Teroform® plastic heavy-duty film

Teroform® plastic weighting film is a modern insulation material that has been specially developed to reduce airborne and structure-borne noise. Manufactured from a thermoplastic (EVA with mineral fillers), the film combines a high mass density with exceptional flexibility. These properties make it an ideal solution for retrofitting acoustic optimisation to all kinds of building components without significantly altering or reinforcing the structure.

The operating principle is remarkably simple and extremely effective: by increasing the mass per unit area, the film significantly improves the sound insulation of lightweight structures such as sheet metal, plasterboard or wood-based materials. At the same time, the viscoelastic material acts as a damping layer against structure-borne noise, thereby effectively minimising disruptive vibrations and rumbling noises. The film really comes into its own in areas where thin-walled components frequently transmit vibrations.

A key advantage of the Teroform® heavy-duty film is its single-sided self-adhesive backing. Thanks to this feature, it can be applied quickly and precisely: simply peel off the protective film, stick it on, and you’re done. Its flexible structure allows for secure application even on uneven or complex-shaped surfaces. This enables installers to save valuable time whilst ensuring a durable, even bond.

Teroform® also impresses in terms of fire safety and temperature resistance. The film is classified as flame-retardant. Furthermore, it remains stable and functional at temperatures of up to +150 °C, meaning it can also be used in technically demanding environments such as mechanical engineering and vehicle manufacturing.

Its areas of application are extremely diverse: in interior fit-out, Teroform® improves the sound insulation of lightweight partition walls, doors or roller shutter boxes. In building services engineering, it reduces noise in ventilation and air-conditioning ducts or in machine casings. In vehicle and mechanical engineering, it is used to dampen the resonance of sheet metal structures, which not only reduces noise levels but also significantly improves comfort for users and operators. Teroform® can even be incorporated as an additional layer in roof and floor applications to reduce impact noise and vibrations.

Thanks to its high flexibility and ease of installation, the film can be used both in standardised rolls and as custom-cut pieces. This makes it a versatile solution that can be seamlessly integrated into a wide variety of projects – from the acoustic optimisation of individual components to large-scale applications in industrial plants or buildings.
