Our popular non-toxic underlayment, DeciBLOK provides great support, sound insulation and durability for flooring. DeciBLOK™ acoustic wood, engineered wood, and laminate floor cushion, is composed of a lightweight, cellular sponge rubber mat, that is layered between two polyester non-woven films. It is designed to reduce flooring noise by dampening impact effects and by isolating sounds to the room where they are created. It contains an antimicrobial additive that inhibits and retards micro-organisms, odors, mold and mildew. DeciBLOK is also available with a moisture vapor barrier for concrete subfloors.
NOTE: This product contains Styrene Butadiene which in its raw state is a monomer and when inhaled is hazardous. Generally people are exposed to Butadiene from car exhaust, cigarette smoke and other forms of combustion. The synthetic rubber used in DeciBlok is virgin, not recycled or crumb rubber. It is made from a "block copolymer" which is produced by polymerizing two or more monomers in a process that disallows any risk of exposure. There is no exposure to Butadiene from this product. It does not contribute to indoor air pollution. CRI Green Label Certified for indoor air quality.
DeciBLOK's good memory prevents compression, and has the lowest R-value in the industry which makes it ideal for floating floor installations over radiant heat. It can also be glued down for even better sound quality and further reduction of impact noise. DeciBlok is recommended as "Best Choice" by the Radiant Professionals Alliance.
DeciBLOK is very easy to use; simply roll it out and cut it with a razor blade to fit the room. It has a slight rubber smell when first out of the package, but this goes away and leaves no trace once covered with a floor.
We've used this since 1991 underneath our radiant-heated floating floor. It doesn't compress, crumble, disintegrate or out-gas like most foam pads. It also allows heat to easily pass through.
