Sound Block is a sound and light blocking material.
It is a flexible, high density, reinforced vinyl that resists the passage of sound waves and reduces the transmission of airborne noise. Additionally, it eliminates light transmission through the fabric.
- Apply to noise source or its housing
- Won’t shrink, rot or cause metal corrosion
- Resists adverse environment conditions, oils, weak acids and alkalis
- Thin & light weight fabric
- Flame retardant
- Anti-mildew & Anti-fungal
- Anti-microbial
- Made & manufactured in USA

Additional Sound Block Fabric Applications
Sound Block can be combined with acoustical foams, mineral fiber, glass fiber, and ceramic fiber insulation to provide lightweight, efficient composites with high transmission losses over a broad frequency range. It is often used in walls under the drywall in home offices and industrial buildings to assist in suppressing noises.
Other suggested uses:
- Very thin layer of sound blocking mass – For some floors or walls with tight space constraints, Sound Block offers a space saving solution over drywall for sound blocking.
- Flexible source of mass – Sound Block products can be used to wrap columns or pipes, to line ductwork, or to fill gaps around doors and windows.
- Temporary application or a portable source of mass – Sound Block products can be used as a portable sound blanket or noise control curtain.
- Decorative curtains – Sound Block products can be sewn or heat laminated into window and wall coverings. Since the fabric blocks out light they offer energy saving in addition to reducing sound.
