"We used your Quietfloor and the difference was enormous. It made a huge difference to both parties and helps to keep the peace between us too!"

description.

Our acoustic floor system designed to improve both the impact and airborne noise transfer through floors. The laminated composition provides maximum performance for minimum thickness and combines excellent sound insulation with all the qualities of a good carpet underlay. It is quick and easy to install and is easily cut and shaped. Overall thickness is just 12mm so it minimises the increase in floor level.

This product comprises a recycled 8mm layer of sound absorbing chip foam bonded to a top layer of 5kg mineral loaded soundproofing mat and a base layer of 3Kg mineral loaded soundproofing mat. The base layer of barrier mat seals and damps the sound coming through the floor, the isolated top layer of barrier mat reduces the sound penetration both ways and the sound absorbing chip foam core dramatically absorbs and reduces impact noise transfer.

QuietFloor can also be bonded to concrete floors to meet the new Approved Document E Building Regulations for impact noise and is ideally glued down using our special spray adhesive. We would advise taping over the seams with our PVC Tape

We also advise applying it to the steps and risers of communal stairs to comply with the latest Document E requirements for noise control.

When laid over timber floors airborne insulation up to 43dB DnTw+Ctr can be expected.

When laid over timber floors impact noise down to 39dB LnTw can be expected.

(A carpet will reduce this even further).

When bonded over concrete floors impact improvements in the order of Delta LW 42dB can be expected.
