Soundproofing a floor is imperative in minimising noise transmission between different levels of a building, thereby enhancing overall comfort, privacy, and productivity. Regardless of the source of noise, whether it be from neighbouring properties, busy office spaces, or industrial environments, effective floor soundproofing solutions play a key role. At DECIBEL, we provide a diverse range of acoustic flooring products meticulously designed to address your specific soundproofing requirements.

Understanding Floor Soundproofing

When it comes to floor soundproofing, various materials and techniques can be employed to effectively block sound waves and prevent noise from passing through floors. By employing these methods, it is possible to significantly reduce both airborne noise, which includes sounds like conversations and music, as well as impact noise, which involves sounds such as footsteps and moving furniture.

Benefits of Floor Soundproofing

• Noise Reduction: Minimise the transmission of unwanted noise between floors.
• Enhanced Privacy: Create private spaces by preventing sound from travelling between rooms or floors.
• Comfort and Productivity: Reduce distractions and create a peaceful environment, ideal for both residential and commercial spaces.

Types of Acoustic Flooring Products

F - MUTE SYSTEM™ 23

The F - MUTE SYSTEM™ 23 provides highly effective soundproofing for floors, addressing both impact and airborne noise. It combines dense board and elastic absorptive layers for superior sound insulation. Traditional flooring systems often underperform in reducing both airborne and impact sounds due to their low-density materials and rigid attachment to floor joists, which can create reverberant noise.

DECIBEL's F - MUTE SYSTEM™ 23 features an extremely dense fibre board known for its acoustic insulation performance, backed with a non-flammable and non-compressible acoustic foam to isolate impact noise from the sub-floor. This system exceeds Part E Building Regulations, making it ideal for new builds, building conversions, and DIY projects. It is suitable for installation over any existing floor structure, including reinforced concrete, steel, wooden, laminate, or parquet floors. Once laid, it can be overlayed with timber, engineered board, carpets, lino, etc.

Suitable for:

• Residential premises
• Public premises
• Industrial buildings
• Installation over various floor structures including tiles and parquet flooring

F-Roll

The F-Roll system is a thin-layered noise-reduction solution designed for floor soundproofing insulation, particularly effective against impact noise. It can be installed on any flat surface, including concrete, steel, and timber, as well as over existing floor finishes like ceramic and porcelain tiles, parquet, or engineered wood floors. The top surface accepts adhesive for attaching floor tiles or other finishes.

Suitable for:

• Residential premises
• Public premises
• Industrial buildings
• Installation over reinforced concrete, metal, timber floors, and tiles or parquet floors

DPACT

DPACT is a floor soundproofing membrane made from closed-cell crosslinked polyethylene. It provides highly effective noise insulation with minimal loss of material thickness under load. This lightweight, waterproof, and heat-insulating membrane comes in 5 mm and 10 mm thicknesses, offering acoustic noise indices of ΔLw = 35 dB and ΔLw = 37 dB respectively.

Suitable for:

• Installation directly on the slab under the concrete layer
• Continuation on walls for at least 10 cm to ensure integrity during installation

DFON

DFON is a thin-layer impact noise reduction membrane with highly effective sound insulation properties due to its bitumen layer. It is applied under the concrete layer on the floor, providing sound insulation against impact noise with an acoustic index of ΔLw = 26 dB. This waterproof membrane is easy to install and requires the bitumen layer to be placed upwards during installation.

Suitable for:

• Installation directly on the slab under the concrete layer
• Continuation on walls for at least 10 cm

Noise Insulation Mat ROLL R5

The Roll series products, made from recycled SBR rubber, offer high resistance and elasticity, making them excellent insulators against impact noise under all floors. These mats adhere well to substrates and are easy to install with adhesive tape, providing high precision and efficiency.

Suitable for:

• Impact noise insulation under all floors
• Floors in industrial establishments
• Floor slabs with floating screed
• Floors with underfloor heating

Sylpro

Sylpro is a floor sound insulation mat designed for floating floors, reducing impact noise from walking, stamping, or moving objects. Made from high-density SBR rubber, Sylpro offers exceptional flexibility and dynamic stiffness, making it ideal for residential and office buildings.

Suitable for:

• Floors in residential premises
• Floors in industrial establishments
• Floors with underfloor heating
• Floating floors

SylCer

SylCer is an acoustic underlay for ceramic floor tiles, ideal for improving sound insulation during floor restoration. Made from high-density SBR and EPDM recycled rubber, it insulates impact noise effectively and can be applied directly on existing floors without removal.

Suitable for:

• Installation on existing floors in residential premises
• Recovering traditional or any type of wooden flooring
• Floors with underfloor heating

Sylwood

Sylwood is a sound insulation underlay for wood flooring, designed to meet all sound insulation requirements for existing buildings. Made from high-density rubber and cork granules, Sylwood reduces structural noise from walking, making it suitable for both new installations and the refurbishment of wooden floors.

Suitable for:

• Installation on existing floors in residential premises
• Recovering traditional or any type of wooden flooring
• Floors with underfloor heating
