SHEET OVERLAYS AND UNDERLAYS
We produce our XPE foam overlays and underlays for a range of different fields of use. From frost protection<br />
right through to parquet underlays – we always have just the right solution in our product range.<br />
Summary<br />
• As frost protection for newly poured concrete<br />
• As footfall sound insulation in housing construction<br />
under floating floor screed in accordance with<br />
DIN 18560 Part 2<br />
• As a leveller of uneven surfaces on solid mineral<br />
substrates<br />
• As an underlay beneath floating laminate and<br />
parquet flooring<br />
The <strong>Geficell</strong>® Concrete <strong>Overlays</strong> protect the newly<br />
poured concrete from frost. In order to avoid<br />
any damage, our concrete overlays are placed<br />
immediately on the freshly laid concrete layer and<br />
kept there if possible throughout the entire<br />
hardening process.<br />
<strong>Geficell</strong>® PE TDZ - 6.0 -1.0 acts as footfall sound<br />
insulation. In order to avoid footfall noise, it is<br />
important that the floating floor screed does not<br />
come into direct contact with the adjoining structural<br />
elements.<br />
Gefinex® parquet and laminate sheet<br />
underlays protect the floor covering from damage<br />
caused by unevenness and moisture. They also have<br />
sound-insulating properties.<br />
<strong>Geficell</strong>® Basic PE foam insulating underlays have<br />
already proven themselves some 100,000 times over<br />
and serve above all as a method of levelling out uneven<br />
substrates.<br />
Gefinex® PE sheet overlays and underlays are available in the following variants:<br />
<strong>Geficell</strong>® PE TDZ- 6.0 -1.0 Footfall Sound Insulation<br />
<strong>Geficell</strong>® PE Concrete Overlay<br />

PE TDZ- 6.0 -1.0<br />
Footfall Sound Insulation<br />
<strong>Geficell</strong>®<br />
PE Concrete Overlay<br />
Walking over floors or pushing chairs, for example, results in<br />
noise that is carried as structure-borne vibrations in adjoining<br />
structural elements and perceived acoustically as airborne<br />
sound in neighbouring rooms. <strong>Geficell</strong>® PE TDZ- 6.0 -1.0<br />
Footfall Sound Insulation, made from closed-cell PE foam,<br />
achieves an improvement in footfall sound of up to 19 dB.<br />
Please take the general building inspectorate approval and<br />
laying guidelines into consideration during planning and<br />
installation.<br />
Areas of Use<br />
As footfall sound insulation in housing construction under floating<br />
floor screed in accordance with DIN 18560 Part 2.<br />
Properties<br />
• Improvement in footfall sound of 19 dB<br />
• Can be used for traffic loads of up to 2 kN/m2<br />
• Compressibility = 1 mm<br />
• General building inspectorate approval (‚abZ‘)<br />
• Fire performance in accordance with DIN 4102 -1 = B2<br />
The <strong>Geficell</strong>® PE Concrete Overlay protects newly laid<br />
concrete from frost and reduces the risk of cracks forming<br />
as a result of temperature variations and the drying process<br />
being too fast. The overlay is impermeable to water and does<br />
not have to be covered with an additional layer to protect<br />
it against moisture penetration. Furthermore, the overlay is<br />
tearproof and resistant to most leaches, acids and oils. The PE<br />
Concrete <strong>Overlays</strong> can either be glued to one another or<br />
welded using hot air. They should be stored in a dry place<br />
away from direct sunlight.<br />
Areas of Use<br />
As frost protection for freshly poured concrete.<br />
Properties<br />
• High imperviousness to water<br />
• High tensile strength and resistance to most acids,<br />
leaches and oils<br />
• Low in weight<br />
• Fire class B3<br />

<strong>Geficell</strong>®<br />
PE Parquet underlay<br />
Comfort 120<br />
Gefinex®<br />
Parquet and laminate sheet underlays<br />
fulfill important functions in the laying of parquet and<br />
laminate floors. They protect the flooring from damage<br />
caused by unevenness and moisture. They also have<br />
sound-insulating properties.<br />
All sheet underlays are categorised into the building<br />
material class B2 in accordance with DIN 4102<br />
and are suitable for underfloor heating.<br />
Parquet and laminate sheet underlays do not require<br />
softening agents or other additives. They can also<br />
be used in interiors without any risks.<br />
<strong>Geficell</strong>® PE Comfort 120 is the sheet underlay for higher<br />
demands with a density of approx. 120 kg/m3. It is highly<br />
elastic and impresses with its high degree of permanent<br />
pressure resistance. In comparison with the <strong>Geficell</strong>® PE Parquet<br />
Underlay, <strong>Geficell</strong>® Comfort 120 produces a significant<br />
enhancement in footfall and walking sound insulation<br />
performance.<br />

Our products are as varied<br />
as our customers.<br />
Throughout the whole of Europe and beyond, I am responsible for the distribution of our<br />
products in my role as Export Manager at Gefinex. Regional differences, the varying<br />
mindsets and business practices of individual nations, and the varied demands on modern<br />
products are what pose a particular challenge in my daily work.<br />
In order to realise a high level of customer satisfaction both in terms of support and above<br />
all in terms of specific product requirements, a close and open dialogue with all departments<br />
across the company is absolutely crucial in my view. All issues are discussed in these exchanges<br />
that are important to our customers and their success in their respective markets. The<br />
focus here is on innovation and sustainability, efficiency and the environment in particular –<br />
with a view to being able to offer individual solutions at all times. Individuality is the most important factor I have to consider<br />
when building up long-term business relations. This is reflected in specific customer requirements such as certain product<br />
properties, Areas of Use and individual and societal needs.<br />
In order to find the right solutions for each of these requirements, we focus on having a strong team that is in a position to<br />
live up to ecological and economical demands, as well as provide innovation, and to implement these in the form of new<br />
and changed products. Implementing our products into the customers’ systems requires a high degree of innovation and<br />
constant product management, in close collaboration with research and development. In this respect I can rely on the internal<br />
departments at Gefinex, which make sure our products are designed as diversely as our diverse customer base. The number<br />
one objective of my work is to keep to our quality promise „Made in Germany“ with every single product.<br />
