Application

Crown Acoustic Partition Roll is designed specifically for the sound insulation of metal and
timber stud partitions.

Using mineral wool as a sound absorbent layer in partitions will significantly improve
their acoustic performance, whilst only adding minimally to the overall mass of the structure.
The mineral wool complements the plasterboard by absorbing airborne sound in the
cavity and reducing reverberation. It also has the effect of reducing the hollow sound that
can occur in partitions with unfilled cavities.

Metal stud partitions faced with standard 12.5mm plasterboard and infilled with Crown
Acoustic Partition Roll can meet the requirement for a 40 Rw dB sound reduction in
accordance with Approved Document E of the Building Regulations.
