QuietRock^® 528 Mold Resistant Soundproof Drywall

Product Presentation

QuietRock DensArmor Plus 528 provides the simplest, lowest-cost, most reliable way to combine top-notch noise reduction, mold resistance, abuse resistance and low indoor air emissions in a UL-classified panel. Other assemblies would require additional materials and labor to approach its performance.

QuietRock DensArmor Plus 528 is designed in a cooperative effort with Georgia-Pacific Gypsum. A single sheet of QuietRock DensArmor Plus 528 on one side of single studs provides a fire-rated, highly mold-resistant assembly that meets building code for party walls.

¹ Indicates no mold growth in a 4-week controlled laboratory test from the DensArmor Plus components of the QuietRock panels. The mold resistance of any building product when used in actual job site conditions may not produce the same results as were achieved in the controlled, laboratory setting. No material can be considered mold proof. When properly used with good design, handling and construction practices, QuietRock DensArmor Plus 528 provides increased mold resistance compared to standard paper-faced wallboard products.

² Components of the panel and polymer have low indoor air emissions.
