Soundproof flooring is a salient supportive feature of any well-designed commercial space.
When a space is aesthetically pleasing, flooring must play its part too. In addition to wanting clients and guests to feel calm and welcome, you want them to sense the atmosphere of your space. Comfortable as the area might be, acoustics matter. You want it not to be impacted by the surrounding noises from areas and spaces around.
Identifying the quality of the space you are building is essential; it helps to narrow in on noise-proof flooring solutions that fit your space’s needs best. Some important things to pay attention to: is your space located within a building of offices, is it independently built, is it at an upper or lower level, is it for a multiplex, does your space fall within a shopping mall, and so on?
When a space receives heavy footfall, the right kinds of sound dampening flooring and soundproof flooring aid in balancing the acoustics. As they smoothen out rough noises and keep reverberations to a minimum. Art galleries, broadcast studios, cinema halls, exhibition centres, libraries, salons, shopping centres, and warehouses are some commercial spaces that rely resolutely on sound dampening flooring and soundproof flooring.
IXPE backing or IXPE foam underlayment is a revolutionary lower-density soft structural material (AKA Cross-Linked Polyethylene Foam) that combines the properties of plastic and rubber. This makes IXPE foam a trusted choice in soundproofing and heat insulation in buildings. A high-performance foam layer, IXPE backing is used in Welspun Flooring’s SPC tiles too. Our Stone Polymer Composite tiles possess remarkable strength, including a protective anti-fade UV finish – IXPE foam underlayment’s cushion-backing properties provide superb underfoot comfort.
When gauging noise-proof flooring options for commercial spaces, the cross-connected structure of IXPE foam underlayment becomes an important factor.
In the production process of Cross-Linked Polyethylene Foam, no harmful substances are used – the finished product is harmless to human health in addition to being non-toxic and odourless, meeting environmentally friendly requirements. Cross-Linked Polyethylene Foam possesses a long lifespan, making it a sustainable flooring solution. Its lightweight properties and resistance to chemicals, oils, and water make it durable, allowing for less material waste as chances of replacing it frequently are low. An IXPE foam underlayment with SPC flooring is also favoured for modern-day floorings because of its low carbon footprint alongside its minimal maintenance factor.
