For an underlayment to maintain its acoustical performance it must retain its thickness. Many standard grade
underlayments are made of low weight, light density foams or recycled fiber which crush over time, significantly
diminishing their ability to absorb sound. In fact, some of these underlayments can lose as much as 45% of
their original thickness.
Loss of Thickness Equals Loss of Performance
Not All Underlayments Are Created Equal

Loss of thickness affects more than just acoustical performance, it can have a direct impact on the look and
durability of the primary floor covering. The illustrations below demonstrate how a laminate or wood floor
can buckle, warp and snap at the joints when not properly supported by a resilient underlayment.
