CBX Flexible Acoustic Barrier for ceilings

Siderise CBX flexible acoustic barriers for suspended ceilings are flexible composite quilts designed for free- hanging in ceiling voids above partition lines. They have been specifically developed to to reduce `room to room’ sound transmission via a common ceiling void.

Being flexible and thin the quilts are ideal for remedial treatment requiring only limited disruption to an existing suspended ceiling during installation.

As Siderise CBX are faced on both sides and the joints are normally taped, to reduce fibre migration .For critical applications the product can be made fully enclosed by pre-wrapping all edges with Siderise foil tape before final installation.
 

Siderise CBX is a multi-layered composite material. The central layer is a thin, flexible bitumen fee polymeric barrier mat.The barrier incorporates a laminated ‘anti-creep’ layer. This is designed to prevent possible long-term elongation of the product in its normal free hanging condition. It additionally provides reinforcement to through penetrations at fixing points.

To each side of the mass barrier is a glass fibre insulation layer. This is faced as standard on the exposed surface with a reinforced aluminium foil.

Handling

Siderise CBX are fairly heavy barriers but very flexible and care should be taken when handling to protect the product from damage and the handler from personal injury.
Weight per sheet (2000mm x 1200mm std)= 26kg per sheet
Before lifting each sheet should be rolled or folded down the length of the sheet to create a package approximately 1200mm long x 300 - 500mm width/diameter. The product can then be lifted. All standard health and safety lifting/handling techniques should be observed.
 

In terms of 'Reaction to Fire', the products are classified to EN 13501-1. See Table 1.

The product’s acoustic performance is tested in accordance with BS EN ISO 10140-2:2021. Weighted sound reduction index (dB Rw) values for various grades of the product are given below in Table 2.
