Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) - An Overview

Our MLV Mass Loaded Vinyl is a dense yet flexible sheet material manufactured from vinyl compounds blended with mineral fillers. This formulation creates a high surface weight material that remains limp, allowing it to effectively block sound vibrations rather than resonate with them.

Our MLV soundproofing sheets are simple to install and can be seamlessly integrated beneath carpet, gypsum, cement, or wooden flooring. This is a versatile solution that can raise the Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of walls and ceilings, effectively dampening unwanted noise. Whether used as a sound barrier or within multi-layered constructions, MLV can be your perfect choice for optimal soundproofing.
