Why this product
This is not “ordinary adhesive foam”, but an acoustic insulation strip made of glass fibre / glass wool designed for use within an acoustic plasterboard wall system. The manufacturer states that it is inserted between the stud and the base-layer lining board to improve the sound insulation of the wall.
