The Hush Panel 23 is an economical acoustic flooring solution designed specifically for new builds and refurbishments with concrete or masonry structures. This lightweight yet effective floating floorboard addresses impact noise transmission, meeting and exceeding UK Building Regulations standards, including Document E (England & Wales), Section 5 (Scotland), and Part G (Northern Ireland). With its thin profile, the Hush Panel 23 is ideal for projects where room height is limited, while delivering excellent acoustic performance. It’s compatible with a variety of floor finishes, making it a practical and versatile choice for residential and commercial developments.
What is the Hush Panel 23?
The Hush Panel 23 is a high-performing acoustic floor deck designed as an overlay solution for concrete and masonry structures. It is specifically engineered to tackle impact noise, which masonry constructions often fail to address. At just 23mm in thickness, the Hush Panel 23 provides a thin and cost-effective solution while delivering significant acoustic benefits. Its robust design ensures compatibility with a wide range of floor finishes, including tiles, carpet, and laminate.
How Does the Hush Panel 23 Work?
The Hush Panel 23 works by creating a floating floor system that isolates the floor finish from the underlying structure.
Impact Noise Reduction:
The 5mm Hushfelt Resilient Layer absorbs vibrations and impact sounds caused by footsteps, furniture movement, and other surface activities.
Airborne Noise Minimisation:
When paired with the mass of masonry or concrete structures, it enhances the overall acoustic insulation, blocking airborne noise transmission between rooms.
Structural Decoupling:
By decoupling the floor finish from the concrete or masonry subfloor, it prevents sound waves from travelling directly through the structure.
This combination makes the Hush Panel 23 an effective solution for reducing noise in multi-occupancy buildings, offices, and homes.
What is the Hush Panel 23 Made Of?
The Hush Panel 23 is composed of two carefully engineered layers:
18mm Moisture-Resistant Tongued and Grooved MDF Panel:
Provides a stable and durable base for various flooring finishes.
5mm Hushfelt Resilient Layer:
A flexible acoustic underlay that absorbs impact energy and reduces noise transmission.
This lightweight yet dense construction ensures the panel is durable, effective, and easy to install.
How Effective is the Hush Panel 23 at Stopping Nuisance Noise?
The Hush Panel 23 excels at reducing impact noise, which is a common challenge in masonry constructions:
Impact Noise: The resilient Hushfelt layer absorbs and dampens vibrations caused by footsteps, dropped items, or moving furniture.
Regulatory Compliance: It meets and exceeds the impact performance criteria outlined in UK Building Regulations for masonry structures.
Improved Living Comfort: By reducing noise transmission, the Hush Panel 23 creates quieter, more comfortable spaces for occupants in multi-unit developments or shared environments.
Where Can the Hush Panel 23 Be Used?
The Hush Panel 23 is suitable for a variety of applications:
New Build Developments: Ideal for concrete floors in multi-unit residential and commercial buildings.
Refurbishment Projects: Provides a thin overlay solution for existing masonry or concrete structures, minimising height adjustments.
Multi-Occupancy Buildings: Perfect for flats, offices, hotels, and other spaces where noise control is essential.
Educational and Healthcare Facilities: Reduces noise pollution, promoting focus and comfort.
Areas with Limited Ceiling Height: Its thin profile makes it ideal for locations where conserving room height is critical.
How to Install the Hush Panel 23
Prepare the Surface:
Ensure the subfloor is clean, level, and free of debris.
Plan the Layout:
Lay the panels in a broken bond pattern, ensuring no panels are smaller than 150mm.
Leave a 10-15mm gap along all perimeters using Hush Seal 20 Perimeter Seal or Hush RD Flanking Strips to create an airtight seal.
Position the Panels:
Place the panels with the Hushfelt layer facing down for optimal acoustic performance.
Glue the Joints:
Apply Hush Bond Panel Adhesive generously to all tongue-and-groove joints, ensuring a secure fit.
Seal the Perimeters:
Fill any gaps between the panel edges and walls using the perimeter seal for a complete acoustic barrier.
Finish the Installation:
Avoid mechanical fastenings that penetrate the floating floor to maintain its soundproofing integrity.

What are the Benefits of Using the Hush Panel 23?
Cost-Effective: Provides an economical solution for achieving impact noise regulations in masonry structures.
Space-Saving Design: Its thin 23mm profile minimises floor build-up, making it ideal for projects with height restrictions.
Regulatory Compliance: Fully meets UK Building Regulations and Robust Details standards for acoustic performance.
Enhanced Comfort: Reduces noise transmission, improving living and working conditions.
Durable and Moisture-Resistant: The high-quality MDF layer ensures long-lasting performance and compatibility with various flooring finishes.
Versatility: Suitable for use in both new builds and refurbishments over concrete and timber floors.
How to Tile on Top of an Overlay System
Select Suitable Materials:
Use tile adhesives and grouts designed for floating floors. Consult the manufacturer for specific recommendations.
Overlay the Panels:
Apply a proprietary tile board or plywood layer over the Hush Panel 23 for additional water resistance and stiffness. Ensure this layer is securely bonded.
Choose Appropriate Tiles:
Opt for porcelain tiles and avoid heavy options like marble, which are prone to cracking.
Use tiles no larger than 600mm x 600mm; smaller sizes (e.g., 450mm x 450mm) are preferable.
Apply Adhesive:
Spread adhesive evenly across the overlay layer to create a secure bond.
Following these steps ensures a stable and durable tiled surface while maintaining the acoustic benefits of the Hush Panel 23.

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.
