Buildtec Acoustics offers underlays made from environmentally friendly materials, such as cork, recycled crumb rubber, and natural wool. Looking to dampen noise in your office then use acoustic underlay under your floor. Acoustic underlays are compatible with a range of flooring materials, including tiles, carpet, and wood. Acoustic underlays do not compromise the aesthetics and design of the finished floor.
They are installed beneath the visible flooring material, meaning that the desired flooring-whether it is elegant hardwood, practical laminate, or cozy carpet-remains unchanged. The choice of acoustic underlay depends on the type of noise that needs to be managed.
Hard surfaces, such as hardwood and laminate, often amplify sounds like footsteps, creating unwanted echo and reverberation. Acoustic underlay is an effective solution for managing noise control in residential and commercial environments.
This process involves the transformation of sound energy into heat, which then dissipates harmlessly. By choosing the right product for the specific noise control requirement, homeowners and businesses can create a quieter, more comfortable atmosphere.
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. These options support environmentalism by reducing the need for virgin materials and lowering overall pollution. These products provide greater efficiency in both heating and noise control, ensuring comfort throughout the year.
Floating floor systems also benefit from acoustic underlays, which provide an extra layer of soundproofing beneath the flooring material. By utilizing high-density materials like crumb rubber and cork, acoustic underlays offer efficient noise control, reducing the impact of noise on people in adjacent rooms or units.
These underlays not only contribute to noise reduction but also enhance the thermal conductivity of the flooring, supporting efficient heat transfer in rooms. These products ensure enhanced efficiency in both heating and noise control, providing comfort throughout the year.
Before installing an acoustic underlay, it is important to ensure that the subfloor-whether concrete, particle board, or cement-is clean, level, and dry. Some underlays are certified by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards, supporting sustainable building practices.

By reducing both airborne and impact noise, these underlays contribute to creating a peaceful environment, whether in the home, office, or commercial settings. Underlays help isolate vibrations, preventing them from being transmitted through the building structure and reducing their impact on adjacent rooms or units. The incorporation of acoustic underlays during renovation projects also helps meet building insulation standards and ensures compliance with soundproofing regulations, providing peace of mind to homeowners and builders alike.
With a wide range of materials, including cork, foam, natural rubber, and recycled fibers, Buildtec Acoustics ensures that there is an environmentally friendly and efficient product to suit every need. The primary function of acoustic underlays is to manage both impact noise and airborne sound.
Additionally, these materials are low in volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, contributing to a healthier indoor environment. They are particularly effective when used with materials like ceramic tiles or floating floors, providing both sound insulation and comfort underfoot.
They are effective when used with materials like ceramic tiles or floating floors, enhancing both sound insulation and comfort underfoot.
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. Installing an acoustic underlay beneath carpets in office spaces can help mitigate foot traffic noise and other disturbances, improving the room's dynamics. By utilizing high-density materials like crumb rubber and cork, acoustic underlays efficiently control noise, reducing its impact on people in adjacent rooms or units.
Whether in a single-family detached home or a semi-detached house, installing acoustic underlay ensures that everyday activities do not negatively affect others. 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.
Airborne noise, such as music or conversations, can be reduced by selecting underlays with higher sound transmission class ratings. Buildtec Acoustics offers underlays made from environmentally friendly materials, such as cork, recycled crumb rubber, and natural wool.
The materials used in acoustic underlays, such as foam, cork, and natural rubber, are effective in reducing vibrations and controlling sound. Acoustic underlays made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or cork are ideal choices, as they balance both thermal insulation and soundproofing requirements.
Before installing an acoustic underlay, it is important to ensure that the subfloor-whether concrete, particle board, or cement-is clean, level, and dry. Buildtec Acoustics offers a variety of acoustic underlays designed to address both airborne and impact noise, providing a versatile solution for diverse flooring applications, including wood flooring, ceramic tiles, and laminate flooring. The materials used in acoustic underlays, such as foam, cork, and natural rubber, are highly effective at reducing vibrations and controlling noise.
Underlays help isolate vibrations, preventing them from being transmitted through the building structure and reducing their impact on adjacent rooms or units. This allows consumers to achieve their preferred aesthetics without sacrificing soundproofing performance.
These underlays not only help reduce noise but also enhance thermal conductivity, supporting efficient heat transfer within the room. The main purpose of acoustic underlays is to handle both impact noise and airborne sound.
This helps improve communication between occupants by reducing noise interference. This allows consumers to achieve their preferred aesthetics without sacrificing soundproofing performance.
When considering soundproofing solutions, acoustic underlays provide an effective means to reduce noise pollution, improve room acoustics, and create a comfortable environment. These underlays act as a cushion that helps reduce the transmission of vibrations and sound through the floor. These products ensure enhanced efficiency in both heating and noise control, providing comfort throughout the year.
Acoustic underlays made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or cork are ideal choices, as they balance both thermal insulation and soundproofing requirements. 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. Impact noise occurs from activities like walking, moving furniture, or using appliances such as washing machines, while airborne noise includes sounds like conversations, music, and television.
The compatibility with different floor finishes makes acoustic underlays an essential component of modern flooring design, helping to create a space that is both visually appealing and acoustically comfortable. Underlays help to isolate vibrations, preventing them from being transmitted through the building structure and reducing their impact on adjacent rooms or units.
Buildtec Acoustics provides underlays with specific properties to address either airborne or impact noise. 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.
These underlays contribute to noise reduction and enhance thermal conductivity, promoting efficient heat transfer in the room. Furthermore, these materials are low in volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, ensuring a healthier indoor environment.
