Regufoam

What it is and does:
Regufoam is a vibration-isolating material made of polyurethane foam and prevents a sound or vibration source from transmitting resonances to the environment. Contact noise is reduced due to the decoupling effect. Regufoam is a high-quality and durable product and retains its elasticity for a long time. You use Regufoam to decouple pumps, generators, compressors, computers, servers, kitchen equipment and air conditioning units.

Applications
Various types of Regufoam (indicated by the letter D for Density) are available, making the product widely applicable for both industrial and private use.

• Home
  Regufoam D150 and D220 are suitable for many sound problems with impact noise in and around the house. Types with a thickness of 25 mm are used for low frequency resonances (heavy thump). The 12 mm thickness is used when the stability of equipment and machines when is required. As a ready-made solution, we also offer various damper sets, for example for washing machines, air conditioning or pumps.
  
• Industry
  For light industrial use you can use Regufoam as described on this page. It is advisable to contact us before decoupling heavy equipment and machines. Information needed for tailor-made advice is the weight, dimensions and rotational speed of the source in question.

What type of Regufoam do I need?
To decouple a vibration source with Regufoam, it is best to use a number of segments (see product photos) of approximately 100 x 100 mm, or slightly larger. When too much Regufoam is applied under a vibration source, too much resistance is created, making the source unstable. This increases the risk of wear due to wobbling machines or equipment. Sources with a high centre of gravity are prone to imbalance and can easily topple. Depending on the application, you can work with particles of approximately 100 x 100 mm with this scheme:

• Regufoam type D150 25 mm: 0 to 50 kg.
• Regufoam type D220 25mm: 50 to 100 kg.
• Regufoam type D300 25 mm: 100 to 250 kg

Examples from the product photos

• Photo 2, speaker: Regufoam D300, 4 parts of 100 x 100 x 25 mm.
• Photo 3 and 4, speaker: Regufoam D150, one mat of 500 x 250 x 25mm.
• Photo 5, electronic drum kit: Regufoam D150, various parts of 25 mm thick.
• Photo 6, studio floor: Regufoam D300, parts of 100 x 100 x 25 mm, every 40 cm.
• Photo 7, lathe: Regufoam D220, parts of 250 x 250 x 12 mm. Stability is important with this type of vibration source, with a high speed and a high centre of gravity. Note that the machine cannot swing due to its own frequency.

How to process
Regufoam can be cut to size with a sharp hobby knife and mounted with Zettex contact adhesive or Sikaflex mounting kit. For an optimal effect, we recommend that you place a sturdy sheet between the application (such as a washing machine, refrigerator, etc.) and the Regufoam to distribute the pressure evenly. This can be, for example, plywood. You also ensure that the whole can rest stably.

Properties

• Moisture-resistant (when used outside, wrap it waterproof in Acustitape against freezing).
• Insensitive to mould, insects, bacteria and rot.
• Fully recyclable.
• Regufoam is not self-adhesive.
