Hacker Floor Underlayments
Product Benefits: Sound Attenuating

 

The silence is golden when the gypsum concrete is a Hacker Floor Underlayment.

The challenges of achieving sound reduction in the lightweight structures of today are many. Meeting them is imperative to deliver a high level of acoustic control for interior privacy, not just for residential structures, but any light-weight construction where airborne (IIC) or structural noise transmission (STC) can be an issue.

Hacker Industries' helped write the first sound code in the United States. With three sound attenuating solutions: High-Performance, Low Profile and Green, Hacker Industries, Inc. is committed to working with innovative companies to develop products that achieve code compliant noise control, while helping the environment as well.
