Installation:

To begin, attach the boards to the floor with the rubber side facing downwards. You can opt to use a thin layer of flexible tile adhesive or Marmox Multibond. Multibond is a material that can absorb sound waves, providing a bit more sound reduction and insulation compared to using just the boards. However, it takes about 12 hours for Marmox Multibond to cure effectively before you can proceed to tile upon it. 

Regardless of the adhesive chosen, it is important to leave a 4mm space between the boards' edge and the wall. This space should then be filled with a visco-elastic adhesive like Multibond to prevent the occurrence of flanking sounds. Once installed this soundproofing insulation, proceed to tape the joints and tile in the usual manner. 

Applications:

Marmox soundboard can be used in the following applications:

• As a water-resistant underlayer for ceramic and stone tiles on indoor floors that offers separation, insulation against heat, and protection against impact noise.
