Acoustic Systems
To identify the most appropriate system for your project consider the following:
What is the substrate?
Concrete base; Acoustic battens may be laid directly on the concrete base. Where Impact 18 is installed a levelling screed should be laid.
Timber frame building; Tri-batten is designed specifically for use in timber frame building.
Traditional timber joisted sub-floor; Decks and Acoustic Strip Systems are designed to enhance new and old timber base constructions, with a masonry facade.
Is there an existing floor to be retained?
Acoustic Strip and primary Deck Systems are designed for use where the existing floor is to be retained. Acoustic Strip is designed for new projects and projects where the joists are exposed.
Is the finished floor height critical?
Deck 9 System is designed for projects where a minimal increase in floor height is required.
