Technical Specifications
A D V A N T A G E S
• Sound absorption.
Insulayment’s laments are randomly air-laid creating a
capillary affect to cushion the oor, absorb sound, and help
make laminate oors sound more like real wood.
Field Impact Insulation Class (F-IIC) = 60
Impact Insulation Class (IIC) = 52
Sound Transmission Class (STC) = 53
• Smoothing out minor sub-oor imperfections.
Insulayment
is rm enough (density = 18.9 lbs/ft
3
; compression
resistance @ 25% = 23.2 psi) to support the overlaying oor,
but exible enough to form around sub-oor surface roughness
that may otherwise cause laminate panels to “rock” or lay
unevenly.
• Adding insulation value.
Insulayment will add a thermal “break” to the ooring assembly
with an r-value of approximately .50.
• Approved for use over in-oor heat systems.
The patented process used to make Insulayment
®
creates a
three dimensional ber matrix that allows heat to permeate
evenly while helping to protect the oor covering material from
thermal shock.
• Multipurpose.
Insulayment can be used under all types of industry approved
suboors.

Sound- and Crack-Suppression Insulating Underlayment
Multi-purpose Flooring underlayMent that insulates,
deadens sound & suppresses CraCks
Insulayment is a unique, earth-friendly, insulating underlayment
that helps absorb impact sound so it won’t transfer to lower level
rooms; suppresses the effect of concrete sub-oor cracking
to protect ooring from potential plank gapping; and insulates
oors to help keep them warm in the winter and cool in the
summer. The 0.11” thickness of Insulayment also helps smooth
out imperfections in substrates prior to the installation of a
hard-surface oor covering.

• Insulayment is certied by Scientic Certications Systems
(SCS) to contain 100% post industrial/pre-consumer bers.
Insulayment is LEED™ compliant and will contribute to MRc4.1-
4.2 credits.
• Passed Section 01350 for CHPS and Standard Ofce
• CHPS-listed product
• Makes contributes to LEED MR Credit 4.1-4.2

• All sub-oor assemblies should be tested for moisture vapor
emission rates by utilizing anhydrous calcium chloride test
kits for concrete or a certied moisture meter for wood.
Do not install ooring material when in excess of ooring
manufacturers recommendations for moisture vapor emissions.
