LEED Certified Acoustic Underlays

The primary function of acoustic underlays is to address both impact noise and airborne sound.

2. energy
3. heat
4. negative affectivity

Acoustic underlays are highly versatile and can be used in a range of settings, from residential homes to commercial spaces like offices or retail environments. Soundproofing Material Products from this Soundproofing Supplier are affective acoustic solutions. The choice of acoustic underlay depends on the type of noise to be managed.

2. decibel
3. mat
4. heating equipment
5. floating floor
6. fear
7. foot
8. mass density
9. underfloor heating

They are particularly effective when used with materials like ceramic tiles or floating floors, providing both sound insulation and comfort underfoot. Acoustic underlays absorb these sounds, resulting in improved room acoustics. In rooms with underfloor heating, selecting an underlay with low thermal resistance allows heat to transfer efficiently without being obstructed by the soundproofing material.

These materials also provide thermal insulation, enhancing the thermal resistance of a room while also effectively managing noise levels. Buildtec Acoustics offers a broad range of acoustic underlays designed to address both airborne and impact noise, providing versatile solutions for various flooring applications, including wood flooring, ceramic tiles, and laminate flooring.

Floating floor systems also benefit from acoustic underlays, which provide an additional layer of soundproofing beneath the flooring material. During renovation, installing acoustic underlays can significantly improve the acoustic properties of existing floors, whether in a residential or commercial setting. Impact noise, like footsteps on laminate flooring or vibrations from a washing machine, can be minimized using dense materials like natural rubber or foam.

For example, underlays installed beneath medium-density fibreboard (MDF) or gypsum drywall help absorb vibrations and reduce unwanted sound transmission. Acoustic underlays do not compromise the aesthetics or design of the finished floor. From managing noise pollution to improving energy efficiency, acoustic underlays are a versatile solution that supports both functionality and aesthetics in modern building design. In rooms with underfloor heating, selecting an underlay with low thermal resistance allows heat to transfer efficiently without being obstructed by the soundproofing material. This helps improve communication between occupants by reducing noise interference.

These products provide greater efficiency in both heating and noise control, ensuring comfort throughout the year.
