New Direct To Joist Acoustic Deck 37 Cuts Installation Time And Cost
JCW Acoustic Supplies, the UK’s leading acoustic insulation manufacturer and supplier, has introduced an innovative new product designed to save contractors time and money on site. The new JCW Acoustic Deck 37 is one of the thinnest and best-performing acoustic decking systems on the market — a practical, high-performance solution that can be laid directly onto timber joists without the need for a separate subfloor.
By removing the need to install a new floor structure first, JCW Acoustic Deck 37 significantly reduces both installation time and labour costs, while delivering proven sound insulation performance that meets and exceeds current Building Regulations.
Why Choose Acoustic Deck 37?
JCW Acoustic Deck 37 has been engineered to provide exceptional acoustic performance in both new build and refurbishment projects. At just 37mm thick, this direct-to-joist acoustic deck is ideal for developments where floor-to-ceiling height restrictions make traditional floating floors difficult to install.
Despite its slimline profile, Acoustic Deck 37 offers excellent impact and airborne noise reduction, making it particularly suitable for flats, conversions and residential properties that require compliance with Approved Document E (Part E) of the Building Regulations.
When combined with JCW Perimeter Flanking Band, the system delivers full compliance for both airborne and impact sound insulation performance. It’s a robust, fire-retardant system that’s backed by independent testing from a UKAS-accredited laboratory, ensuring complete confidence for specifiers and contractors alike.
Acoustic Deck 37 for Timber Floors
JCW Acoustic Deck 37 is designed exclusively for use on timber floor structures. It’s suitable for a wide range of applications, including multi-occupancy buildings, apartment conversions and domestic refurbishment projects. The product can be used to achieve the high levels of acoustic separation demanded by modern building standards and client expectations.
Its lightweight construction makes it easy to handle and install, helping reduce manual handling risks and speeding up installation programmes. Non-load-bearing partitions can be built directly on top of the deck, improving design flexibility and reducing site complexity.
Environmentally Responsible Soundproofing
JCW Acoustic Deck 37 is manufactured from 100% recycled materials and is itself 100% recyclable. This strong environmental performance supports sustainable construction objectives and helps specifiers meet green building targets. The board is also free from hazardous materials and can be used safely in both residential and commercial environments.
