Overview

Acoustigard

Bradford Acoustigard Partition Batts and Rolls are manufactured by spinning molten glass into fine wool-like fibres, containing up to 65% recycled glass content. These inorganic, non-combustible fibres are bonded together using a thermosetting resin and the product can be identified by its golden appearance and is supplied un-faced.

Features and Benefits

Acoustigard
