M.A.D. PRO
Aluminized bituminous sheet for acoustic insulation.
Product variations:
EPD S-P-01923
MAD PRO is a bituminous acoustic sheet reinforced with mineral loads and an aluminized coating. Its mass provides excellent acoustic insulation, acting as an anti-resonant element on one side, as a plastic element between rigid elements, or as a membrane resonator between spring elements. Additionally, it is characterized by its excellent fire performance (bs1d0), functioning as a vapor barrier and as a thermal reflector in cavities.
Instruction for Use
Preliminary OperationsIn systems between panels: Following the instructions and recommendations of the manufacturers of plasterboard, the framework will be fixed to the substrate, including sealing strips.
On the ceiling, first, the mechanical resistance of the damper system and the framework must be checked.
Next, the first plasterboard sheet is fixed to the supporting structure using self-tapping screws.
Ensure that this sheet is dry, clean, and free from foreign bodies. In direct systems: Following the instructions of the plasterboard manufacturers, it is recommended to install sealing strips around the perimeter of the framework.
Install directly with staples, contact adhesive, or using self-adhesive (in the AA version).
Lift the compound (board + membrane) and fix directly to the supporting structure using plasterboard fixing systems.
Avoid joints greater than 1 mm between sheets. Installation of Danosa Acoustic Membrane M.A.D. PRO:Due to its good fire reaction performance, the membrane can be installed directly after perforated and/or decorative solutions.For typical plaster partition solutions, the following points are recommended:On walls
Start by cutting full pieces of M.A.D. PRO to the same height as the partition. Offcuts will be used for smaller sections or finishing.
It can be applied with mechanical fixing systems or with bonding systems.
A. Mechanical Fixing
Once the piece is placed squarely with the surfaces, one person will hold it at the top, while another begins stapling the top. Then, one person releases and the other continues applying staples.
To maintain the continuity of the membrane, the M.A.D. PRO has a rebate on the edges that must be aligned.
The second plasterboard sheet is screwed to the supporting structure using self-tapping screws.
It is important to stagger the joints with the first sheet to avoid leaks. B. Adhesive
A layer of contact adhesive Glue-Dan Acustic 1 is applied to the first plasterboard sheet using a short-pile roller. The recommended coverage for perfect adhesion is 125 g/m².
In the same way, and on a clean surface where the membrane has been placed, apply another layer of adhesive with the same coverage to the M.A.D. PRO.
Prepare the pieces and, after 15 minutes, begin installing the membrane.
Place the piece squarely with the surfaces and start adhering it from the top and from the joint with another membrane.
Press down to ensure there are no air pockets.

Screw the second plasterboard sheet to the supporting structure using self-tapping screws.
It is important to stagger the joints with the first sheet to avoid leaks.
The total adhesive coverage per square meter is 250 g.On the ceiling
Start by cutting M.A.D. PRO pieces transversely to the roll at a distance of 1.2 m. This results in pieces of 1 x 1.2 m². Offcuts will be used for smaller sections or finishing.
It can be applied with mechanical fixing systems or with bonding systems following the same steps as described for walls.
It is possible to work directly on the ceiling by fixing the membrane to the first plasterboard sheet or, alternatively, work on the floor by applying the membrane to the second sheet.
In this latter case, after fixing the membrane with staples or adhesive, the membrane and second sheet are lifted using a mechanical lift.
This assembly is screwed to the primary-secondary ceiling structure using self-tapping screws.
