Benefits

  • The excellent performance afforded by E-Cousti Membrane within the system.
  • Robust construction provides peace of mind and offers a good margin of safety above minimum requirements.
  • E-Coustifloor creates integral perimeter flanking detail and maintains integrity whilst reducing labour.
  • Closed cell resilient layer allows internal non-loadbearing partitions to be built directly off the floating floor saving labour, wastage and maintaining acoustic integrity.

  • Only 10 kg/m3 mineral fibre required due to E-Cousti membrane performance.
  • Shallow footprint reduces brick coursing compared to some timber floor solutions.

Typical applications

  • Separating floor for apartments,
    hotels, student accommodation, care homes etc for both new build and refurbishment applications.

  • Ideal whenever a simple, robust, high performance solution is required to meet Approved Document E on timber floors with confidence.

*Replacing the 100mm Glass Mineral Wool (10kg/m3) with a 45kg/m3 Mineral Wool may enhance performance.
