Noise pollution is a common problem in multi-story sports facilities, where the sound of footsteps, jumping and ball impacts from the gymnasium on an upper floor can disrupt offices, classrooms or residential spaces located on the floors below.

Naibu modular sports wood flooring integrates a specialized built-in sound insulation layer that drastically reduces the transmission of impact noise to the levels below. Independent acoustic testing shows that Naibu flooring can reduce impact sound transmission by more than 25 decibels, making it possible for a busy basketball court on the second floor to operate normally without disturbing people working or studying on the ground floor. This sound insulation performance comes completely integrated into the modular panel design, so there is no need to install separate additional soundproofing materials during construction, saving both material costs and installation time. For urban sports facilities located in mixed-use buildings, Naibu’s excellent sound insulation properties eliminate one of the biggest operational headaches that facility managers face on a daily basis.
