Mapesilent Panel tiles are composed of a bitumen and special polymer-based elasto-plastomeric membrane, sandwiched together with a resilient layer of polyester fibre.
Lay the Mapesilent Panel tiles with the polyester fibre layer (the light-coloured side) towards the bottom, making sure they are perfectly aligned.
Seal all the joints between the tiles of Mapesilent Panel with Mapesilent Tape.
If better insulation or soundproofing are required, the efficiency of the insulating material may be increased by laying a double layer with the white sides laid against each other, by applying the first layer white side up.
The perimeter of the room to be soundproofed must be insulated using Mapesilent Band R tape applied around the perimeter of walls and elements which pass through the screed, to avoid the formation of acoustic bridges.
Once the final floor covering has been laid, and immediately before attaching the skirting boards, cut the excess pieces of Mapesilent Band R, seal the spaces between the skirting boards and the floor with a suitable flexible sealant.
