Types of Acoustic Underlayments for Vinyl & Carpet Floors:
Jumpax® For Linoleum, VCT, Sheet Vinyl & Vinyl Plank Flooring
Jumpax is a free floating, dry leveling, sound reducing, time and money saving fast track underlay system. Jumpax is capable of creating a super smooth joint less surface for direct glue down of resilient floor coverings such as linoleum, sheet vinyl, VCT, LVT, vinyl plank, cork floors and PSA backed carpets.
Jumpax underlay is suitable for commercial and residential use. The dual underlayment system consists of a composed based board and a calibrated top board and is the best underlay system in terms of leveling and impact sound reduction.
Jumpax systems have been installed in universities, hospitals, condominiums, apartments, hotels and resorts and commercial places all over the world. In addition, it has been installed in commercial and public buildings to prevent high-traffic passages on the floors above from intruding conference, office and meeting areas.
Jumpax can easily be installed over concrete, gypsum topping or APA plywood on existing floors, new construction or renovations.
ProBase® Rubber Underlayment For Engineered Hardwood & Laminate
Made from recycled rubber tires, ProBase acoustic underlayments can be installed under floated or double glued engineered hardwood, laminate or tile/stone flooring for excellent noise control.
ProBase is the perfect product to use in lightweight wood frame construction due to its weight & mass. ProBase underlayment is available in stocked thickness of 3mm, 5mm, 6mm, 10mm & 12mm and offers excellent noise control for both airborne noise reduction & impact isolation.
Superfloor® Underlayment for Carpets
SuperFloor acoustical carpet underlayment is a premium carpet pad designed for use under carpet and carpet tiles. Superfloor is different than any other carpet pad in the market today, and will maintain its integrity year after year.
Most carpet pads are made from foam or rubber and deteriorate very fast causing wear paths and wear spots in the carpet in areas of high traffic. SuperFloor is offered in glue down or traditional carpet tack installation and are designed to prolong the life of your carpet, while providing superior sound ratings for impact foot traffic noise.
Superfloor carpet pad underlayment is a 100% natural wood product made from recycled materials and can be installed under commercial carpet and is perfect for schools, classrooms and dormitories.
Paladin® For Hardwood & Laminate
Paladin is a thin acoustic flooring underlayment that is only 4mm thick and is available in packages of 130 sf. Paladin underlayment is economically priced and is made from FSC certified compressed wood fibers that offers better acoustical performance over similar priced foams, felts, rubber or natural cork underlayments.
Paladin Floor underlayment is lightweight and easily installed under floated laminate engineered hardwood flooring.
Soundeater® For Hardwood Floors
Soundeater underlayment for nail down hardwood is the most recent development in the field of sound reducing sub-flooring designed for 3/4" solid and 14-15mm semi-solid hardwood flooring.
Soundeater combines a specially designed tongue and groove impact absorbing soft board with a mating wooden profile. The profile is placed free from the substrate between the soft boards every 10 1/2". The top side of the profile will accept a 1 1/2" flooring nail on a 45 degree angle through 3/4" hardwood without touching the sub floor. The result is a totally free floating hardwood floor.
