The use of a pre-attached underlayment as part of a flooring system acts like the traditional underlay, preventing the transmission of mechanical energy through the slab. A pre-attached underlayment on the reverse dulls impact noise and improves the laying characteristics of the flooring.

Sound Control Underlayments and the Flooring products installed contribute almost nothing to the STC rating of a flooring assembly. The mass of the structure is what contributes to the STC value. A 6” solid concrete slab, for example, has an STC rating of about 52. STC ratings in the 60’s or 70’s on Sound Control Under…

The flooring market is a highly competitive one that is oriented towards solutions and developments that contribute to low maintenance costs and that are cost effective and eco friendly without forsaking the design. If, on the one hand, cork solutions provide a positive response to such demands, on the other hand, it i…

These different features within the same piece allow us to obtain raw materials that are completely different from each other in their shape and characteristics through grinding, stratification and granulometric separation processes.The softest and most resilient layer is mainly used as "pre-altached underlayment", whi…
