high STC walls when introduced in 2003. The top selling sound damping drywall in North America (with 1 million panels installed) continues to save builders money and exceed expectations in ease of use, reliability and proven results in over 35,000 projects. QuietRock replaces older techniques such as resilient channels, clips, sound board and vinyl and offers lower cost solutions than other methods with higher STC performance.
From 1/2” residential to 1-3/8” THX professional products, QuietRock sound damping drywall hangs and finishes just like standard drywall. Fully lab and field tested to STC 80 (depending on model and assembly).*

Listen to the difference QuietRock can make on your walls:
(set your speakers to a low volume)

|
|
|
Certain QuietRock products are covered under U.S. Patent 7,181,891.
* Installation of an acoustical wall requires proper sealing to avoid the likelihood of sound transmitting through wall penetrations, leaks or flanking paths. A building’s structure can also spread air and structure-born sound. Lowering the unwanted sound coming through a common wall may require extending coverage to the adjacent hard flooring, walls and ceilings. Additionally, any wall, floor or ceiling penetrations, as well as doors and windows, create paths for sound. Each installation and situation will differ. No construction method or material should be considered 100% soundproof. It is recommended that you consult with an expert to meet your acoustical requirements. QuietRock is tested in controlled, laboratory conditions. Due to the many variables in actual installations your results may vary.
