FLOATING SCREED OVER MAXFORTE-SOUNDPRO SOUNDPROOFING SET

MAXFORTE SoundFlex is a new generation resilient construction foam specially designed for soundproofing. This product features high density and low expansion. SoundFlex foam is highly resilient, stretchable and capable to restore the original shape after being compressed. Thanks to all these, the excellent vibroacoustic properties of MaxForte SoundFlex are ensured! This product acts as a damping layer and, due to this, significantly reduces the vibration load between the building structures.

Using MaxForte-ShumoIzol under the screed is a standard floor soundproofing solution for new buildings where the sand-concrete screed is required. The increase in floor soundproofing equal to 27 dB guarantees the compliance with all requirements of the Building Codes and Regulations (SNiP) “Noise protection” including those for class A “Luxury Housing”! In addition to superior soundproofing, MaxForte-ShumoIzol also provides high-quality waterproofing of the premises.

The most proven sound insulation option used in apartments. The combined use of two sound-absorbing materials - the MaxForte SoundPRO and the 60 kg/m³ ECOslab - allows to get the highest possible sound absorption at the entire range of the frequencies including the low frequencies (the stereo systems and the home theaters). The mounting of cladding ensures the full compliance with all requirements of the Building Codes and Regulations (SNiP) “Noise protection” including those for class A “Luxury Housing” and allows to achieve the perfect silence. Noise reduction down to 22 dB.

Maximum sound insulation at minimum cost. If you are not embarrassed by the loss of the area, then the option for you will be the 100/50 mm KNAUF profile filled with two layers of the 60 kg/m³ MaxForte-ECOslab. This structure provides excellent sound insulation against low frequencies. This design has proved itself as ideal for use in home theaters, stereo systems listening rooms and home studios.

The most proven sound insulation option used in apartments. The vibration isolation is ensured by special MaxForte PRO series vibration insulating hangers. The sound is absorbed by the MaxForte-ECOslab or EcoAcoustic sound-absorbing slabs. The sound insulation of the ceiling meets the standard KNAUF designs, so it can be mounted by any workers engaged in repair of apartments. Both airborne and impact noises will be removed with the same efficiency (with noise reduction down to 20 dB)!

This option provides the maximum sound insulation of the ceiling in the most difficult cases including home theaters, stereo systems, or strong impact noises from the upstairs. As the first layer, the MaxForte-SoundPRO in rolls should be attached to the ceiling; then, the KNAUF profiles should be attached via the vibration insulating hangers; next, the sound-absorbing 60 kg/m³ MaxForte-ECOslabs should be placed between the profiles. The combined use of two sound-absorbing materials - the MaxForte SoundPRO and the 60 kg/m³ ECOslab - allows to get the highest possible sound absorption at the entire range of the frequencies including the low frequencies (the impact noises like tramping or falling objects). After the mounting, we get a completely soundproof ceiling with an increase in sound insulation of 22-25 dB!

This thinnest option of ceiling soundproofing comprises the drywall and the profiles. It is an ideal solution for the apartments with low ceilings where every centimeter counts. This structure is based on the 60/27 mm KNAUF profile providing a smooth ceiling surface immediately. The rolls of MaxForte-SoundPRO – a state-of-the-art composite material which is only 12 mm in thickness – are applied for sound insulation. This material should be attached to the ceiling with ordinary expansion anchors. At the points where the frame is attached to the concrete, the SoundPRO is compressed and due to this acts as a damper reducing the vibration. At the rest area of the ceiling, the material absorbs the sound waves due to its fibrous structure. Thanks to the enhanced flexibility of SoundPRO, it can be used as sound insulation even for complex-shaped ceilings (with pipes, wiring, or height difference). 3-4 times reduction of noise from the upstairs (down to 12-14 dB).

Maximum sound insulation of partitions at minimum cost. Soundproof drywall partitions can be the excellent replacement for gypsum partition blocks or foam concrete blocks. The partitions made as per KNAUF technology are highly rigid and able to withstand the heavy loads. The standard 10 cm thick 60 kg/m³ MaxForte-ECOslab partition ensures sound insulation of 55 dB which is sufficient for comfortable stay. Featuring the simple design and quick installation, the soundproof drywall partitions are a proved reliable solution for sound insulation of apartments, offices, recording studios and other premises.

MaxForte SoundPIPE is designed for sound insulation of sewer pipes, water supply pipes, ventilation pipes, air ducts and other communications located in apartments, offices or industrial premises.
