The soundproofing of a building is of paramount importance. Your home should be an oasis of peace where you happily live without the noises of your neighbor or even other people who occupy your daily life.
DCC Solutions offers you an acoustic solution that offers an impressive set of advantages: Fermacell soundproofing floor panels. These panels, fitted with insulation at the base, then covered with gypsum and cellulose sheets, have a double effect: thermal (heat) and acoustic (noise) insulation.
Designed to be installed quickly and without worries (for both a builder and a renovator), we are convinced that this acoustic solution will be the best for you and your project.
Note that the Fermacell soundproofing floor system is compatible with all floor coverings.
In the particular case of condominiums or multi-unit buildings, the conventional solution for soundproofing each floor is the installation of a concrete floor. Although effective, this process also brings its share of inconveniences:
Excessive weight (18 lbs/ft2), which requires more investment in the building structure.
Long drying time for the concrete screed (28 days where the space must be heated).
Input of moisture into the structure.
The concrete screed must be installed in one step, no downtime for the workers if necessary.
With our solution, you are assured of having an alternative that performs as well, but without all the disadvantages that concrete creates.
Fermacell floor soundproofing panels is designed for easy installation by one person.
The composition of Fermacell floor soundproofing panels ensures a high performance for both the insulation of your floor and its soundproofing.
Unlike a concrete screed, which must be left to dry for 28 days, Fermacell floor soundproofing panels require only 24 hours for the adhesive to dry. This saves a lot of time when other work is to follow!
If the environment is important to you, choosing to use Fermacell flooring panels is a natural choice. Made exclusively of mineral or renewable materials (recycled paper fibers, gypsum and water – no additional binder added), the use of Fermacell also avoids the pouring of a concrete slab with high GHG emissions (greenhouse gases).
All this is without mentionning the environmental benefits that can be achieved through the use of Fermacell sound absorbing floorboards. Indeed, the product is composed exclusively of recycled paper fibers, gypsum and water (without the addition of additional binder).
The world production of cement corresponds to 7% of the world’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which represents 5 billion tons. The GHG savings generated by our products for the production of concrete represent the equivalent of 47,700 km travelled by a standard car!
In fact, a study conducted by L2C for a 4-story multi-unit building in Longueuil reports that the use of our products would cause :
Fermacell soundproof flooring system - wood fiber
Take advantage of bio-based insulation to soundproof your floor!
Fermacell soundproof flooring system - mineral wool

Commercial and institutional construction can benefit from the Fermacell soundproofing floor system due to its speed of installation. No more having to wait 28 days to let a concrete screed dry, your contractors can continue the work in barely 24 hours.
Whether you are a building contractor or an individual who self-builds your home, the ease of installation of Fermacell soundproofing floorboards represents a significant advantage, both in terms of your time and the savings to be made.
