Keep it quiet

With sound-reducing underlays for wood, laminate and LVT floors, floorwise makes it easier to create fantastically quiet floors.  

Wood, laminate and LVT floors may be beautiful and practical floors, but they are also noisier than their softer counterparts. Fortunately, with floorwise by their side, installers can soften the sound of footsteps – called impact sound – and reduce the buzz of background noise – airborne sound – with a range of dedicated sound-absorbing underlays.

"With a built-in moisture barrier, this really is a
fantastic quality wood and laminate underlay that’s ready
to take on the toughest challenge." 

Many ‘acoustic’ underlays struggle to deal with both types of sound, but the rubber sponge constructions of floorwise Acoustica underlays are capable of absorbing airborne as well as impact sound, something particularly true of the range topping Acoustica Gold Supreme. Using a high-density rubber crumb construction, this 3.5mm thick product not only delivers impressive impact and airborne noise reduction, but also supports click joints and copes with subfloor irregularities. With a built-in moisture barrier, this really is a fantastic quality wood and laminate underlay that’s ready to take on the toughest challenge. 

For more cost-conscious wood and laminate installs, the Whisper collection provides some great options including Whisper Gold, a 5mm high-density PE underlay packed with features including 21dB impact sound, absorption of minor subfloor irregularities, cushioned support and a built-in water vapour barrier. Even Whisper basic foam underlay provides 18dB of impact noise reduction, meaning that whatever the budget, you can have a quieter wood or laminate floor with floorwise.
