Finished Floor Sound Soft

This is a product developed in order to attenuate impact noise when used under finished flooring such as LVT, vinyl, laminates and wood. It offers greater stability and durability for the cover, due to the lack of deformation.

Aubicon - Mantas Acústicas e Pisos para Absorção de Impacto

Advantages

Does not deform
Reduces environment reverberation as well as impact noises to lower flooring
Maintains efficiency in the long term


  • CHARACTERISTICS

    COMPOSITION: Pre-fabricated recycled tire granule mat binded with polyurethane
    THICKNESS: 3 and 5mm
    DENSITIES: 750 and 900Kg/m3
    ROLLS: 1m x 10m

  • INSTALLATION

    • Before installing, the place must be clean, regular and free from loose objects.
    • Measure the site and cut the underlayment in the exact sizes with the help of a stylet.
    • Underlayment shall be applied from the top and without spacing. For loose and floating flooring, there is no need to glue. For glued flooring, use acrylic or polyurethane glue.
    • Apply cover on the underlayment respecting technical manuals for each type of finish. For glued flooring, respect the cure time for each type of glue.

  • DURABILITY

    Sound Soft Acoustic Underlayments have the advantage of presenting acoustic comfort and durability for the useful life of the work. This product has low compressibility and basically returns to its original thickness even when submitted to loads of up to 20 kN/m2. It is permanently elastic and possesses a high resilience capacity, allowing for maximum loads of 2500 kg/m2 without affecting performance.

    Acoustic Mats

    The compression fluency test analyses material behavior in the long term when compressed by a specific weight. There was a loss of 7% in thickness under a 10 kPa load. This result ensures that the flooring and applied cover do not suffer damages during the useful life of the work due to system movements. The material was also tested in order to verify resistance to mediums with high alkaline content such as concrete. One may observe that the product is alkali-resistant and, therefore, inert to alkaline attack.

    The material was also tested to identify their resistance to high alkalinity media content such as concrete. It can be seen that the product is alkali-resistant and hence an inert material to alkaline attack.
