Versatile, sustainable sound absorbers
Quietstone Light is a rigid, durable absorber made from recycled glass. The material is suitable for external use, indoor use and settings which require high impact resistance. It can be worked on site, pigmented or treated with a range of finishes and is non combustible, chemically inert and non fibrous. Panels can be either mechanically fixed or bonded and a range of sizes are available including custom options.

Noise barriers, tunnels and industrial
Ideal for adding an absorbent facing to noise barriers and many other areas requiring a durable and weather resistant solution. Installation is simple as panels can be cut on site and mechanically fixed or bonded to the substrate. Many build up options can be used to suit acoustic requirements and budget.
Working with QuietstoneLight
One of the main advantages of Quietstone Light is the ease of installation. Panels can be worked using normal woodworking equipment and a dust mask. We can adjust the adhesive to create very flexible panels. Likewise, if you want an even surface on flat walls, our standard panels are ideal.
Fixing methods
Bonding can be achieved using either adhesive or mechanical fixing depending on substrate and setting. We can provide Ceresit CM18 thin-bed adhesive mortal which will adhere to all solid, loadbearing surfaces. This allows for very rapid, economical installation. Alternatively, Mechanical fixing is suitable and allows for frameworks and air gaps which improve acoustic performance. Contact us for guidance and technical details.
