For double-stick installation in commercial areas where staff and client comfort is needed, Giltgrip Simlay is a SBR rubber sponge underlay designed for Double Bond installation. It is produced in a continuous sheet with square trimmed edges.
The double-stick system means rapid installation with no rucking or stretching of carpet, with an up-to 50% increase in carpet life compared with conventional and direct-stick methods. Simlay is anti-microbial and anti-allergenic.
Please refer to a Gilt Edge Industries Ltd technical representative for detailed guidance on applicable underlay types.
Independently tested and certified to standard AS4288-2003 Soft Underlays for Textile Flooring.
Fire Rating:
Simlay SBR Latex in assessment of Critical Flux Radius and Smoke development Rate as tested by CSIRO in 2013 in their report #923.
Results: SBR Latex Underlay as per conditions specified I the test report will satisfy Performance Requirement CP4 of BCA 2013.
Acoustics:
The NZBC calls for the IIC rating between inter-tenancy floor-ceiling constructions to be a minimum standard of 55 when tested in the laboratory situation. The code then makes and allowance of 5 dB or 5 IIC points for the same construction when tested in situ, i.e. FIIC 50.
To determine the impact insulation performance of the underlay product, the performance of the product was assessed against the performance of the bare slab. In result, the installation of both underlay products provided an additional approximate 40dB FIIC rating improvement over the bare slab performance.
Emissions Test Certificate:
CETEC: Carpet & Rug Institute Green Label test program incorporating ASTM D5116 'Standard Guide for Small-Scale Environmental Chamber Determinations of Organic Emissions from Indoor Material/Products'
