Wood floor installation

Noise and sound dampening
With Bona’s underlayment U300 the impact sound is significantly reduced, and quality of life is greatly improved. The Bona U300 decouples the pathway and reduces the transmission of sound.
Impact sound
Impact sound is a form of structure-borne sound that occurs when an object impacts on another, resulting in the generation and transmission of sound. Typically caused by footsteps, the dropping of an object, the moving of furniture or for example laundry machines.
Airborne sound
Airbourne sound is typically what your ears recognize when you are in a room. It is acoustic sound waves which are transmitted through the air. The source of the sound can be for instance music or your own voice. To reduce airborne sound, it is usually adequate to place an area rug, furniture, and soft furnishings to the room.

Bona Adhesives acheive GREENGUARD GOLD certification
New floor installation requires the use of an adhesive to ensure the floorboards stay in place. Yet not all adhesives are created equal. Some can affect the safety and air quality of the home leaving an intense smell to linger for weeks after the floor is installed. The good news is that innovations in adhesives have come a long way.
