Foam underlay for laminate flooring - 3mm thick basic foam underlay. Ideal for use on existing wooden floors or concrete floors (when used with a damp proof membrane).
The foam underlay can be used with any floating floor such as laminate flooring or engineered floors. It is ideal to smooth out imperfections in the floor, reduce sound travelling between floors, absorb impact and shocks to the laminate and to allow the click system to have some tolerance to movement.
Floor Muffler is a premium acoustical floor underlay. It has been environmentally designed for sound insulation and impact noise control under floating laminate flooring, engineered wood and solid wood flooring. It is an excellent choice for commercial and residential installations.

Cork underlayments can come in a variety of thicknesses. We've found that the most popular are the 1/4" thick cork underlayment (6mm) in strict strata regulations. 1/8" thick cork is available.
One isn't more beneficial than the other; the only difference is the thickness. Cork underlayments can come in either rolls or sheets. If an installer needs to add height to a subfloor, he'll often choose to use the thicker 1/4 IN. cork underlayment, as most synthetic underlayments measure up at about 1/8 IN. thick.
Many homeowners with allergies love cork as it is naturally anti-bacterial as well as anti-fungal. It's important to remember that cork is naturally water resistant, but not waterproof.
