Dunlop Acoustic Underlay for Timber Floors
Moisture control and noise levels are two of the major and recurring issues surrounding floating timber floors, impacting on their performance across many residential and commercial environments.
Dunlop Acoustic Underlay for timber floors has gone through extensive testing by the CSIRO to determine the acoustic performance and compliance with the standard set by the BCA.
Dunlop's timber flooring underlay's all exceed the standard. Dunlop timber flooring underlays are Australian Made and guaranteed for the life of the flooring.
Dunlop Timbermate
This underlay is designed to reduce sound transfer whilst also providing added moisture protection. Recommended for use with most common laminate and engineered timber floating floors.
