Winner of 2024 ATFA NZ Hybrid Floor of the Year
Quite possibly the quietest acoustic flooring on the market.
Acoustically clever, sustainable and with the look and feel of genuine oiled-oak, DuracoreSilent® is the next generation in waterproof rigid floors boasting market leading acoustic solutions for multi-level, commercial and residential buildings.
The new patented acoustic technology is embedded deep within the mineral core, so when combined with Duracore's existing acoustic capabilities, reduces sound transfer between inter-tenancy floors by a market leading 21dB and with IIC68, comfortably exceeds NZBC G6 requirements of IIC55.
What does this mean for my project?
- A simple, thin, clean, green, tidy and time saving acoustic floor to meet NZBC G6 acoustic flooring requirements over timber and concrete subfloors.
- No additional acoustic underlays, acoustic glues and associated installation costs of each.
All supported by cutting-edge sustainable manufacturing technology and Green Guard Gold certification, an absolute assurance of quality.
Less Noise Transmission
Ideal for Multi-Level Tenancy & Apartments
With patented acoustic technology deep within the core, DuracoreSilent reduces sound transmission between two adjacent spaces by 21dB - without the need for additional costly acoustic underlay systems.
Not only that, DuracoreSilent absorbs up to 30% more reflected and walking noise in the space than other hard floors.
Quieter, better.
Less Reflected Noise
Add acoustic harmony where cathedral ceilings & business dealings get challenging
This Ponsonby design studio's meeting space has a lofty pitched roof meaning excess ambient noise was bouncing around during business calls so acoustic advantage was a must.
By using DuracoreSilent Herringbone in Mine Bay, up to 81% of in-room noise can be absorbed, 30% more than other hard flooring.
That oiled-oak look and feel
Suitable for every room in the house
Duracore®Silent is coated with PremiumNatureCoat™, a matte finish coating giving the waterproof planks that loved oiled-oak look and feel. Exceptional stain and dent resistance protects defined grain patterns and a clean 'light feature' styled grading.
Quiet, strong, beautiful, durable - achieving form and function.
Case Study
DuracoreSilent is lab & site tested in NZ & worldwide.
Throughout 2023/24 DuracoreSilent has been called in to a number of multi-unit developments in Hamilton & Auckland where previous onsite acoustic testing using other floor coverings, didn't reach the G6 Building Code standard of IIC55.
In all cases, DuracoreSilent (only 7.5mm thick) was easily installed over the existing floor or in place of the originally specified floor product, ensuring new onsite tests met and often exceeded engineer expectations & most importantly, the G6 Building Code Standard.
