The CM12 resilient ceiling mount is a structural connection that
reduces airborne and impact noise passing through ceilings and floors.
It is particularly suitable for the discontinuous construction of
floors in apartments, villas & duplexes and any specialised room
that requires high acoustic isolation such as cinemas, auditoriums
and recording studios.
The CM12 comes in 275g/m2 zinc galvanised or stainless steel.

STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE-Matrix Industries CM12
ceiling mounts comply with Australian Standard They are capable
of transferring structural lateral forces
NOISE REDUCTION:CM12 resilient ceiling mounts
were assessed in field tests comparing identical isolated
and non-isolated rooms within the same building. The acoustic consultant’s
report stated, “The vibration
isolation incorporated into the building is working satisfactorily,
reducing vibration and structure borne noise within the rooms.
