Lead For Sound Proofing
Lead can be formed and folded to accommodate any shape so where the installer is faced with existing ducting, pipework and other obstructions, the scope to cut and shape it gives the greatest versatility in providing a continuous barrier.
Acoustic Insulation & Damping
Lead sheet is an ideal acoustic damping material as it eliminates vibration and reverberation.
It is easy to attach to other materials to produce structurally sound walls and in combination with fibre board, plasterboard or plywood can be used to provide acoustic partitions and enclosures.
Many materials are quoted as having superior acoustic value to lead but this invariably ignores practical aspects of installation and design life.
