Application
SIDERISE CBX flexible acoustic barriers for suspended ceilings are flexible composite quilts designed for freehanging in ceiling voids above partition lines. They have been specifically developed to provide a simple solution to improving `room to room’ sound separation via a common ceiling void.
All grades of this product offer exceptional sound reduction properties and are suitable for both new build and refurbishment projects. The product is extremely quick and easy to install.
Being flexible and thin the quilts are ideal for remedial treatment requiring only limited disruption to an existing suspended ceiling during installation.
Product Description
SIDERISE CBX are multi-layered composite materials. The central layer is a thin flexible heavy septum membrane.
Two types of membrane are available. lead foil or a polymeric heavy salt loaded barrier. Both types incorporate a laminated glass fabric ‘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.
Both types of central membranes provide matching acoustic performance for each of the two standard surface weight options. The primary difference between the types is their mechanical characteristics when bent or deformed. The lead foil membrane has a tendency to memorise deformation. The selection of product is normally down to preference.
To each side of the membrane is a soft high-tensile glass fibre insulation layer. This is faced as standard on the exposed surface with a reinforced aluminium foil.
Alternative facings for special conditions are available, for example, with open-cell ceilings a matt black finish is commonly required.

Manual 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.

Unpacking procedure
The sheets are packed directly onto pallets or packing crates, either fully flat, folded in two or folded in three.
Before removing/lifting from the pallet or crate, each sheet should be 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 removed/lifted.
All standard health and safety lifting/handling techniques should be observed.
