Acoustic Flooring
7 mm acoustic flooring: 0.5 mm PVC, 4 mm LVT and 2.5 mm EVA with a UV coating. Ln,w = 63 dB for the tested flooring configuration; this is an impact sound level, not a reduction.
Product Description
SG-AF Acoustic Flooring is a 7mm acoustic flooring system comprising a 0.5 mm PVC wear layer, a 4mm LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tiles) layer and a 2.5mm EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) damping layer, engineered to reduce impact noise and improve indoor acoustic comfort.
The combination of durable LVT and resilient EVA underlayment delivers excellent impact noise reduction, superior walking comfort, wear resistance, moisture protection, and long-term performance for residential and commercial applications. Available in three wood finishes: Oak (AF-3101), Walnut (AF-8801), and Ash (AF-3158).

Product Engineering Principle
The SG-AF combines a durable wear surface with a resilient damping layer to control impact noise at the source:
- UV Coating - Protective top finish for wear and scratch resistance
- 0.5mm PVC Wear Layer - Decorative and protective surface layer
- 4mm LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tiles) - Durable, dimensionally stable core layer
- 2.5mm EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) - Resilient underlayment that absorbs footfall and impact energy
This layered build-up reduces impact noise transmission to the floor below while delivering a comfortable, hard-wearing walking surface.
Why Choose SG-AF?
The SG-AF delivers acoustic performance and finished aesthetics in a single product, removing the need for a separate underlay while controlling the footfall and impact noise that disturbs spaces below.
Key Benefits
- Impact Sound Level: Ln,w = 63 dB for the tested flooring configuration; not a reduction value.
- Integrated Damping: 2.5mm EVA underlayment built into every plank
- Superior Walking Comfort: Resilient layer cushions every step
- Moisture Protection: Suitable for a wide range of interior environments
- Wear Resistant: 0.5mm PVC wear layer with UV coating
- Three Wood Finishes: Oak, Walnut, and Ash
Technical Innovation
The 2.5mm EVA damping layer dissipates impact energy before it transmits into the structural slab, while the 4mm LVT surface provides durability and a realistic wood appearance - combining acoustic underlay and finished floor in one system.
Installation Methods
SG-AF supports flexible installation:
- Loose Lay for fast, removable installation over level subfloors
- Adhesive application for permanent installation
Supplied 12 pieces per box for straightforward project planning.
Recommended Applications
SG-AF is ideal for spaces where impact noise and walking comfort matter:
- Residential: Apartments, condominiums, upper-floor rooms
- Commercial: Offices, meeting rooms
- Hospitality: Hotels, serviced apartments
- Education: Schools, kindergartens
