Acoustic decks

Acoustic decks are a soundproofing system that use large boards made from a combination of chipboard and foam, with thicknesses varying between products.

They’re placed underneath flooring to effectively produce sound insulation, while aiding thermal insulation, too! 

As an acoustic system, these boards are versatile and can be used in a comprehensive range of projects, from new builds to refurbishments, commercial or residential properties, as well as an extensive list of floor types, including concrete, timber and floating floors.
