Soundproofing Barriers
Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV)
High-density flexible barrier for blocking airborne noise through walls, floors, and ceilings.
Overview
Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) is a high-density, flexible soundproofing material designed to block sound transmission between walls, floors, ceilings, and machinery. Add MLV to lightweight partitions and floors for a major uplift in isolation — without the depth of a masonry wall.

Benefits
Why customers choose Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV).
Manufacturer-direct pricing, project-scale timelines, and real acoustic-engineering support behind every order.
- Blocks airborne noise transmission through walls, floors, ceilings
- Adds mass without adding wall depth — no room-volume loss
- Rolls out over drywall, subfloor, or ceiling grids
- Improves STC of standard drywall walls by +8 to +12 (placeholder)
Installation guide
- Cut MLV to size with a standard utility knife
- Fix in place with acoustic caulk, staples, or adhesive-backed roll for full seal
- Seal every seam and edge — any gap kills isolation
- Cover with a second layer of drywall for a fully sealed mass-air-mass wall
Care & maintenance
- Once installed behind drywall, MLV is maintenance-free
- Inspect exposed installations (machinery enclosures) annually for tears
MLV blocks sound leaving or entering a room (isolation). Foam absorbs sound already inside the room. Most studios and home theatres need both.
Roughly yes — heavier = better isolation. But diminishing returns kick in past 5 MM. For most residential and studio use, 2 MM is the sweet spot; 5 MM is for machinery rooms and STC-critical partitions.
