ZIPS Floor Vector

ZIPS Floor Vector panel system is one of the most efficient solutions when it comes to soundproofing reinforced concrete intermediate floorings.

The operating range of the system is practically the entire frequency spectrum of domestic noise perceived by humans.

Eight Special Vibration-isolating S-supports

ZIPS Floor Vector panels are fixed to the floor slab with the help of special vibration insulation supports made from Sylomer polyurethane elastomer designed to prevent rigid connections with the floor base.

High efficiency with small thickness

ZIPS Floor Vector panels are only 50 mm thick. The use of lightweight sound-absorbing and heavy sound-reflecting layers in the panels, as well as the absence of rigid connections with floor slab surface allows the ZIPS Floor Vector system to efficiently deal with the problems of shock and airborne sound of medium intensity.

  • Additional shock noise insulation index for the ZIPS Floor Vector system is 28 dB.
  • Additional air-borne noise insulation – 6-7 dB.

No Need for Screed

System installation is very simple and allows to avoid "wet" manipulations during installation of floor sound insulation.

ZIPS Floor Vector panels are mounted on vibration supports on leveled floor slab and are connected to each other by tongue-and-groove edges.

ZIPS DB acoustic triplex sheets and the finishing layer of plywood are fixed on top of the panels with screws.

The edges of sandwich panels must adjoin to side surfaces (walls, columns, and thresholds) through two layers of an elastic spacer made of Ultrakustik Tape 100 material.

Features

ZIPS-Floor Vector panel system is one of the most efficient solutions when it comes to soundproofing reinforced concrete intermediate floorings.

The materials and production technologies used have made it possible to obtain a sandwich panel that effectively copes with the elimination of shock noise and significantly reduces the penetration of household appliances sounds and the human voice.

The operating range of the system is practically the entire frequency spectrum of domestic noise perceived by humans.

Maintenance info

Composition and description

ZIPS Floor Vector sound-insulating system consists of 50 mm thick ZIPS Floor Vector sandwich panels, 16.5 mm (0.6 in) thick ZIPS DB acoustic triplex, and an 18 mm (0.7 in) plywood layer.

ZIPS Floor Vector sandwich panels are two-layer sandwiches consisting of a combination of a "hard" layer of gypsum plasterboard (GPB) and a "soft" layer of basalt mineral fiber, with built-in vibration supports made of Sylomer material.

Storage

ZIPS Floor Vector panels must be stored in dry, enclosed premises, away from any precipitation.

The panels should be stacked horizontally on wooden pallets, boards, or other padding materials to avoid sagging.

Features of the material usage

ZIPS Floor Vector sound-insulating panel system is used during construction and renovation of buildings to improve soundproofing of intermediate flooring.

Airborne Sound Insulation

Index of additional airborne noise soundproofing
∆Rw = 6-8 dB

Shock and airborne Sound Insulation

According to field tests considering indirect ways of sound transmission, the shock noise reduction index of the ZIPS Floor Vector prefabricated panel system is 28 dB.

According to field tests considering indirect ways of sound transmission, the additional air-borne sound insulation index of the ZIPS Floor Vector panel system is 8 dB.
