Floating floors systems are used for many purposes. The main areas where they are specified is for vibration isolation, sound isolation and impact isolation.
In layman’s terms, acoustic flooring is required where there is a noisy room or an environment with high energy near to areas that need to be quiet. If they are incorporated with acoustically isolated walls and ceilings the combination will greatly reduce the noise levels or energy transmitted to the quiet areas.
There are several acoustic flooring systems available:
• The concrete jack-up system, either LDS rubber or spring, for which Mason UK offers a full design and installation service.
• The concrete formwork system, where concrete is poured on a plywood layer placed on LDS rubber isolators.
• Lightweight wooden acoustic sports flooring, either on LDS rubber floor isolators or low profile floor springs.

Types of Floating Floors
Wooden Floating Floors
Wooden floating floors using the Mason MFS spring mount are great for acoustic sports flooring. Their lightweight design means they are often suitable where concrete flooring is not. Click below to find out more.
Jack up LDS rubber (prev neoprene) mount is used in our acoustic floating floors. It eliminates the need for the labour intensive installation of shutters. The lifting process ensures an airgap. Click below for more.
Mason Industries jack up, spring, acoustic, floating floors are used for low frequency isolation or where impact isolation is required, such as bowling alleys, aerobics & health clubs. Click below to find out more.
This alternative to jack-up floating floors is now almost obsolete. The method is one whereby a continuous layer of the isolation media (EAFM Form work mounts) is used as a pouring surface.
