Mapei’s soundproofing solutions for living comfort
Urban development has led to an inevitable increase of noise coming from our surroundings. Mapei offers two types of soundproofing solutions to improve the acoustic efficiency of our living and working environments.
Mapesonic CR This is an innovative, under-floor soundproofing system to combat the noise of footsteps transmitted through floor slabs, and applied before laying ceramic tile, stone and engineered wood floor finishes. It has been specifically developed for application in existing buildings to improve soundproofing without removing the floors and screeds, thus speeding up the installation process. Mapesonic CR is manufactured using recomposed cork and rubber bound together with high- quality polyurethane composite with low emission of volatile organic compounds (EMICODE EC1 Plus).
Mapesonic Strip is first laid in a continuous layer around the perimeter of the room. Next, adhesive is applied on the sound substrate and the Mapesonic CR is put in place. New flooring finishes may be bonded after 24–48 hours.
Mapesilent Roll
This alternative system is a simple, reliable and efficient method to form an isolated floating screed that is insulated from the support structure before laying flooring materials such as ceramic tiles, stone, resilient and wood coverings. The system comprises three components: Mapesilent Roll, an elasto-plastomeric membrane; Mapesilent Band R, a polyethylene adhesive band; and Mapesilent Tape, a polystyrene sealing tape.
Installation is quick and easy by laying Mapesilent Roll on the floor, ensuring that each border overlaps the adjacent one. The joints between the rolls are then sealed with Mapesilent Tape. Mapesilent Band R is applied on the perimeter of the walls. Thereafter, the floating screed is set in place and selected floor finishes can be installed. Mapesilent is certified by international standards EN ISO 10140-3: 2010, EN ISO 717- 2: 2007, EN 29052-1: 1993 and EN 29053: 1993. When fully installed, the reduction in the noise of footsteps (∆Lw) can be more than 30 dB.

Samsung’s innovative air-purifying and cooling technology with PM1.0 filter
An air conditioner with air-purifying panel in one unit Samsung’s Wind-Free range of air conditioners is a powerful solution that controls the temperature and humidity of the indoor space. It incorporates an air-purifying panel that is designed to improve air quality with its advanced filtration system, a two-step system that consists of two types of filter—a pre-filter and a PM1.0 filter.
Proven capability to sterilise bacteria as well as capturing ultrafine dust
The PM1.0 filter is not only effective at capturing ultrafine dust of up to 0.3 micron in size, but it also sterilises up to 99 per cent of certain bacteria trapped by the filter using an electrostatic precipitator. It has two main parts that charge and collect dust and bacteria. The brush type discharger generates negative ions that give dust particles and bacteria a negative charge, so they become strongly attached to the ground electrode due to the electrostatic force of the collector. Its effectiveness in sterilising bacteria has been verified by Intertek*.
