The invention relates to a decorative panel, in particular a floor panel, ceiling panel or wall panel, and to a method for manufacturing such decorative panel. The panel according to the present invention comprises includes at least one foamed layer comprising including an upper side and a lower side, and at least one decorative solid layer either directly or indirectly, affixed on said upper side of the foamed layer, wherein both the foamed layer and the decorative solid layer are wood based materials. The invention also relates to a floor covering consisting of a plurality of such panels.

Noise/vibration reduction acoustic isolators including assemblies and systems that improve the IIC Rating within a building by reducing transmission of noise and/or vibration or otherwise improve the acoustic isolation properties between floors of buildings. The acoustic isolators, systems, assemblies, etc., herein are particularly useful for raised access floor (RAF) systems in structures such as residential buildings, office buildings, and institutional buildings such as college and higher education, libraries and government facilities.

A flooring assembly (10) comprising at least one vertically lapped fibrous material layer (14), at least one pressure sensitive adhesive layer (12a) including a flexible substrate (12b), a mesh (12c) and an adhesive (12d) located along the flexible substrate, and at least one moisture impermeable membrane layer (16).

An impact-absorbing device and a structure for blocking noise between floors by using same are proposed. The impact-absorbing device has a body (100) including an upper cylinder (120), of which the inside is empty and which has an opening opened downward, and a lower container (140), of which the upper end is inserted into the upper cylinder (120), so that the length thereof can extend and contract has an elastic support (160) formed in the transverse direction inside the upper cylinder (120) and/or the lower container (140), and includes a transmitting body (180), which is supported by the elastic support (160) so as to transmit, to the elastic support (160), impact applied to the upper cylinder (120), and thus impact is absorbed since the elastic support (160) is elastically deformed by the transmitting body (180) while the length of the body (100) is reduced due to the impact.

The present invention relates to: a floor tile including a fabric material, and comprising a balancing layer, a noise prevention layer, a functional sheet layer, a fabric material layer, and a surface coating layer; and a manufacturing method thereof and more specifically to a floor tile including a fabric material and a manufacturing method thereof, the floor tile being a functional tile having a natural texture and a three-dimensional effect possessed by the fabric material, having excellent durability, preventing delamination of the fabric material layer, exhibiting excellent mechanical properties such as tensile strength, and enhancing cleaning facilitation.

A system for introducing a noise-dampening polymer in-line in the manufacturing process of a manufactured wood product to achieve higher acoustic performance in siding, sheathing, roofing, flooring, and similar applications using the manufactured wood product. Several lines or bands of the noise-dampening polymer are deposited transversely across one side or face of the product. The polymer is deposited where the product is expected to contact joists or studs. The polymer may be a viscoelastic polymer.

A fabric composite for a gypsum underlayment sound control mat includes a first layer including a spunbond polyolefin layer, a second layer including a nonwoven polyolefin layer, and a hot-melt adhesive layer between and bonding the first layer and the second layer. A gypsum underlayment sound control mat may include the fabric composite bonded to an entangled mesh layer. A flooring system may include a gypsum or gypsum-concrete underlayment over the fabric composite or the mat. The fabric composite may be free of halogenated agents.
