Sylcer for Ceramic Tiles

Sylcer for Ceramic Tiles

Sylcer acoustic underlay for ceramic tiles and natural stone is an innovative, high-performance product ideal for acoustically upgrading existing buildings during renovation work on ceramic tiled floors.

Sylcer is a high density, low thickness recycled rubber mat made of SBR and EPDM rubber, that dampens and absorbs noise transmission from footfall and other types of impact noise.

It is laid directly onto existing floors without removing existing tiles, or onto existing concrete screeds ready to receive the new ceramic or stone finish tiles directly onto the acoustic insulation.

Part of the Isolgomma range of above screed acoustic underlays,  Sylcer acoustic underlay for ceramic tiles is the only impact sound insulation for ceramic tiles that has been tested to an improvement value of 17dB according to ISO140-8.

Acoustic Performance​

Ln,w (Impact Sound Pressure Level) – 61dB
This figure measures how much sound reaches the receiving room. The lower the figure the better.

Rw ( Airborne Sound Transmission Loss) – 53dB
This figure refers to the ability of the floor to provide sound insulation. The higher the number, the better the sound insulation.

Installation

Sylcer ceramic tile sound insulation is fixed directly onto the screed using a suitable adhesive. It is disconnected from the perimeter walls with a self adhesive flanking strip. The ceramic tiles are then fixed directly to the sound insulation mat using a flexible adhesive and then grouted.
