ZIPS DB
Soundproofing Triplex
ZIPS DB is a special three-layer material consisting of two components: two weighted moisture-resistant gypsum plasterboards (GVLVU) and a layer of special vibroacoustic sealant.
It significantly improves the efficiency of sound insulation structures and is used for sheathing of frame partitions, claddings, and suspended ceilings.
Unrivaled sound isolation ability of partitions – up to 68 dB!
The acoustic efficiency of ZIPS DB is achieved due to two layers of 8 mm (0.3 in) GVLVU sheets acoustically separated from each other with special vibroacoustic sealant.
Due to elastic connection between the separated rigid layers, the acoustic triplex shows higher sound isolation ability in the operating frequency range compared to plasterboard of equal surface density.
Combination of ZIPS DB acoustic triplex and plasterboard layer has better efficiency than two plasterboard layers.
Eco-friendliness
Only eco-friendly materials and components are used for production of ZIPS DB panels.
The main component of the panels is GVLVU, which is a homogeneous material consisting of a mixture of gypsum binder and cellulose fibers that is evenly distributed throughout the sheet.
A special vibroacoustic sealant separating the GVLVU layer contains no harmful chemicals.
More Than 25 Years of Stable Vibroacoustic Properties
The ZIPS DB acoustic triplex retains its vibroacoustic properties throughout the entire period of operation.
ZIPS DB is made from time-tested materials:
- GVLVU is a reliable and stable material that retains its characteristics even after 20 years of use, which has been verified by numerous measurements at existing facilities;
- The sealant elastic layer does not crack or peel off over time, retaining elasticity even under load.
Features
ZIPS DB acoustic triplex is better in acoustic efficiency than plasterboard, not to mention other, very expensive, operationally inconvenient and combustible materials.
Its thickness is 16.5 mm (0.6 in), which is only 5 mm (0.2 in) thicker than standard plasterboards. ZIP DB can easily be mounted on standard frame structures.
ZIPS DB belongs to the group of low-flammable and flash-resistant materials.

Maintenance info
Composition and description
Two weighted moisture-resistant gypsum plasterboards (GVLVU) with a thickness of 8 mm (0.3 in), interconnected by an elastic and resilient layer of special sealant.
Storage
Soundline-dB acoustic triplex should be stored horizontally on pallets at a height of not more than three layers in premises with dry and normal humidity away from any precipitation and groundwater.
Features of the material usage
ZIPS DB acoustic triplex is used for sound-insulating sheathing of frame partitions, claddings, and suspended ceilings.
ZIPS DB acoustic triplex sheets are mounted on the metal frame of the partition, cladding, or suspended ceiling using self-drilling for gypsum plasterboards, and then joints are sheathed with a finishing layer of plasterboards with overlap.
