General:
SEMPAFLOOR is a unique insulating lining specifically designed for application to a wide range of floors. SEMPAFLOOR can be used as either thermal insulation for cold surfaces or as acoustic insulation where impact noise is a problem. In both situations it is an excellent, easy to install, economical solution. For over 20 years SEMPAFLOOR has been specified and successfully used by Local Authorities, Housing Associations, County Authorities, commercial and industrial outlets throughout the UK and Europe.
Condensation and Thermal Performance:
SEMPAFLOOR can be used on concrete floors, solid floors and is particularly useful where “cold bridging” is the cause of condensation and mould growth. SEMPAFLOOR provides an excellent thermal barrier to prevent transmission of cold and will also reduce heat loss and provide substantial energy saving. It overcomes the problem of foam backed carpets sweating up against concrete floors and the age old complaints of “rising damp” in the middle of the floor.
SEMPAFLOOR can be used on any type of floor and is ideal for use on “flying bedrooms”, rooms over garages or driveways, rooms over external passageways, park home floors and rooms over cellars/basements.
Acoustic Insulation:
SEMPAFLOOR can be used on all types of floor construction to reduce noise problems. It has excellent acoustic insulation ability and is particularly good for reduction of impact sound. SEMPAFLOOR has been tested by two independent authorities and the results show a dramatic reduction in the level of noise.
Impact Sound Transmission
Technical Information:
SEMPAFLOOR is made from a natural material, latex, with a non woven polyester surface which provides an ideal finish for the application of all types of floor covering including carpet vinyl, wood panel and tiles. The product is flexible and provides excellent indentation recovery which allows the use of SEMPAFLOOR in the heaviest of traffic areas. SEMPAFLOOR will not deteriorate or crumble and is very hard wearing and resilient to point loading.

SEMPAFLOOR is supplied in rolls 12.5 long and 1 metre wide. Floor surfaces require minimal preparation and in most circumstances it is not necessary to remove skirting.
SURFACE PREPARATION
ensure floor surface is firm, dry, free from dust, mould, grease and all other contaminants. Screw down loose, squeaking floor boards. Mould contaminated surfaces must be sterilised using RLT BACTDET 05. Dilute at 1:4 with warm water and apply by brush, cloth or sponge to remove mould. Allow surfaces to dry thoroughly
Apply
one coat of SEMPATAP ADHESIVE with SEMPATAP ADHESIVE SPREADER, notched trowel or medium pile roller to an area not more than 5-6 square metres, 1 metre width.
On timber floors Sempafloor can also be fixed using a staple gun.
Unroll
first metre of SEMPAFLOOR (keep remainder rolled-up), and apply foam side to wet adhesive. Smooth out using SEMPATAP SPATULA. Using SEMPATAP SPATULA tuck SEMPAFLOOR into wall/floor junction and/or under skirting.
Roll out
remainder of SEMPAFLOOR and ensure it is smoothed out using the SEMPATAP SPATULA and firmly positioned. Butt join subsequent lengths of SEMPAFLOOR and continue application until the entire floor is covered.
