    Reduce the impact of sound transmission

    As our living and working environments evolve, the need to reduce sound transmission in homes, offices, and Airbnb properties has become increasingly important.

    Whether you’re building from scratch or enhancing an existing space, ensuring quiet, comfortable areas is crucial.

    Our soundproofing solutions focus on using dense materials to combat impact sound—like footsteps—and airborne sounds such as music, conversations, and television that travel through floors and walls.

    Introducing Phonestar

    PhoneStar is a revolutionary soundproofing board made from loose sand encapsulated in engineered cardboard layers. These two materials are incredible at reducing noise transfer. 

    How phonestar works 

    The carefully designed cardboard layers work to disrupt soundwaves, while the loose sand filling absorbs vibrations. This layered composition, paired with the added mass, creates an unparalleled sound reduction solution.

    Ideal applications for PhoneStar
    • Preventing noise from neighbouring apartments (both above/below and next door)
    • Soundproofing boardrooms and offices 
    • Perfect for home theatres, music rooms and recording studios
    • Preventing residential noise from motorways and traffic outside

    MEASURE
    MEASURE

    Plan your install. PhoneStar sheet sizes are 1200mm long x 800mm wide. Its important to cut for a firm fit as gaps will transmit sound.

    CUT
    CUT

    PhoneStar can be cut to size with a saw, or craft knife. Cut edges must be sat upright and be sealed with PhoneStar Tape, to prevent the sand spilling out.

    INSTALL
    INSTALL

    PhoneStar is fixed horizontally to walls using standard drywall screws. After installation, seal any gaps with an acoustic sealant before lining with the final wall covering. PhoneStar can also be used for floors and ceilings.
