Verified by manufacturer 5 months ago

Highmat 50

Buildtec Acoustics Variant:

Resilient layer insulation - Under screed/ underfloor impact noise acoustic insulation.

Jump to:
07570 848 410 Website

Application

Resilient layer insulation, Suitable for high impact application areas which have floors with floating screeds or floors with exposed ceiling joists. Can also be used as vibration insulation of plant rooms and within lightweight structures.

Description

Resilient layer acoustic insulation with high thermal and acoustic performance. It's specifically made for floating floor systems.


Available in three thicknesses: 20 mm, 30 mm and 50 mm.


Features and benefits:

  • Noise reduction: Acoustic performance levels are constant over time, with no acoustic degradation under compression.
  • Easy to install: Components are manufactured into durable, easy install panels.
  • Protected with a non-woven, non-stretch, synthetic membrane on one side.
  • Manufactured from recycled materials.
  • Impact sound reduction of up to 34 dB (20 mm), 36 dB (30 mm), or 39 dB (50 mm).
