Underscreed: High impact noise insulation in flooring screed applications

A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study conducted by Itecons confirms that Acousticork by Amorim U36 and U38 underscreeds have a negative carbon balance

An underscreed is a resilient sublayer applied on the floor, between the structural slab and the screed, during the construction process. The placement of underscreed does not restrict the choice for the final flooring and can be used with wood, ceramic, laminated or resilient (LVT) floors. It is also compatible with f…

To meet the high standards of acoustic performance expected in the project of the new Four Seasons building in Bangkok, a cork underscreed with recycled rubber was applied to the entire area of the hotel, including common areas. The flooring was then finished with laminated wood and ceramic material.

Applied to the floor between the structural slab and the screed during the construction process, an underscreed significantly reduces the propagation of impact noise through the structural elements of the building and improves its sound insulation. In addition, by helping to limit heat losses, it also has an influence…

Non-pre-attached foil barrier

U38 is designed for buildings with stringent acoustic requirements, ensuring performance and sustainability.

Multi-purpose buildings such as Kamienica Nova II, which houses both apartments and a supermarket, present a major challenge in terms of isolation, since it is necessary to control airborne as well as impact noise.
