Premium Material & Long-Lasting Durability
⭐ This 2mm perforated IXPE underlayment with aluminum film is specially designed for quality-focused homeowners and professional construction teams.
Integrating advanced material technology and user-friendly features, it redefines the standards of flooring protection. Unlike regular underlayments, this product is made of high-purity cross-linked polyethylene (IXPE) via a precision foaming process, boasting a uniform honeycomb structure as well as excellent resilience and long-term compression resistance. Even under prolonged heavy loads—whether in furniture placement areas or high-traffic passageways—it can keep the flooring flat, intact and resistant to deformation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What type of flooring is this 2mm IXPE underlayment compatible with?
This underlayment is suitable for a wide range of flooring types, including laminate, hardwood, and bamboo flooring. Its flexible structure and stable thickness make it an ideal base layer for most floating floor installations.
Q
What does the aluminum film layer on the underlayment do?
The aluminum film layer provides effective thermal insulation (0.08 w/mk) and acts as a moisture barrier, helping to reflect heat and protect the flooring from temperature fluctuations and moisture from the subfloor.
Q
What are the IIC and STC ratings of this product, and why do they matter?
This product achieves an IIC rating of 70db and an STC rating of 68db. The IIC (Impact Insulation Class) measures impact sound reduction, while the STC (Sound Transmission Class) measures airborne sound reduction. Higher ratings mean better soundproofing performance, making this underlayment ideal for multi-story homes and apartments.
Q
What is the water absorption rate of this IXPE underlayment?
The water absorption rate is less than 0.1%, making it highly resistant to moisture. This ensures long-term durability and prevents mold or mildew growth beneath the flooring.
Q
What are the available roll sizes and how much can fit in a container?
The underlayment is available in 100 sq.ft and 200 sq.ft roll sizes. A 20GP container can hold approximately 12,000 sqm (129,000 sq.ft), while a 40HC container can accommodate up to 27,000 sqm (290,000 sq.ft), making it efficient for large-scale orders.
Q
Why is IXPE considered superior to regular foam underlayments?
IXPE (cross-linked polyethylene) is produced through a precision foaming process that creates a uniform honeycomb structure. This results in superior resilience, long-term compression resistance, and structural integrity compared to standard PE foam underlayments, which tend to flatten over time under heavy loads.
