When designing or renovating a space, most people focus on aesthetics and durability, but one crucial aspect often overlooked is acoustic comfort. Flooring plays a significant role in the acoustics of a room, influencing how sound travels, how much noise is absorbed, and how much is transmitted to other areas. Whether you’re creating a peaceful home environment, a quiet office space, or a lively entertainment area, understanding the acoustic properties of flooring can help you make an informed choice.
Acoustic comfort refers to the quality of sound within a space. Poor acoustic conditions can lead to excessive noise, echoes, and distractions, negatively affecting our well-being and productivity. In residential spaces, noise control is vital for maintaining privacy and creating a relaxing atmosphere. In commercial settings, controlling sound is essential for fostering productivity and minimizing disturbances.
There are two primary concerns when it comes to flooring and acoustics: impact noise and airborne noise.
Use Underlayment: Adding a sound-absorbing underlayment beneath your flooring can drastically reduce impact noise. Cork, foam, and rubber underlayments are popular choices that can enhance acoustic comfort.
Incorporate Rugs and Carpets: Even if you prefer hard flooring, area rugs or carpets can help absorb noise and reduce echo in a room.
Consider Room Design: The layout and furnishing of a room also affect acoustics. Soft furnishings, curtains, and wall hangings can all contribute to better sound absorption.
Choosing the right flooring material is essential not just for aesthetics and durability but also for creating a comfortable acoustic environment. Whether you’re seeking peace and quiet in your home or minimizing distractions in a busy office, understanding how different flooring materials impact sound can help you achieve the perfect balance of style and sound control. By considering acoustic comfort in your flooring choice, you can create a space that is not only beautiful but also serene and conducive to well-being.
Formaldehyde is a colorless, strong-smelling chemical compound with the formula CH₂O, widely used in various industrial applications. It is a key building block in the production of many materials and chemicals, including resins, plastics, and textiles.
Formaldehyde is also a natural byproduct of combustion and certain metabolic processes in living organisms. However, it is most commonly associated with its role in manufacturing processes, particularly in the production of adhesives used in the construction of pressed wood products like plywood, particleboard, and fiberboard. Despite its utility, formaldehyde is classified as a volatile organic compound (VOC), which means it can easily become a gas at room temperature, contributing to indoor air pollution when present in household products.
The health effects of formaldehyde exposure have been a subject of concern for decades. Here are some health effects that Formaldehyde may cause.
Short-Term Health Effects:
Formaldehyde has long been identified with “red” warnings, but it only gains attention for a few weeks before falling into oblivion, especially from the consumer’s perspective. Manufacturers of construction materials deliberately ignore the warnings about the harmful effects of formaldehyde because investing in safe adhesives would cost 3 to 4 times more. When building personal homes, to keep costs low, people often choose cheaper construction materials, which means very low safety levels for health. Even a year after completing the new house, the smell of materials still permeates the space, which is formaldehyde.
On January 1, 2024, the QCVN 16:2023/BXD standard officially takes effect (replacing the QCVN 16:2019 standard) for the group of construction materials (CM) including bricks, stones, sand, tiles, paint, wooden boards, cement, gypsum, glass, wallpaper, PE/PP plastic pipes, etc., in the Vietnamese market.
Nowadays, most floor installers are using modern technologies to put the floors together tightly without using toxic materials like Formaldehyde. At Neo Floor, we are using locking technologies produced by top companies in flooring industries, such as i4F and Unilin to help the installation process faster and more convenient. Some technologies you can order us to apply like Uniclic, Unidrop (BEST PERFORMANCES), Unipush, Pressed-bevel….
In the flooring industry, currently, many floor products are certified with FloorScore. FloorScore is the most well-known indoor air quality certification for flooring materials, attachments and underlayments, developed by CSC and RFCI.
SPC floor suppliers will gain these benefits with FloorScore certificate:
To obtain the FloorScore certificate, every product needs to go through an 8-step testing procedure. We have briefly described as below:
First, the client submits an application to SCS, which provides a proposal. Once agreed upon, an account manager is assigned. After that, an auditor gathers product data and quality documents. An onsite audit is accordingly scheduled. Next, the auditor visits the client’s site to observe operations and collect a product sample for testing. The product is tested in an SCS-approved lab for emissions, typically taking 3-4 weeks. The auditor later on will report findings, and the client addresses any issues. The auditor prepares a detailed report for SCS to review, grant certification and list the client in the Green Products Guide. Annual reviews and possible renewal testing are required to maintain certification.
Timeline: The process usually takes about three months, depending on the audit schedule.
The answer is 2! At Neo Floor, there are 2 SPC flooring options that are frequently ordered: single-layer and multi-layer (co-extrusion).
Single-layer floor consists of 5 layers with different functions:
✨ UV Coating layer: prevents color fading from scratch and UV light
✨ Wear layer: protects the surface from wear and tear, creates surface texture of wood or stone
✨ Decor Film layer: provides realistic look and color of wood, carpet, or stone with 4K graphic
✨ SPC Core layer: helps the floor become waterproof, anti-fire spread and durable thanks to limestone powder and PVC composite
✨Padding cushion layer: makes the floor sound-absorbing and comfortable to walk on
✅ With single-layer floor, the maximum thickness of the core layer is only 7,3 mm, and that of the wear layer is only 0,7 mm
Co-extrusion floor is constructed based on ABA structure with 7 different layers:
✨ Urethane UV Coating layer: prevents color fading from scratch and UV light (optional: with aluminum oxide or ceramic beads)
✨ Wear layer: protects the surface from wear and tear, creates surface texture of wood or stone
✨ Decor Film layer: provides realistic look and color of wood, carpet, or stone with HD graphic
✨ Reinforced Rigid Vinyl layer: provides extra support and stability for the core layer
✨ SPC Core layer: helps the floor become waterproof, anti-fire spread and durable thanks to limestone powder and PVC composite
✨ Reinforced Rigid Vinyl layer: provides extra support and stability for the core layer
✨ Padding cushion layer: makes the floor sound-absorbing and comfortable to walk on
✅ With co-extrusion floor, the maximum thickness of the core layer is also 7,3 mm, and that of the wear layer is 0,5 mm (equals to 5 sheets of paper!
In Neo Floor’s production line, we use 100% virgin raw materials, 70% of which are purchased from our home country – Viet Nam. Neo Floor’s SPC flooring products can be tailored to your liking of thickness, colors and styles.
Unilin Technologies is the intellectual property unit of Unilin Group that manages more than 3800 patents over 5000 patent families. Offering services to the whole flooring business globally, Unilin Technologies covers every type of board material, including laminate, solid wood, engineered wood, LVT, WPC, SPC, and more.
Honored to be a partner with Unilin, Neo Floor is now applying the 4 most popular technologies in our Rigid Core SPC flooring.
💥 Uniclic: Uniclic helps floor installation easier and faster with the BEST PERFORMANCE among all locking systems. This technology can create no difference in height, last for a long period of time and fit all materials from 3,2 mm. Moreover, the customer can personalize the Uniclic profile to their own preferences.
💥 Unipush: Unipush is a one-piece, fold-down technology that is easy to use and produce. Just by pushing the short side of the panel down into the adjacent plank, you get a solidly locked joint. Manufacturers need no additional materials, such as inserts, and no extra equipment to produce the Unipush profile.
💥 Unidrop: Unidrop provides quick and easy fold-down installation with the BEST PERFORMANCE of all locking systems. To manufacture this type of lock, producers need no glue or plastic inserts, and just need simple added adjustment within the current production line.
💥 Pressed Bevel: The Pressed Bevel Technology enhances the appearance of resilient flooring, and creates a more realistic look than other technologies. Rigid floors that are suited with a pressed bevel will also be more “cushy” for your feet, since you won’t feel the sharp edges at the top of the bevel.
These above-mentioned locking technologies are all among the best technologies, providing the best features and the best profits.
