� No adhesive required� Loose lay installation� Minimises sub-floor preparation� Installs over existing flooring
InstaLay* is a self-contained underlay system thatsimplifies installation by reducing sub-floor preparationand eliminating the need for adhesive. InstaLay addscomfort and sound absorption to improve the performanceof common floor covering products in private homes,hospitality, retail, healthcare, multi-family housing,education facilities and more.
The InstaLay system has the benefit of being supportedinternally by recycled vulcanized rubber crumb granules,unlike traditional foam and textile underlays. Thereforewhen InstaLay is compressed the rubber granules provideexcellent cushioning performance, but when the pressureis released these granules immediately return to theiroriginal shape. In addition to being non-collapsing,they will not degrade over time and have excellentacoustic properties.
Easy installation reducestime and costs
