  • Superb performance backed by laboratory testing

  • Highly-engineered German acoustic boards with CE Mark

  • Can be used for walls and ceilings

These 1200mm x 800mm boards are a superior performance alternative to one of the layers of standard acoustic plasterboard.


The 10mm Phonestar SBX boards is the slim line cousin of the 15mm Phonestar Sbx board it is designed as a high performance addition to all soundproofing systems. It is used to upgrade wall and ceiling soundproofing systems as an alternative to one of the layers of plasterboard.


10mm SBx boards can be used for soundproofing walls and ceilings whether constructed from timber, steel or solid substrate, in new builds, conversions, remedial and refurbishment projects.

SBx boards are an excellent product designed to reduce the transmission of impact and airborne sound between two spaces. The product is our number one choice when trying to improve the soundproofing from noisy neighbours next door or upstairs.

Product Application

SBx Board main applications are in the following:

  • Soundproofing ceilings
  • Soundproofing separating walls
  • Soundproofing party walls
  • Soundproofing music, cinema and entertainment rooms



SBx Boards are a cross fluted engineered card and hardboard carcass containing a finely mixed and compacted loose quartz sand mixture, which exhibits high mass and density with unique self-decoupling properties.

SBx Boards are a natural product which are breathable, pollutant free and odourless, whilst they are only 10mm thick saving space versus a standard 12.5mm plasterboard. They are easy to cut and install with simple butt joints and does not require flanking strips. This makes for a speedy installation time and low cost of labour, or can easily be completed yourself.

SBx boards offer acoustic insulation which also adds thermal mass to lightweight structures.

Sound insulation performance actually improves by 3dB when a hard surface is fitted on to it and it supports 5kN loading.

This product can be used to very effectively soundproof a wall or ceiling. Ideally it should be used in combination with 60kg/m3 acoustic mineral wool.

Instructions for use

The SBX board is used in place of a 12.5mm acoustic plasterboard. The product can be screwed in the same way as plasterboard. Cutting and sealing is done in the same way on both 10mm and 15mm SBx boards.

The boards are labelled with a particular side to be facing outwards. This ensures the product lies consistently from board to board.

Cutting SBx Boards to size

  • Ensure careful handling to minimise filler spillage – otherwise the final performance may be compromised
  • Only cut the SBx boards while it is laid flat
  • Use a straight edge for guidance
  • Cut with a jigsaw, hand saw, Stanley knife or circular saw (ceramic tile tungsten carbide grit jigsaw blade, or general purpose tungsten carbide fine tooth circular saw blade, for longevity)
  • Immediately seal all cut edges with PhoneStar SBx Tape while holding the board upright - See below for more details on using SBx Tape
