Decoupling a Metal Stud frame wall
To attach a Metal Stud frame wall we offer the Metal Stud Damper vibration dampers. With these dampers you can install a Metal Stud frame wall without a rigid fixation to the building. To ensure a decoupled connection with the floor, walls and ceiling you can use the Polypress Strips. These strips isolate the frame and reduces impact noise from and to the metal stud frame.

How to soundproof a metal stud frame wall
The soundproofing properties of your wall depends not only on decoupling but also on the mass of the wall. You most likely are going to use a layer of plasterboard to close up the wall. This is not enough to soundproof the wall. Adding mass will. Therefor, use a double layer of plasterboard with a layer of Isomat KE (14 kg/m²) in between, this will soundproof your wall. Mass = Soundproofing!
