Mammoth high performance acoustic sections manage sound in residential and commercial buildings.
Mammoth® acoustic wall sections (previously NOVAhush) manage sound around bathrooms, bedrooms, entertainments systems and offices. High performance acoustic wall sections, they are designed to reduce sound transmission at all frequencies and perform as an acoustic infill material by providing sound absorption within the cavity.
Mammoth products contain recycled polyester fibres. Mammoth acoustic wall section insulation uses up to 15,600 recycled plastic bottles per 100sqm*.
Mammoth's acoustic range also includes Wall Blankets, Bafflestack for between floors, Panel Absorber and Duct Liner Insulation.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width="1/2"][vc_gallery type="flexslider_slide" interval="3" images="6736,6734,6735" img_size="540x390" el_class="productzoom-icon"][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner content_placement="middle" el_class="properties-section py-100"][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text el_class="image-width-text-content"]
