EcoTimber Underlayment is a eco friendly flooring pad for use under Engineered Hardwood and Engineered Bamboo flooring.

EcoTimber Underlayment Product Specification

Features

• Suitable for use over all types of subfloors
• Reduces ambient noise and floor-to-ceiling sound transmission - outperforms foam, cork and rubber in most Sound
• Transmission Loss tests, at a much lower cost
• Insulates cold floors
• Pre-attached vapor barrier helps prevent water damage
• Absorbent synthetic fibers disperse moisture away from wettest areas, helping prevent damage
• Synthetic fibers, EPA-registered anti-microbial agent and high-temperature manufacture inhibit bacterial, fungal & dust mite growth
• 92% post-industrial recycled content (minimum)
• No formaldehyde emissions (tested per ASTM E1333)

Sound Dampening Performance Ratings

• STC (Sound Transmission Class) = 54
• The sound-insulating property of a partition element is expressed in terms of the sound transmission loss. ASTME90-97, ASTM E413-87.

IIC (Impact Insulation Class) =

• 71 over 6" concrete + suspended ceiling
• 66 over 8" concrete + suspended ceiling
• 60 over standard intertek 6" concrete subfloor w/ceiling assembly

Measures the impact sound transmission performance of a floor-ceiling assembly in a controlled laboratory environment. ASTM E492-90, ASTM E989-89.

FIIC (Field Impact Insulation Class) =

60 over 8” post-tension concrete sub-floor with no ceiling assembly

Field-conducted test using standard IIC methods.
