    Acoustic Performance.
    Recently the Building Code of Australia (BCA) amended the minimum sound insulation requirements for multi-level dwellings to reflect community expectations. The BCA standard requires that all flooring assemblies be tested to determine their acoustic performance.

    The acoustic performance is measured in terms that describe the Impact Sound Insulation. The minimum requirement as set by the BCA is 62 dB. The lower the dB result for the flooring assembly the better the acoustic performance of the floor.

    All of Dunlop Flooring’s timber underlays have gone through extensive testing by the CSIRO to determine their acoustic performance and compliance with the standard set by the BCA. Dunlop’s timber flooring underlays all exceed the standard.
