ENGLISH About Us Underlay Acoustics Accessories Technical Commercial Worldwide Home / Commercial / Information for Specifiers Information for Specifiers As part of our continued commitment to the design and specification community, this information is designed to make it easier to specify the right products for your projects. The best way to make a decision about the specification of your underlay is to consider all the factors surrounding its use; the type of installation you require, whether you’re using carpet or hard flooring, the likely footfall, whether things like trolleys and baggage will be wheeled across the area, the desired level of comfort, acoustic considerations, and what fire ratings are required. We are delighted to now offer RIBA and BIID approved CPD’s as well as a range of products on NBS Plus, helping to make specifications as straight forward as possible. The benefits of supplying the right underlay… Use our underlay specifying tool. Look Better Underlay protects a carpet and keeps it looking new by preventing the pile flattening. Feels Better Underlay delivers cushioning to make carpets so much more comfortable. Lasts Longer Underlay acts as a ‘shock absorber’ so carpets suffer less wear. New underlay can extend the lifetime of a carpet by up to 50%. Improves Your Insulation Underlays provide an extra barrier to retain heat and could help cut your energy bills by up to 15%. Improves Hygiene An underlay will also act as a barrier to embedded dirt, making it easier to clean and more hygienic. Help To Reduce Noise A carpeted floor with an underlay will act as a barrier to sound, ideal for multi-level living. Underlays for wood and laminate floors can reduce in-room noise by up to 30%.
