When designing a harmonious space, it is necessary to take into account a number of factors. For example, the choice of colors, the decoration, the lighting or the materials used, each element contributes to the overall impression of a room. The acoustics aspect is often underestimated, although optimal sound insulation and absorption is essential for a healthy and productive work environment. Therefore, soundproofing through flooring has become a necessary part of interior design in modern construction and renovation projects. Hard materials, which are often used in modern architecture because of their durability and smooth surface, often do not offer the ideal conditions for good sound insulation. And in older buildings where noise-reducing materials are not built into the building, an acoustic floor can make all the difference. EcoFlex ™ Echo Carpet Tiles are designed to promote overall health and wellbeing in the office, hospitality and education segments by providing the following benefits:
• Increase in productivity: Our carpet tiles with EcoFlex ™ Echo have been tested by external institutes and have been proven to help reduce impact noise by up to 25% and increase sound absorption by up to 100% (compared to a standard bitumen carpet tile)
• Increase the comfort ... instead of just claiming that our carpet tiles are more comfortable -compared to hard surfaces or standard bitumen-backed carpet tiles, We have tested our carpet tiles with the EcoFlex ™ Echo using the Artificial Athlete Method (EN14808), a European standard (commonly used for sports floor coverings). The Artificial Athlete method has shown that our EcoFlex ™ Echo carpet tiles have an increased level of shock absorption of up to 28% compared to standard bitumen carpet tiles.
