Quiet and resilient: a powerful solution for wood flooring and laminate flooring
The SELITPRO® XPO 2 mm is a true all-rounder for a high level of living comfort. Made from high-performance polyolefin foam, it reliably protects your floor from damage caused by heavy loads. In addition, it reduces walking and impact sound and, thanks to its flexible foam structure, compensates for small areas of unevenness.
Great room acoustics thanks to peak values in walking sound
Before installation, please note: Check the base in accordance with CEN/TS 14472 and ensure that the quality of the base is suitable for proper processing. In general, the base should be clean, level, dry, resistant to tension and compression and should not contain any substances such as plasticisers, solvents or other diffusing substances. It must be ensured that the base is in a state of equilibrium humidity and that the CM value is below 2.0 % (for cement screed) or below 0.5 % (for anhydrite screed and anhydrite flowing screed). The processing instructions of the flooring manufacturer are to be observed as binding specifications.
Cleaning the surface
Cleaning the surface
Step 1 Clean the surface thoroughly with a brush or vacuum cleaner. Remove any adhesive and paint residues completely.
Applying the moisture protection
Applying the moisture protection
Step 2 Mineral bases need protection against rising moisture. Cover the room completely with SELITstop® Comfort Vapour Barrier. Allow the joints to overlap by approx. 5 cm and seal them in a vapour-tight manner with SELITstop® Aluminium-Foil Sealing Tape.

Step 3 In the wall connection area, place the film in a trough-like position at approx. 3-4 cm to protect against moisture and fix to the wall with SELITstop® Aluminium-Foil Sealing Tape. Alternatively, use SELITstop® Moulding Protection Belt. In this case, install the moisture protection film flush with the wall.
