Product Description

Soundproof, vibration-absorbing plywood is a specialized building material designed to provide excellent noise insulation and reduce vibrations in addition to retaining the structural benefits of traditional plywood. By incorporating innovative sound-damping materials such as cork and rubber, this product offers an ideal solution for applications where both noise control and vibration reduction are essential. Whether you’re working on sound-sensitive spaces like recording studios, home theaters, or simply need to improve privacy and comfort, this plywood serves both aesthetic and functional purposes

Production Features:

The production of soundproof, vibration-absorbing plywood involves the integration of specialized materials like cork and rubber within the plywood layers. These materials dampen both sound waves and vibrations, enhancing the overall acoustic performance. The process includes bonding high-quality birch veneers with phenolic-formaldehyde adhesive, ensuring durability and moisture resistance.

• Rubber-based Plywood: Includes rubber layers for enhanced vibration absorption and superior noise insulation.
• Cork-based Plywood: Features cork layers known for their excellent sound-absorbing qualities, effectively reducing airborne sound and vibrations.
• Durability and Moisture Resistance: Phenolic-formaldehyde adhesive is used for strong bonding and moisture resistance, ensuring the plywood maintains its structural integrity over time.

Properties of Soundproof, Vibration Absorbing Plywood:

• Acoustic Insulation: Effectively reduces sound transmission. Ideal for environments where sound control is crucial, this plywood absorbs a wide range of frequencies, ensuring a quieter space.
• Vibration Absorption: Specially designed to reduce vibrations, this plywood minimizes noise generated by vibrations, making it an excellent choice for spaces that require both soundproofing and vibration control (e.g., near industrial machinery or transport routes).
• Durability: Highly durable despite its acoustic and vibration-damping properties, the plywood withstands construction wear and provides long-lasting performance.
• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications, including walls, floors, ceilings, partitions, and machinery enclosures. It can be finished with paint, laminate, or veneer to suit different design requirements.
• Ease of Processing: Just like standard plywood, this material is easy to cut, shape, and install with conventional tools and methods, making it ideal for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.

Surface Types:

Our soundproof, vibration-absorbing plywood is available in several surface finishes to suit different aesthetic and functional needs:

• Uncoated (NS): Ideal for applications where appearance is less critical, providing a simple, functional solution.
• Both Sides Sanded (S2): Provides a smooth, refined look, ideal for visible applications where the surface appearance is important.
• Coated Options (HPL, CPL, or Fiberglass): High-pressure laminate (HPL), continuous pressure laminate (CPL), or fiberglass coatings offer enhanced durability and aesthetics, making the plywood suitable for high-traffic areas or environments where additional protection is needed.

Sizes and Thicknesses:

We offer soundproof, vibration-absorbing plywood in multiple thicknesses and sizes to cater to different project requirements:

• Rubber-based Acoustic Plywood: Available in thicknesses of 15 mm and 18 mm, with a standard size of 1525×1525 mm.
• Cork-based Acoustic Plywood: Available in thicknesses ranging from 11 mm to 23 mm, with standard sizes of 1500×1500 mm, 2440×1220 mm, and 1450×2950 mm.

These flexible size and thickness options allow for easy customization based on the specific needs of your project.

Available Grades:

Our soundproof plywood comes in various grades to accommodate both aesthetic and functional requirements:

• B/BB: High-quality veneer on the face and standard reverse side. Ideal for visible applications where both appearance and performance are essential.
• BB/BB: Good quality on both sides, suitable for general construction where both sides may be visible.
• BB/CP: One side has high-quality veneer while the other is lower-grade. Suitable for one-sided applications where only acoustic properties are important.
• BB/C: A high-quality face veneer with a utility veneer on the reverse side. Best for structural applications where appearance isn’t a priority.
• CP/CP: Utility-grade veneers on both sides, ideal for hidden applications where only acoustic insulation matters.
• CP/C & C/C: Lower-grade veneers on both sides, perfect for cost-effective applications requiring primarily acoustic insulation, without concern for surface appearance.

Material Composition:

Our Soundproof, Vibration Absorbing Plywood is made from:

• Birch Veneer: Known for its strength and stability, birch provides the structural foundation for the plywood.
• Cork and Rubber: These materials are integrated to enhance the plywood’s ability to absorb sound and reduce vibrations. Cork is particularly effective at absorbing airborne sounds, while rubber enhances the reduction of vibrations transmitted through the material.

Adhesive:

We use phenolic-formaldehyde adhesive for bonding the plywood layers. This adhesive is known for its:

• Strong Bonding Properties: Ensures long-lasting structural integrity.
• Moisture Resistance: Helps prevent warping or damage under varying environmental conditions.

Formaldehyde Emissions and Moisture Content:

• Low Formaldehyde Emissions: Our plywood complies with strict environmental standards, emitting only 0.1–0.3 mg/m² h, well below the allowable limit of 3.5 mg/m² h.
• Moisture Content: The plywood maintains a moisture content of 5–10%, ensuring stability and preventing deformation in different environmental conditions.

Packaging Weight:

The weight of each plywood sheet varies based on its thickness and size, ranging from 400 to 950 kg per package. This range allows for easy handling and transport, depending on your project’s scale and logistical requirements.

Noise and Vibration Protection:

• Rubber-based Plywood: Provides noise reduction of ≥35 dB, along with vibration insulation, making it highly effective for both soundproofing and reducing vibrations in noise-sensitive environments.
• Cork-based Plywood: Provides noise insulation of ≥32 dB, offering excellent sound absorption while minimizing vibration transmission.
