About Polymass®
Extruflex proudly presents Polymass, the ultimate soundproofing PVC solution.
Made from specific polymers, this material behaves like a soft viscoelastic mass capable of absorbing sound waves.
Its unique physico-chemical characteristics allow it to better capture sound waves whose energy is then dissipated in the form of micro-heat by a viscous damping phenomenon.
PolyMass is the thin material of reference for the realization of vertical partitions, floors, false ceilings, hotels, houses, technical rooms, industrial premises, special projects; acoustic screens, machine confinement ...
Our comprehensive research has demonstrated that Polymass is capable of reducing sound levels by an impressive 37 decibels, positioning it as an industry pioneer in effectively mitigating noise in heavy-noise environments. Its remarkable sound-absorbing properties enhance the comfort of various settings, making it a staple in numerous global projects, including applications like stadium wall linings and large construction buildings, where sound containment is crucial.
In addition to its soundproofing capabilities, Polymass excels in thermal insulation, enabling sophisticated temperature management within the designated areas

Frequently asked questions about POLYMASS
What is POLYMASS used for?
POLYMASS is used for sound insulation and acoustic optimization in vertical partitions, floors, false ceilings, hotels, homes, technical rooms, industrial premises, acoustic screens, machine enclosures, and special projects.
How does POLYMASS reduce noise?
POLYMASS behaves like a soft viscoelastic mass that captures sound-wave energy and dissipates it as micro-heat through damping, helping reduce transmitted noise and improve acoustic comfort.
When should I choose POLYMASS?
Choose POLYMASS when a project needs a thin, flexible, durable acoustic material for heavy-noise environments, partitions, machine containment, building interiors, or acoustic screens.
Can POLYMASS be used in walls, floors, and ceilings?
Yes. POLYMASS can be used in vertical partitions, floors, false ceilings, and other building assemblies where sound attenuation is needed without adding a bulky rigid barrier.
Can POLYMASS be used for machine enclosures?
Yes. POLYMASS is suitable for acoustic screens and machine confinement where flexible noise-reduction material is needed near industrial equipment or technical rooms.
Does POLYMASS also provide thermal insulation?
Yes. POLYMASS can provide thermal insulation benefits along with noise insulation, bass attenuation, durability, and impact resistance.
What affects acoustic performance in an installation?
Performance depends on material thickness, surface area, mounting, air gaps, sealing, adjacent materials, sound frequency, and how the full assembly is constructed.
