The Hush 10 Joist Strip is an innovative acoustic solution designed to isolate timber floors from joists, reducing impact noise and improving overall sound insulation performance. Specifically created for use with the Hush-Panel 28, Hush-Panel 32, and Hush-Ply 28 Floating Floor Systems, this product is a key component for achieving compliance with UK building regulations for soundproofing in domestic and commercial settings.
What is a Joist Strip?
A joist strip is a resilient acoustic layer applied directly to the top of timber or metal joists in a floor construction. It acts as a buffer, reducing the transmission of impact noise through the structure. The Hush 10 Joist Strip is a thin, high-performance solution made from durable materials that compress slightly under load, ensuring optimal acoustic isolation while maintaining structural integrity.
Key Features:
Designed for use with Hush-Panel Floating Floor Systems.
Thin profile (10mm thick, compressing to 8mm in use).
Reduces impact sound transmission.
Easy to install on both timber and metal joists.
How Do the Hush 10 Joist Strips Work?
The Hush 10 Joist Strips function by isolating the flooring system from the structural joists. When stapled or glued onto joists, these strips create a resilient barrier that absorbs and dissipates impact vibrations caused by footfalls or movement. This separation prevents sound energy from traveling through the rigid structure of the building, significantly reducing noise transmission.
The strips work synergistically with Hush Slab 100 acoustic insulation and appropriate ceiling linings to meet and exceed the UK building regulations for airborne and impact noise reduction.
How Effective are the Hush 10 Joist Strips at Stopping Nuisance Noise?
The Hush 10 Joist Strips are highly effective in minimising nuisance noise, particularly impact noise. By decoupling the flooring from the joists, they reduce flanking and direct sound transmission through the structure. When used as part of a complete Hush acoustic flooring system, these strips enable compliance with the following regulations:
Document E (England & Wales): Impact sound insulation up to 40 dB (RW).
Section 5 (Scotland): Airborne sound insulation up to 43 dB (RW).
These performance levels make the strips suitable for residential, commercial, and refurbishment projects.
Where Can the Hush 10 Joist Strip Be Used?
The Hush 10 Joist Strips can be applied in a variety of settings, including:
Residential Properties:
Homes with timber floor constructions.
Refurbishment projects where improved soundproofing is needed.
Commercial Spaces:
Office buildings requiring noise reduction between floors.
Public spaces such as libraries or meeting rooms.
Specialist Applications:
Recording studios or media rooms with strict acoustic requirements.
Multi-dwelling units where soundproofing is essential for compliance with building regulations.
New Build and Refurbishment Projects:
Ideal for modern and traditional construction methods.
How to Install the Hush 10 Joist Strip
Prepare the Joists:
Ensure the joists are clean, dry, and free from debris.
Position the Strips:
Lay the Hush 10 Joist Strips along the top of each joist. For timber joists, staple the strips securely in place. For metal joists, use adhesive to fix them.
Install Acoustic Insulation:
Place Hush Slab 100 acoustic insulation between the joists to enhance soundproofing.
Lay the Floating Floor Panels:
Position the Hush-Panel 28, Hush-Panel 32, or Hush-Ply 28 directly on top of the joist strips. Ensure the tongue-and-groove joints are glued for added stability.
Seal the Perimeter:
Use Hush Flanking Strips or acoustic mastic to seal gaps between the floor panels and walls.
Finish with Ceiling Linings:
Complete the system by installing the appropriate plasterboard lining on the ceiling below.

WOW. Fantastic
I will line the back of the plasterboard on all my walls when doing any future renovations. An excellent product. Especially when comnbined with Rockwool RWA3.
Best on line ‘sound insulation’ advice on website. Very helpful and knowledgeable in advising on products on phone.
Efficient and friendly service. Great ‘on hold’ music! A pleasure to deal with.
Very pleased with the brackets I purchased from soundstop, easy to install and good quality. Very helpful advice and fast delivery.
Thank you very much.
Sound proofing because of loud conversation downstairs
We had people in the flat below us, who spoke very very. Loudly . The soundproofing definitely helped. Thankfully they have now gone. Great product everyone I spoke to were very nice and helpful.thank you
Looking at designing a new soundproof wall for TV and sound system I choose Soundstore. Was impressed with ease on website, the call from them to advise delivery details. Overal great customer service.
Amazing service, an absolute pleasure calling them, they always answered, we're very patient and helpful with my endless questions. Once ordered, my delivery arrived two days later. I wish every company I dealt with ran their business like these guys.
Items arrived promptly and well-packaged. The strip at the bottom of the door came with a tiny set of instructions which are not easy to follow; a video link would have been useful.
Wrong product sent on first delivery, but great customer service ensured correct item was promptly delivered and apologies accepted. The self adhesive Tecsound is easy to apply and is a quality acoustic product. Well done team.
