Acoustic Floor Insulation APR
Acoustic floor insulation is among the most effective solutions for countering indoor noise. It is especially useful in multi-storey buildings, but can also help minimise noise through suspended floors in single-storey properties.
What is soundproof flooring insulation?
Soundproof flooring insulation is specially developed to reduce the transmission of sound through floors. It absorbs and dampens sound vibrations, forming a sound-isolating layer within the floor structure. This sound isolation floor keeps unwanted sounds out, ensuring defined indoor spaces remain quiet.
Most soundproof floor insulation is made from dense mineral wool, which provides superior sound absorption.
What is floor sound insulation used for?
You can use floor sound insulation wherever you need sound insulation between floors. It is installed to block or reduce voices, music, the sound of the TV, footsteps, moving furniture, dropped items and other airborne sounds.
Sound insulation for floors is particularly effective in:
- Multi-storey buildings.
- Apartments.
- Office blocks.
- Studios.
- Hotels.
- Student housing.
- Domestic homes.
Types of floor sound insulation
Floor noise insulation comes in various types. The most commonly used materials are:
These are usually mineral wool slabs like Rockwool RWA45 and Flexi or Knauf Rocksilk Flexible Insulation Slab. They are among the best-performing sound insulants, ideal for high-specification acoustic applications. Acoustic slabs often combine their sound insulation capabilities with fire resistance to offer a reliable two-in-one solution.
Acoustic rolls are softer and lighter than acoustic slabs. They are best suited for general sound absorption, although some may be suitable for high acoustic requirements, depending on the floor type and the required acoustic performance rating.
When deciding what type of insulation to use, consider:
- The floor structure.
- The level of sound reduction you require.
- The insulation material.
Benefits of soundproofing floors with insulation
Some key benefits of soundproofing your floors are:
- Reduced noise transmission
- Improved privacy and comfort
- Fire safety
- Supports sustainable construction
- Thermal benefits, since acoustic insulation also delivers thermal performance.
- Helps achieve compliance with UK Building Regulations Part E.

FAQ
How thick should floor sound insulation be?
Choose insulation thickness based on the type of floor you have and the level of noise reduction you want to achieve. Slabs like Rockwool RWA45 achieve excellent sound absorption in domestic settings when used in 50mm - 100mm thicknesses. In commercial spaces, thicker or layered insulation may be required.
Can i soundproof an existing floor without removing it?
Yes, you can add an acoustic underlay or overlay to an existing floor. For more complete sound isolation, install insulation between joists or within the floor build-up. This approach gives better soundproofing results.
Is acoustic insulation also good for thermal performance?
Yes, most floor sound insulation materials also help improve heat retention. So even though sound control is your primary goal, you also get thermal benefits. However, acoustic insulation should not replace dedicated thermal insulation when high U-value performance is required.
