Acoustic Insulation

Sound transfer around a building can be an aggravating problem in many commercial and large-scale residential buildings. Disruptive, unwanted noise in a new build residential development for example can be very detrimental to the quality of life for tenants.

By including a layer of Isocrete Acoustic K foam within the floor, it is possible to reduce the passage of airborne sound. Many high-rise developments in particular have found this to be an effective way to create a quiet ambiance within multi-occupancy buildings.

Isocrete Acoustic K foam exceeds the requirements of Approved Document E of the Building Regulation 2003, which governs resistance to the passage of sound. This regulation sets the level of airborne sound performance at min 45Db and impact sound performance at max 62Db.
