description
This 3mm thick Robust Detail approved recycled rubber floor soundproofing solution is the easy answer to address impact noise through concrete separating floors in any new construction. Isorubber Top is simply bonded to the top of any concrete floor and has been rigorously tested and approved for installation into any Robust Detail compliant building.
suitable APPLICATIONS
Designed for installation into any new construction that is being built to Robust Detail standards. Isorubber Top does not require specialist installation and can be installed without training. The easy to follow Installation Instructions can be downloaded and give more information. The beauty of this innovative new material is its simplicity and it is almost impossible to install it incorrectly even if it has not been used before. The product is simply glued to the top of any floor wall to wall and provided the floor beneath is RD compliant to E-FC- 9 & 10, a good level of sound insulation will have been achieved for both airborne and impact noise and will comply with the Part E requirements for separating floors. For other non Robust Detail contracts, it can be used over level concrete, hardwood, laminate, ceramic and stone floors for conversions, refurbishments, change of use or new build.
Isorubber Top can not only be applied to most concrete floors to comply with PART E of the building regulations. It can also be used with most types of underfloor heating systems.
helping the planet
Isorubber Top is a blend of reconstituted rubber and cork formed with a polyurethane binder. The granules are sourced from very high grade manufacturing waste (Medical and food production), while the cork is from managed European sources.
Both rubber and cork are natural "tree harvest" materials which are not only sustainable but increase the need for tree plantation and management.
Rubber, however biodegrades slowly and therefore the use of recycled industrial waste into a new long term application provides, in itself, a considerable environmental benefit.
Technical benefits & pERFORMANCE
This mix of organically produced materials offers a number of technical benefits over many of its petrochemical derivative rivals:
a) High KINETIC ENERGY (sound vibration) absorption combined with
negligible
short and long term compressibility;
b)
Compatibility
with the most commonly used floor finishing materials;
c) Resistance to temporary foot traffic exposure;
d) Attractive appearance for "sales" finishing purposes.
