InstaLay - the unique acoustic flooring installation system
A revolutionary self-adhesive acoustic flooring installation system that is quick, clean and easy to use – while saving significant time and money.
InstaLay is an extremely versatile self-adhesive acoustic underlay which can be used to install solid, engineered and laminate wood floors, LVTs, ceramic, porcelain and natural stone tiles, carpet tiles and carpets. It is simply loose laid over the sub-floor or existing flooring and, as its release film is peeled back, the new flooring is positioned and pressed onto InstaLay’s unique self-adhesive membrane. It reduces sub-floor preparation, eliminates the need for messy wet adhesives and can be walked on immediately after installation.
Available with high grab adhesive for permanent bonding or low grab for easy future lifting, our acoustic underlay improves the comfort, stability and performance of floor covering products. InstaLay transforms cold, hard and ‘unfriendly’ flooring into a softer and warmer alternative in private homes and multi-family housing as well as in hospitality, retail, healthcare, education and leisure facilities.
An acoustic underlay that will not deteriorate or collapse over time, even with high foot traffic, InstaLay is also a hygienic solution that is naturally anti-microbial, anti-allergy, non-absorbent and resistant to decay.
Environmentally friendly InstaLay is manufactured using rubber crumb granules from recycled vehicle tyres, which provide excellent cushioning, underfoot comfort and anti-fatigue properties as well as high acoustic performance. In addition, this acoustic underlay is very stable, durable and non-collapsing with a 10 year guarantee from InstaFloor.
