Hush Mat 12

Hush Mat 12 is a high performing acoustic floor system that has been uniquely engineered to reduce both impact and airborne sound when laid over a structure. The acoustic rubber mat ensures the highest levels of impact sound reduction are met and due to the products mass there is also a high level of airborne noise reduction. This is something that doesn’t normally occur with an acoustic floor.

When used in the right application, Hush Mat 12 can be installed over timber, concrete and screeded floors with lath and plaster, suspended timber/metal ceilings or resilient bar ceilings to ensure compliance with all UK Building Regulations.

Specifications

The acoustic performance of the SB Lay 15 Soundmatting is as follows:

•     Impact sound (L'nT,w): 49dB
•     Airborne sound (DnT,w): 57dB
•     Airborne sound (DnT,w + Ctr): 51dB

These measurements are based on the product being laid over a floor structure, with a suitable ceiling treatment and all flanking paths removed.

• Size = 1250 x 1000mm
• (nominal) Thickness=12mm
• Weight=8kg/m2

Cutting: By sharp long bladed trimming knife. Score the surface then run through with knife several times to avoid tearing. When shaping, use large scissors or tin snips. A circular saw should be used for large numbers of straight cuts.
