Akustik-Protect Rigid 10m²

The Akustik-Protect Rigid (1748992), supplied by Eco Friendly Heating and Flooring Ltd, is a high-tech 1.0mm underlay engineered for maximum pressure resistance. Specifically designed for floating installations of SPC, laminate, and engineered wood—particularly in herringbone patterns—it offers extreme durability against dynamic loads. This permanently elastic mat features an integrated aluminium vapour barrier for mineral subfloors and provides superior ambient and footfall sound insulation while remaining fully compatible with underfloor heating. Akustik-Protect Rigid is a pressure-resistant, 10m² acoustic underlay for non-mineral subfloors that significantly reduces footfall and ambient noise, ideal for use under floating laminate, parquet, and design flooring

The Parador underlay Akustik-Protect Rigid also has very good ambient noise and footfall sound-insulating properties. The permanently elastic high-tech underlay is available in the format 1000 x 1000 x 1.0 mm and is characterised by its extreme resistance to dynamic loads and its durability. The underlay is free of plasticisers and complies with the VOC guidelines afsset A+, Blauer Engel and the AGBB scheme.

Use Parador Akustik Protect Rigid (like Akustik-Protect 500/100) when you need ;maximum pressure resistance for floating floors (vinyl, laminate, wood), especially on mineral substrates(concrete/screed), with& underfloor heating, or for dense, high-traffic areas like herringbone layouts, as it offers superior footfall/ambient sound dampening, moisture protection (with aluminum top), and compensates for minor subfloor bumps.

Who supplies the Acoustik-Protect Rigid underlay?
This specialist rigid underlay is supplied by Eco Friendly Heating and Flooring Ltd, a leading UK provider of high-performance flooring accessories and sustainable heating solutions.

Why is this underlay recommended for herringbone floors?
Herringbone and strip flooring require a particularly pressure-resistant base to maintain joint integrity. Acoustik-Protect Rigid is designed to withstand extreme dynamic loads, preventing floor movement and clicking.

Can I use Acoustik-Protect Rigid with underfloor heating?
Yes. At just 1.0mm thick, it has extremely low thermal resistance, allowing heat from water-based systems to pass through efficiently while protecting your floor.

Does it provide moisture protection?
Yes. It features a high-quality lamination that acts as an integrated vapour barrier, making it suitable for direct installation on mineral subfloors like concrete or screed.

What are the dimensions and coverage?
Each roll covers 10m² and measures 10m x 1m. Its ultra-slim 1.0mm profile is ideal for projects with restricted floor heights.
