General Notes
Use normal care and precaution when working with Serious Materials products:
• QuietRock panels may be heavy (some are no heavier than standard drywall, other models are
heavier). Make sure that there are sufficient workers to handle the product, especially when
applying to a ceiling. DO NOT HANDLE MORE LOAD THAN YOU ARE COMFORTABLE WITH, OR
NO MORE THAN LOCAL REGULATIONS ALLOW.
• Lift the panels using OSHA guidelines, e.g. do not bend over and lift using back muscles; instead
use the leg muscles.
• QuietRock contains no materials more hazardous than standard drywall. Dispose of excess Quiet-
Rock in the same responsible manner as you would any building material. For recycling purposes,
note that some models contain metal and vinyl, so alert the recycler of those materials.
