Acoustic screeded flooring system.
A total screeded flooring solution which is the only system of its kind to have achieved Robust Detail, E-FT-4. This provides the developer with the confidence and assurance of achieving a performance standard over and above Part E of the Building Regulations (E&W).
The floating floor treatment is installed on a Finnjoist (engineered i-beam) floor construction enabling an easier and lighter construction than a beam and block floor, with no requirement for cranes/ long reach forklifts. Using a self-levelling Gyvlon screed, the SoundBar System significantly improves sound performance while retaining a solid floor feel, and is ideal for use with under floor heating systems and any floor finish.
The SoundBar System provides a shallow, high quality floor, which has better acoustic performance than a traditional timber floor.
