CMS Acoustics - CMS Acoustics delivers maximum isolation for walls and ceilings with the IsoMax Clip

As the popularity of apartment developments continues to rise, so does the challenge of controlling sound transfer between dwellings whilst keeping construction heights to a minimum. To help overcome this, CMS Acoustic Solutions has launched to market the IsoMax Clip system, a high performing and cost effective alternative to traditional wall and ceiling decoupling methods.
Constructed using a special rubber isolator, the IsoMax Clip is a complete isolation system that outperforms standard resilient bar constructions by up to 7dB, offering sound insulation of 56dB. It is also able to withstand loads of up to 22.5kg per clip, providing greater peace of mind for developers and dwellers.
Unlike existing products on the market, the IsoMax Clip does not require a large void between the wall or ceiling. This low profile design means construction heights can be kept to a minimum and available living space is not encroached.
Suitable for use in new builds or refurbishments, the IsoMax Clip is expected to be popular with city centre developments, particularly high end apartments featuring home theatre systems.
Paul Absolon, technical director of CMS Acoustics, comments: “The IsoMax Clip system provides superior acoustic performance on existing or new walls, exceeding Part E requirements by up to 13dB. As well as being ideal for separating walls and ceilings subject to pre-completion testing, the IsoMax Clip can also be used internally to optimise standards of living.”
Quick and easy to install using standard materials, the IsoMax Clip is one of the most cost effective methods to achieve superior noise control in walls and ceilings. Attaching the IsoMax Clip system to ceiling joists, timber and metal studs or masonry simply secures the drywall furring channel and decouples the gypsum board from the non-isolated structure.
The IsoMax Clip reduces the risk of error at installation stage, as the screws cannot be inadvertently attached to the stud or joist through the resilient structure. Given the frequent occurrences where the resilient leg of the channel is directly screwed into the structure and rendered ineffective, this feature is particularly useful when designing and constructing ceilings and walls for noise control.
The IsoMax Clip system is available in the UK and Ireland exclusively from CMS Acoustics as a result of a joint venture between CMS Acoustics and Kinetics Noise Control, one of the world leaders in noise control.
As well as Kinetics Noise Control, CMS Acoustics has a number of other exclusive third party partnerships with market leading companies such as Regupol manufacturer, BSW. In addition, CMS Acoustics has its own in house manufacturing facilities and is the UK’s leading independent supplier of its own acoustic systems, delivering high quality solutions at competitive prices.
