Acousti-Board Ultra - Natural Fiber Soundproof Backer and Tackboard

Acousti-Board Ultra - Natural Fiber Soundproof Backer and Tackboard

Acousti-Board Ultra™ Soundproof Backer
A Sustainable, Natural Fiber Drywall Backer Board

Acousti-Board Ultra™ is a cost-effective, sustainable solution for enhancing acoustic performance of wall assemblies. Made from 50% pre-consumer recycled synthetic fiber, this sound-dampening backer adds density and acoustic mass to wall systems—helping reduce airborne sound transmission while staying concealed behind the finished surface.

Tackable, lightweight, and easy to install, Acousti-Board Ultra™ is typically applied directly to studs using finish nails before drywall installation. It’s an ideal choice for projects requiring an unobtrusive sound control layer with sustainability at its core.

Key Benefits:

  • Contributes to greener building practices
  • Enhances STC performance of wall assemblies
  • Economical and efficient
  • Tackable surface for added functionality when used behind stretched fabric as a wall panel or tack board
  • Simple installation with conventional tools

Achieve better acoustics and meet environmental goals—without compromising design intent.
