Buildtec Acoustics provides underlays with specific properties to handle either airborne or impact noise. Buildtec Acoustics provides underlays with specific properties that address either airborne or impact noise. They are particularly effective when used with materials like ceramic tiles or floating floors, enhancing both sound insulation and comfort underfoot.
This helps improve communication between occupants by reducing noise interference. Acoustic underlays help absorb these sounds, contributing to improved room acoustics.
Installing an acoustic underlay beneath carpets in office spaces can help mitigate foot traffic noise and other disturbances, improving the room's dynamics. Acoustic underlays made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or cork are ideal choices, as they balance both thermal insulation and soundproofing requirements. Looking to dampen noise in your office then use acoustic underlay under your floor.
They are effective when used with materials like ceramic tiles or floating floors, enhancing both sound insulation and comfort underfoot. With a range of materials, including cork, foam, natural rubber, and recycled fibers, Buildtec Acoustics ensures that there is an environmentally friendly and efficient product for every need.
Acoustic underlays absorb these sounds, resulting in improved room acoustics. Acoustic underlay is a specialized material that plays a critical role in noise control within residential and commercial spaces. Acoustic underlays are versatile and can be used in a range of settings, from residential homes to commercial spaces like offices or retail environments.
Acoustic underlays do not compromise the aesthetics or design of the finished floor. Most underlays come in sheets or rolls and can be cut to size using simple tools like a utility knife.
In residential buildings, whether in a semi-detached house or an apartment, acoustic underlays are commonly installed under laminate flooring, hardwood, or carpets to reduce noise transmission through walls, ceilings, and stairs. For instance, Tecsound underlays are commonly used beneath concrete or screed subfloors, adding an additional layer of soundproofing that is effective against vibration and noise.
By choosing the appropriate product for the specific noise control requirement, homeowners and businesses can create a quieter, more comfortable environment. Impact noise results from vibrations caused by activities like footsteps, moving furniture, or the operation of appliances like washing machines.

They are particularly effective when used with materials like ceramic tiles or floating floors, providing both sound insulation and comfort underfoot. Installing acoustic underlays beneath carpets in office spaces helps mitigate foot traffic noise and other disturbances, improving room dynamics. Buildtec Acoustics offers underlays made from environmentally friendly materials, such as cork, recycled crumb rubber, and natural wool.
The compatibility with different floor finishes makes acoustic underlays an essential component of modern flooring design, creating a space that is both visually appealing and acoustically comfortable. In rooms with underfloor heating, selecting an underlay with low thermal resistance ensures that heat transfers efficiently without being obstructed by the soundproofing material.
These options support environmentalism by reducing reliance on virgin materials and lowering overall pollution. Impact insulation class This allows consumers to achieve their preferred aesthetics without sacrificing soundproofing performance.
Acoustic underlays are valuable for renovation projects as well. Most underlays come in sheet or roll form and can be cut to size with simple tools like a utility knife.
Acoustic underlays such as those made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or cork are ideal choices, as they balance both thermal insulation and soundproofing requirements. Including acoustic underlays in renovation projects also helps ensure compliance with building insulation standards and soundproofing regulations, providing peace of mind for homeowners and builders alike.
By selecting the right product for the specific noise control requirement, homeowners and businesses can create a quieter, more comfortable atmosphere. The choice of acoustic underlay depends on the type of noise that needs to be managed. By reducing both airborne and impact noise, these underlays contribute to creating a peaceful environment, whether in the home, office, or commercial spaces.
For example, underlays used beneath medium-density fibreboard (MDF) or gypsum drywall can help absorb vibrations and reduce the transmission of unwanted sound. These underlays not only contribute to noise reduction but also enhance the thermal conductivity of the flooring, supporting efficient heat transfer in rooms.
Impact noise, such as footsteps on laminate flooring or vibrations from a washing machine, can be minimized using dense materials like natural rubber or foam. Buildtec Acoustics offers a wide range of acoustic underlays that are specifically designed to address both airborne and impact noise, making them ideal for a variety of flooring applications such as wood flooring, ceramic tiles, and laminate flooring.
For example, underlays installed beneath medium-density fibreboard (MDF) or gypsum drywall can help absorb vibrations and reduce unwanted sound transmission. Additionally, these materials are low in volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, contributing to a healthier indoor environment. In residential buildings, whether in a semi-detached house or an apartment, acoustic underlays are commonly installed under laminate flooring, hardwood, or carpets to reduce noise transmission through walls, ceilings, and stairs.
Impact noise, such as footsteps on laminate flooring or vibrations from appliances, can be minimized using dense materials like natural rubber or foam. Whether the flooring type is laminate, ceramic, or hardwood, Buildtec Acoustics provides underlays that are specifically designed to work with the chosen material.
By using high-density materials like crumb rubber and cork, acoustic underlays efficiently control noise, reducing its impact on people in adjacent rooms or units. By utilizing high-density materials like crumb rubber and cork, acoustic underlays effectively control noise, reducing its impact on people in adjacent rooms or units.
The compatibility with different floor finishes makes acoustic underlays an essential component in modern flooring design, helping to create a space that is both visually appealing and acoustically comfortable. This process involves the transformation of sound energy into heat, which then dissipates harmlessly. They are installed beneath the visible flooring material, meaning that the desired flooring-whether it is elegant hardwood, practical laminate, or cozy carpet-remains unaltered.
By using high mass density materials such as crumb rubber and cork, acoustic underlays provide efficient energy use through effective noise control, reducing the impact of noise on people in adjacent rooms or units. Airborne noise, such as music or conversations, can be reduced by choosing underlays with higher sound transmission class ratings.
They are installed beneath the visible flooring material, meaning that the desired flooring-whether elegant hardwood, practical laminate, or cozy carpet-remains unchanged. Including acoustic underlays in renovation projects also helps ensure compliance with building insulation standards and soundproofing regulations, providing peace of mind for homeowners and builders.
Airborne noise includes sounds like conversations, music, and television. For example, underlays installed beneath medium-density fibreboard (MDF) or gypsum drywall can help absorb vibrations and reduce unwanted sound transmission.
Yes, certain acoustic underlays are designed to be used with underfloor heating systems. These underlays have low thermal resistance, allowing efficient heat transfer while also providing noise reduction. It is important to choose the right type of underlay for compatibility with underfloor heating.
Acoustic underlay can be installed beneath most types of flooring, including laminate, wood, and tiles. The subfloor should be clean, level, and dry before installation. The underlay is typically rolled out and cut to size, with seams tightly butted together. It can be secured with adhesive or double-sided tape if needed.
Acoustic underlays are an excellent choice for renovation projects as they can easily be installed under new flooring to improve noise insulation. They help bring older buildings up to modern soundproofing standards, making them more comfortable for occupants.
