Mass loaded vinyl soundproofing

The day that mass loaded vinyl was introduced to the soundproofing industry, was the day that the soundproofing world changed forever. Mass loaded vinyl (MLV) is one of the highest rated and top selling soundproofing materials on the market today. MLV was developed as a non-toxic replacement for lead sheeting, which had been used for years as a soundproofing agent. American mass loaded vinyl consists of a high-grade vinyl material that is impregnated with barium salts and silica’s (sand) to give it the same characteristics as lead. The secret of the soundproofing qualities of mass loaded vinyl lie in it sheer mass and ability to block unwanted sound transmission through walls and ceilings. Homeowners like the fact that it is safe for any room in the house. Mass loaded vinyl took the market by storm when it was first introduced. Lead sheeting was scarce and difficult to obtain in usable quantities for soundproofing, not to mention its toxic nature. Mass loaded vinyl is a completely safe, non-toxic limpid vinyl that is attached directly to studs or joists of walls and ceilings. The mass loaded vinyl is then sealed at the seams and around the perimeter with a quality acoustical caulk. Once the caulk has been applied then it is recommended that you tape the seams only in order to maintain the membrane effect. Mass loaded vinyl has given the face of soundproofing a fresh new look and has proven itself to be a most effective sound blocking and reflective barrier material.
