REGUPOL comfort

The REGUPOL comfort Range was developed for solid timber construction and refurbishment projects, in which existing installation heights can lead to limitations. The key benefits are low thicknesses between 5 and 12 mm, low dynamic stiffness values of ≤ 15 MN/m³ to ≤ 10 MN/m³ and impact sound reductions between ∆L_w 24 dB and ∆L_w 29 dB. REGUPOL comfort impact sound insulation materials are CE-certified and are subject to internal monitoring plans and those of the ETA 17/1030, as well as the high environmental and health protection requirements stipulated in German building regulations. This guarantees not only reliable planning within Germany but also worldwide.

For the renovation of old buildings and light timber construction projects, a combination of REGUPOL comfort 12, 12 mm impact sound insulation, and REGUPOL comfort S1 elastically bonded levelling fill is perfect for compensating height differences and increasing the mass of the construction. Airborne and impact sound tests on C1 wood frame ceilings (EN ISO 10140-5) show that even with a 40 mm thick levelling fill effective sound insulation values of L_n,w 47 dB / R_w 69 dB can be achieved.

High acoustic requirements can also be met by installing additional suspended ceilings using the elastic REGUFOAM hangers. This can result in test values of L_n,w (C_{I 50-2500}) 30 (17) dB / R_w(C_50-5000) 81 (-3) dB

In solid timber construction, mass increases are indispensable in order to meet higher acoustic demands. With 60 to 100 mm of REGUPOL comfort S1 elastic bonded levelling fill, combined with impact sound insulation (with a dynamic rigidity of s‘= 8 MN/m³), test values of L_n,w (C_{I 50-2500}) 42 (1) dB and R_w (C_50-5000) 74 (-7) dB can be expected.
