This isn't something made in China and sold by Lumber Liquidators, is it?

I beleive it is a Canadian product. It is a closed cell slow rising foam insulation.

I have actually specified commercial series of Tiger Foam for sound insulation of a ceiling within a Co-Op parking garage. I would recommend that you speak with a Tiger Foam distributor to determine the correct formula for your requirements.

As always, make sure that you have an experienced vendor install the system. Installation quality will make-or-break the sound attenuation properties.

Bertog – Did it work? Who did you use? Where did you purchase it?

I did speak with the vendor/salesperson regarding the product. He indicated that the product was easy to use… a DIY type project. I am having the handyman in my building do it. He’s very good and knowledgeable, but has never worked with this product or even heard of it until I proposed it as a solution for the elevator noise/vibration that passes through a common wall. He went to the vendor’s website and doesn’t think it will be a problem. (He’s worked with other foam insulation.) He also said to order it online, $145 shipping. He didn't know of any distributors in the metro area.

Has anyone else heard of or used this product.

Thanks
