Application

Suitable:

  • To be used with ground bearing slabs, timber joist, beam and block or concrete suspended floors.
  • To be used under a fine concrete screed in ‘wet’ construction, or under flooring grade chipboard in ‘dry’ construction.

Description

High density tissue faced Rockwool floor slab (with optional rebated edges).


AIMCoustic Floor Slab may be used with ground bearing slabs, timber joist, beam and block or concrete suspended floors.


AIMCoustic Floor Slab may be used under a fine concrete screed in ‘wet’ construction, or under flooring grade chipboard in ‘dry’ construction.


The tissue facing allows the laying of wet screed directly to AIMCoustic Floor Slab without building paper. Rebated edges, if chosen, help prevent grout leakage and thermal/ acoustic bridging.


A DPM is required under AIMCoustic Floor Slab when laid on ground floors or where the substrate hasn’t fully dried.


Features and benefits:

  • High compressive strength.
  • Good thermal insulation properties.
  • Excellent acoustic insulation properties.
  • A1 Non combustible solution.
  • Optional four edge rebated.
  • Fire and rot resistant.
  • Complies with Part E of Building Regulations.
  • Thermal conductivity of 0.040 W/mK (boards up to 40 mm) or 0.038 W/mK (boards of 50 mm or thicker).
  • Helps meet the thermal requirements of ground and upper floors.
  • Helps deliver good acoustic insulation performance upper floors.
  • Will not contribute to a fire within the building.
  • Easy to install.

Manufacturer guidance

  • The density and fibre orientation of AIM AIMCoustic Floor Slabs means that they are especially effective at absorbing vibration, or impact, based sound.
  • They are suitable for use in achieving Part E (Sound) of the Building Regulations in separating floors, floating floor solutions and many other such constructions.

Durability

AIMCoustic Floor Slabs are chemically inert, will not sustain vermin and do not encourage the growth of rot, fungi, moulds or bacteria. They do not degrade under the usual conditions found in buildings and will perform effectively for the life of the building.

Guidance for specification option:

Rockwool stone wool has been proven in service for over 60 years, in a wide range of climates and degrees of exposure. It will generally perform effectively for the lifetime of the building, plant or structure.

Environmental

Global warming potential = zero.

Guidance for specification option:

AIMCoustic Floor Slabs are manufactured from stone wool insulation which is universally recognised as being a sustainable and environmentally friendly material.

Compatibility

Compatible with all normal building materials.
