SilveRboard Acoustic insulation is a low density rigid board designed to improve the acoustic performance of various wall, floor and ceiling assemblies. It is made from Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) covered with a layer of polypropylene reflective lamination on both sides. It offers great sound attenuation and thermal resistance properties when installed in wall assemblies.
The double-sided lamination dramatically increases board strength and flexibility, reducing site damage and waste. When the board is installed with an air gap, the reflective film is able to reflect radiant energy helping further improve its thermal performance. The availability of larger panels and laminated film helps improve job site efficiency and reduce labor costs.
When installed in a wall assembly, the low-density foam layer serves as a decoupling layer reducing the sound transmission. The boards can be installed in either vertical applications in a wall, or horizontally in floor/roof assemblies.

Low density foam separates solid to solid material contact reducing sound transmission.
When the joints are taped and sealed it can function as a vapor barrier.
Each panel is easy to handle due to its low weight and is easily cut.
SilveRboard does not contain CFCs or HCFCs, no off-gassing and does not promote growth of mold and mildew.
EPS foam can be recycled and uses only steam and water during manufacturing.
