No sub deck required prior to
installation reducing floor height
and saving labour.
provides
Excellent performance in
excess of Approved Document E
requirements.
Very lightweight and easy to handle
with simple installation process.
Shallow footprint reduces brick
coursing compared to some timber
floor solutions.
The option of 19mm plank within
the system offers even greater
peace of mind.
Typical applications
Separating floor for apartments,
hotels, student accommodation,
care homes etc for both new build
and refurbishment applications.
Ideal if floor heights are an issue,
or on existing buildings where floor
boards need to be replaced.
*Further improvements can be made by placing 19mm Gypsum based
plank over the Joist Cap before installing the chipboard.
During on-site testing a 1dB improvement in airborne sound and
impact sound was noted.
