Mustwall for stud walls is a 10mm thick acoustic insulation panel manufactured from SBR and EPDM fibres. A non-woven, non-stretch synthetic membrane is applied on both sides for added protection. Mustwall is an excellent product for combatting airborne sound transmission in all types of stud and partition walls.

A stud wall (also called a dry wall or gypsum board wall) is made of two layers of plasterboard which are fixed on a single or double metal or timber frame. Mustwall can greatly enhance the performance of this type of wall.
