QuietWalk Underlayments Overview

QuietWalk Underlayments Overview: QuietWalk branded flooring underlayments are the #1 trusted underlayments on the market, sustainably constructed from repurposed and recycled fiber materials that would have otherwise been dumped into landfills. They are proudly developed in the USA! This innovative design of QuietWalk underlayments not only helps reduce the impact on our environment but also provides your new hard surface floors with a premium underlayment—without the premium price—unlike other cork, foam, and petroleum-based materials.

QuietWalk protects against harmful moisture, reduces unwanted noise, improves durability, and promotes comfort in your home. QuietWalk’s power lies in its fibers, and here’s how…

QuietWalk can be installed over wood or concrete subfloors. What sets it apart from others is its exclusive Dri-Wick Technology, which provides superior water protection, especially over concrete floors. Concrete constantly emits invisible vapors, and when these vapors are blocked and trapped, they condense into harmful water droplets. These droplets can damage floors over time and compromise your home’s air quality by promoting mold growth. QuietWalk’s Dri-Wick technology prevents vapors from becoming trapped, allowing concrete to breathe. The active anti-microbial treated fibers are unrolled over the subfloor while the attached vapor barrier protects the floor from harmful moisture and water vapor. QuietWalk underlayments also feature a built-in lip and tape system for full water protection coverage, saving you time and money on additional seam tape for installation.

True to its name, QuietWalk reduces unwanted noise in your home, making floating floors sound and feel more like solid floors underfoot. The dense fiber structure absorbs and controls sound, preventing it from transmitting to other rooms. This is why QuietWalk products are often specified for use in condos and multi-family living spaces, and they are HOA-recommended! Check out our official sound scores to see how QuietWalk leads the industry in noise reduction.

QuietWalk’s dense fiber construction gives your floors, and their joints, the strength they need to withstand everyday life. The fiber structure helps smooth out subfloor imperfections and won’t crush over time under heavy foot traffic, providing your floors with the right support to last long and stay beautiful. QuietWalk does the behind-the-scenes work so your floor can take the credit.

QuietWalk acts like a thermal blanket, adding energy efficiency to your home. It helps insulate your home, keeping external elements out and maintaining indoor comfort. QuietWalk products also exceed stringent indoor air quality standards, containing no detected VOCs or chemical off-gassing that could create an unhealthy environment. This achievement is recognized by our GREENGUARD GOLD certification, which is proudly displayed on each QuietWalk label.

So go ahead—get busy living on your beautiful new floors, with the #1 trusted underlayment beneath them. QuietWalk completely protects your floors, ensuring they live long and stay beautiful!
