Is Acoustic Gold right for me?

Acoustic insulation is typically installed in a wall cavity or between a first floor ceiling and second storey floor at the time of construction. If you are renovating, adding an extension or building a new house, you should consider CSR Bradford’s Acoustic Gold in the following applications to help localise noise and limit disruption to adjoining rooms:

Home theatres
Home offices, study or parents’ retreats
Bathrooms and ensuites
Laundries
External walls
Nursery/kids’ rooms

To achieve even greater reductions, replacing the standard plasterboard with high-density acoustic plasterboard is likely to improve the performance by up to an additional 3 Rw. Acoustic Gold is also ideal for acoustically treating sheds, garages, workshops and other external structures to either keep sound in or out. If you've got an up-and-coming garage band practicing at your place, you should definitely consider Acoustic Gold.
