According to the product information, “independent lab tests prove that just one layer of Green Glue Noiseproofing Compound between two layers of drywall or other similar building material dissipates up to 90 percent of noise. Unlike competitive soundproofing products, Green Glue Noiseproofing Compound cuts out the low frequency noises commonly produced by home entertainment and theater systems” (Sweets Network).  The compound costs less than .50¢ per square foot and can be used in new and existing construction.

Green Glue Noiseproofing Compound can be used in any fire rated assembly according to the International Building Code. It does not contribute to mold growth, is low V.O.C., and has almost no odor. The compound can be easily cleaned up while still wet with soap and water.

If you’re inclined to try slathering it betwixt your sheets of drywall, you can purchase Green Glue Noiseproofing Compound by the case (each of which contains 12 tubes) or by the 5 gallon pail. You’ll go through 1 – 3 tubes per 4′ × 8′ sheet of drywall depending on desired performance. The coverage of a pail of Green Glue is around 365 sq. feet.
