OVERFLOOR SYSTEMS

1)               Absorbaflor Looselay

 

Perkins Absorbaflor Looselay consists of  10mm thick ‘Absorbafoam’ loose laid straight on top of the existing floor.  The ‘absorbafoam’ edges are butt jointed with spray adhesive.  Flexible Blocker layer, BL20, is then loose laid in the opposite direction to the ‘Absorbafoam’ so that joints do not correspond.  The flexible blocker joints are then taped to effectively provide a ‘one piece’ Absorbaflor ready to accept carpet or other soft floor coverings.  (Overlay boards can be provided for laminate flooring and tiles).

 

Why Looselay?

 

¨    Absorbaflor looselay is less expensive than ‘prebonded’ one piece competitors products, yet matches their performance for airborne and impact noise reduction.

¨   Because Looselay joints of each layer do not correspond there are less weak spots for sound to penetrate when foot pressure is applied to the top layer.

¨   Absorbaflor Looselay is supplied in larger sizes which can be ‘rolled out’ quickly – yet are lighter per square metre to carry than ‘one piece’ prebonded products.

 

Note:  A further reduction in airborne sound can be achieved by using Flexible Blocker BL20 both above and beneath ‘Absorbafoam’

Absorbaflor Looselay + FloatingFloor

 

Photo of absorbaflor available shortly
By floating a 22mm or 18mm tongued and grooved timber floor over Absorbaflor Looselay, an improvement in airborne sound is achieved due to the increase in mass.  A resilient layer is always fitted to the perimeter of the room to ensure that the floating floor does not directly touch the flanking walls.

 

The above system provides excellent performance where an increase in floor height is not critical.
