Seems to be no doubt they are saying it can reduce flooring noise in the rooms the flooring is laid, which has certainly been my experience. LAMINATE/WOODFLOOR UNDERLAY This is a superb, heavy duty, heavy weight, acoustic underlay designed specifically to reduce the transfer of impact noise (walking/footfall) through floating laminate, engineered wood and solid timber floors. It also has an excellent Sone rating which means it also damps and reduces the amount of reflected walking around noise being thrown back into the room. The main problem with wooden/laminate floors is that when you walk on them much more impact as well as airborne noise is produced (due to the hard surface) and this can often be a nuisance to the people living below as well as inside the room where the flooring is laid.
