440 SoundBarrier® On NBC's Today Show
NBC Today Show's Natalie Morales and "Mr. Fix-It," Lou Manfredini, flank our 440 SoundBarrier® display as Manfredini says that Homasote® controls sound through floors and walls.
440 SoundBarrier® with hardwood finish flooring was featured in the segment targeting options for controlling residential noise through floors and walls.
A former Chicago-area developer, Manfredini said he used Homasote® "when I was building houses." 440 SoundBarrier, as new generations of builders learned during a recent spike in OSB prices, is a premium exterior vertical sheathing because of its permeability, structural capabilities and other properties. See ICC-ES ESR-1374.

Guess What Happened When Untreated Homasote® 440 SoundBarrier®
Was Left Outside For Two Full Years, 755 Days?
On April 1, 2006, after two years of braving hurricanes to thunderstorms an untreated assembly of our 440 SoundBarrier® was taken disassembled and the panels were just as strong as they day they were erected, proof that structural Homasote® holds up in conditions more extreme than any floor of wall assembly can present. That's why it is approved to meet international building code (ICC-ES ESR-1374). See the assembly over the years at http://www.homasote.com/strength.
