THE QUIETEST FLOORS
IN THE INDUSTRY
Art, backed by science. Milliken delivers the quietest hard and soft flooring solutions in the industry.
WHY DO ACOUSTICS MATTER?
HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
Noise is unpleasant, often causing stress which affects mental and physical health. In workspaces with excessive noise, absenteeism actually increases. In medical facilities, the stress of noise can inhibit recovery and healing. In hospitality settings, it can defeat the purpose of rest and relaxation.

WHY DO ACOUSTICS MATTER?
PRODUCTIVITY AND PERFORMANCE
Noise can have an adverse effect on productivity and concentration. This is especially true in office and educational environments. Any kind of distraction or disruption can hinder worker and student focus and performance.

WHY DO ACOUSTICS MATTER?
OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE
We are part of a Creative Collective empowered to design indoor environments that are functional and aesthetically pleasing. In essence, designers create positive experiences. Great design enhances the quality of life of the people who occupy our spaces, and acoustics play an important role.

There are two types of commercial carpet backing: hardback and cushion. We believe strongly that cushion backing is the best choice — so much so that we use WellBAC™ cushion backing on all of our carpet tile products, as standard.
SOFT SURFACE
INCREASED DURABILITY
WellBAC™ cushion backing can prolong the life expectancy of carpet tiles by 40-50% compared with hardback products.

SOFT SURFACE
UNPARALLELED MOISTURE MANAGEMENT
WellBAC™ cushion backing is permeable, meaning that water vapor molecules can pass through your carpet and evaporate away.

CHEMICAL NON-REACTIVITY
Milliken's WellBAC™ cushion backing is chemically inert, so there's no risk of an adverse reaction with old products from a previous install.

SOFT SURFACE
NOISE REDUCTION
Milliken WellBAC™ cushion backed carpet tiles absorb 50% more noise than hardback carpet, which in turn absorb three times as much noise as hard surface flooring.

THE CHALLENGES OF DESIGNING FOR QUIET
Flooring is one of the biggest structural components affecting interior acoustics. With the popularity of luxury vinyl tiles and other smooth flooring surfaces, this can be a significant challenge for designers. Hard surfaces are noisy and do not absorb sound. They tend to reflect it back into the room or transmit it through the floor into spaces below.
That's why FLEXFORM SOUND™ LVT is a game-changer.
HARD SURFACE
QUIETER THAN STANDARD LVT FLOORING
FLEXFORM SOUND™ LVT is 50% quieter than other LVT products currently on the market.

HARD SURFACE
A BETTER VALUE
FLEXFORM SOUND™ LVT also reduces installation time, because it doesn't require a separate acoustic underlayment like other LVT products do. You can increase performance while lowering labor costs.
