Learn More About How Insulation can be Successfully Integrated within Jack-Up Floating Floors to Enhance Acoustic and Thermal Performance

Jack-up floating floors are widely used in high-performance environments such as studios, cinemas, gyms, and mechanical rooms to control vibration and airborne noise. A common misconception in the industry is that the air cavity within these systems cannot accommodate insulation. 

This technical bulletin debunks that myth and demonstrates how insulation can be integrated to improve system performance.

Inside, you will find a comprehensive overview of jack-up floating floor systems, including both embedded and replaceable types, and guidance on design and installation strategies. Using laboratory test data and real-world case studies, the bulletin explains how cavity insulation can reduce resonance, enhance impact and airborne sound insulation, and improve thermal efficiency, all without compromising the structural integrity of the system.

This bulletin provides practical insights for acousticians, architects, and contractors looking to specify, design, and implement optimised jack-up floating floor solutions. By understanding how and why insulation works within the cavity, you can make informed design decisions and deliver superior acoustic performance in your projects.
