Acoustic flooring is essential in absorbing both impact sound and airborne sound.
Impact sound – relates to foot traffic, carts, vibrating machinery or equipment. These movements travel throughout the building’s structure, disturbing staff or residents.
Airborne sound – refers to sound emanating from speakers, instruments, and people; and like impact sound, it seeps through walls and floors, travelling through other rooms or floor levels and can become a nuisance.
The effectiveness of acoustic flooring is measured by its impact insulation class (ICC). This can range from a weaker ICC50 to a solid IIC85; the latter being a combo of carpet and underlay on 35mm concrete.
