Soundproofing Massachusetts Brownstones and Apartments with HushFrame

Massachusetts combines historic buildings with modern multifamily developments, especially in Boston, Cambridge, and Worcester. Noise is one of the top complaints in urban living, but legacy systems like resilient channel (RC), IsoMax clips, and gypcrete aren’t working consistently for builders.

Problems with Old Methods

RC is easily compromised during installation. One misplaced screw can drastically reduce performance. Gypcrete is costly, adds weight, and slows construction with curing delays. These legacy systems frustrate developers and leave tenants dissatisfied.

The HushFrame® Solution

HushFrame® Decoupling Raft Connectors, designed with the patented Vi-Bridge™ silicone core, isolate vibration before it becomes sound. This creates effective decoupling in walls, ceilings, and floors, ensuring high STC/IIC ratings both in the lab and in the field.
