Abriso Jiffy, a strong partner
in screed underlays
Contact sounds are created by sound vibrations transmitted through structures of a building to other spaces. For example footsteps, objects falling to the ground or moving chairs.
To reduce the effect of contact sounds, contractors and architects work with a floating screed which is placed on top of an acoustic underlay with side strips. This way, the screed is never in contact with the underlying filling layer and the vibrations are absorbed by the acoustic underlay and side strips.
KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCKIN’ ON NEIGHBOUR’S DOOR
If you want peace and quiet to be enjoyed in your building, then installing the right screed underlay is a must.
Many underestimate the impact of contact sound. After all, nobody likes to be woken up by a falling object on the floor above. Or to be disturbed during a conversation or television programme by the footsteps of an upstairs neighbour.
Studies by various acoustic agencies show that the correct installation of a floating screed is vital for a higher and more performant dB improvement index.
So, Abriso Jiffy offers not only screed underlays but also a variety of Acoustic Side Strips. These allow architects and contractors to discover the optimal solution for every construction project.

Making the right connection
Correct installation of acoustic underlays and side strips is very important to achieve the best acoustic results.
Our side strips, Acoustic Strip, should be used for vertical installation against walls.
Acoustic underlays should never be folded up against standing walls. For optimal results, it is important that there are no seams between the connecting layers.

Sustainable & Responsible
In addition to a soundproofing function, screed underlays also have an insulating and thermal function. As we are committed to sustainability, it is important to extend this to our products.
That is why we invest in the production of products that are 100% recyclable. Last year we recovered 15,000 tonnes of waste and saved more than 25,000 tonnes of CO2.
With Abriso Jiffy’s screed underlays and Acoustic Side strips, you are helping to create a sustainable building in a sustainable world.
