Quiet Solution Introduces QuietRock 525 Panels

QuietRock 525 provides the best value and performance for soundproofing

SUNNYVALE, Calif., January 11, 2006 - Quiet Solution, LLC, provider of award-winning
soundproofing products and solutions, today announced the availability of the lowest-cost, high-performance soundproof drywall panel, QuietRock 525. With simple score, snap and hang, QuietRock 525 installs and finishes like standard drywall and requires no special tools or equipment.

QuietRock 525 weighs about the same as standard drywall and provides superior sound isolation at a lower total installed cost than other methods. With STC values of up to 72, QuietRock 525 provides acoustic mitigation equivalent to eight layers of standard drywall, making it ideal for multifamily, home and commercial construction. The patent-pending CPG composite technology in QuietRock QR-525 uses advanced viscoelastic polymers, ceramics and gypsum (CPG) in a constrained three-layer fabrication.

"QuietRock 525 represents the next generation in gypsum wallboard soundproofing and an exciting edition to our lineup," said Andy Ackerman of P&A Drywall Supply in St. Louis, Missouri. "Over the years, QuietRock has proven to be a highly reliable solution to sound and noise mitigation in residential and commercial buildings. The new 'score and snap' QuietRock 525 gives us an easier to use, more affordable soundproof drywall for our demanding customer base."

"Our customers have had great success with QuietRock since we started carrying the product," said Craig St. John of Westwood Building Materials in Lawndale, California. "We looked at the alternatives and nothing else is as advanced, or has been tested as much, as this line of proven products. The new QuietRock 525 brings true ease of use to soundproofing and is already so popular we are selling it by the trainload."

“QuietRock products have been used over the past three years in over 10,000 successful projects. We developed QuietRock 525 to make high-performance soundproofing more affordable and easier to use. Now builders and architects can achieve the lowest installed cost, factoring in material and labor, and deliver superior soundproofing with proven QuietRock technology,” said
Kevin Surace, CEO of Quiet Solution.

QuietRock 525 delivers lab-tested soundproofing performance

The 5/8” panels were tested by globally recognized labs at the National Research Council of Canada (NRC), which showed the panel delivered an STC value of 51 when used on just one side of a single wood stud assembly (compared to only 34 with standard 5/8” gypsum), outperforming standard gypsum walls by 17dB. QuietRock 525 is also one hour fire-rated, equivalent to Type X drywall in industry-standard full scale testing. Copies of test results are available for download from the company’s website.
