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.

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.

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.
