AFICO Quiet Liner Board

AFICO Quiet Liner Board is a high-performance acoustical and thermal insulation board manufactured from fine, stable, and uniformly textured inorganic glass fibers bonded together with a non-water-soluble, fire-retardant, thermosetting, and heat-resistant resin. It is faced with a strong, dimensionally stable Black Woven Glass Fiber Fabric (WGF), making it suitable for duct lining, air handling equipment, plenums, and acoustic treatment applications. Designed for excellent sound absorption and thermal insulation, it provides a clean black finish, reliable durability, and strong performance in HVAC and building acoustic systems.
