Tuff Mass offers superior sound isolation in a safe, non-toxic noise barrier material. Soundproofing barriers are typically installed directly on the studs or joists to reduce noise transmission between the source of the sound and the destination. Block out the noise you don't want as well as contain the sound that you do want. TuffMass is perfect for homes, apartments, condos, offices, etc. Tuff-Mass is also widely used in marine applications. Vinyl barrier is one of the best noise barrier products and is the most commonly used mass layer in composite insulations.

Tuff Mass is available with PSA. A peel-and-stick pressure sensitive adhesive backing on one side of the noise barrier greatly simplifies the installation process.
