15mm Gyproc SoundBloc Board Tapered Edge Plasterboard 2400mm x 1200mm

15mm Gyproc SoundBloc Board does exactly what it says on the tin; this glass-fibre infused sound-resistant plasterboard with a high-density core does a phenomenal job of blocking sound. These impressive 2400mm x 1200mm boards are purposed for use in British Gypsum wall lining and partition systems where greater levels of sound insulation are required.

15mm Soundbloc plasterboard consists of an aerated gypsum core comprising glass fibre, water repellent and other additives and is firmly bonded to an easily identifiable blue paper face and a brown reverse side paper. 

Soundbloc Board offers first-rate sound insulation when dry lining internal surfaces with the goal of preventing noise transmission. On top of sound resistance, they also work to improve fire resistance; extending evacuation times in the event of a fire.
