The SB Under Screed Acoustic Membrane is a high-performance product used to separate screed from various types of structures including Concrete Structures, Concrete Plank Structures, Raft Structures, Concrete/Metal Structures, and Beam and Block Structures. It is designed to provide outstanding impact sound reduction and is easy to install. The membrane has a high resistance to compressive loads and remains highly elastic. Its loose lay system prevents slipping during installation.
The SB Under Screed Acoustic Membrane meets and exceeds tough acoustic building requirements and complies with Building Regulations Part E (England and Wales), Section 5 (Scotland), and Part G (Northern Ireland). It can also be used as part of a Code For Sustainable Homes Development and as an alternative to Robust Details. The membrane offers exceptional compressive strength and load-bearing performance, while its high resilience ensures sound absorption is not reduced. Additionally, it is environmentally friendly as it is fully recycled.
