Rating
The soundproofing ratings of this product are 55dB impact and 49dB airborne.
These figures aren't a measure of the reduction that the product gives, but is the figure that you would get following a soundproofing test, on the same or a similar full floor set-up to the one used during testing (not just the product in isolation).
Please see the product specification for more details on how these figures were achieved. You can also read more about decibel ratings here.
Effective Reduction
This product will give you an airborne reduction of 7dB and an impact reduction of 22dB, when used as a standalone solution (not taking into account the full floor system).
Results are recorded by implementing a 100dB volume in a first floor room, the dB volume is then recorded in the room below and then again when the product is in place. In this instance the airborne dB volume in the room below prior to laying the product was 56dB and after laying the product, the dB volume in the room was recorded at 49dB. This means that the product gives an actual airborne reduction of 7dB and rating of 49dB when used as part of a full floor system.
This product is ideal for both domestic and commercial properties, designed for its abilities to reduce both impact and airborne noise.If you're looking to reduce noise from neighbours upstairs or downstairs, this product is ideal for you!

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a stiffening layer over the Soundlay mat before fitting a floating floor?
Our guidance is to add a stiffening layer, such as 6mm T&G MDF or plywood, when the floor on top is under 15mm thick. Thicker floors, such as a 20mm laminate, should be fine without one, but we always recommend to check your floor manufacturer’s guidance.
Can I use Soundlay under laminate flooring?
Yes, depending upon the thickness. We don't recommend using it for anything less than 15mm thick, ideally 20mm or thicker. Please check the laminate manufacturer's guidance on soft underlays, because some limit what they allow under their boards.
What else do I need to fit Soundlay mats?
You'll want high tack tape for the joints between the mats.
Can I use Soundlay Duo under carpet?
Yes, carpet is listed as a suitable floor type and the product page says it suits all final floor finishes.
