The FluxCore Effectvisually explained.

A softer inner core. A firmer outer core. A different approach to the connection between a room and its structure. Watch the FluxCore film, then explore the measured performance of the complete wall system.

01 / Decouple

Rethink the connection.

FluxCore combines two elastomer cores in the mechanical connection supporting the lining. The softer inner core works within a firmer outer core.

The FluxCore Effect — technically explained ↓

ENGINEERED TO SUPPORT The load-bearing side of FluxCore

More load per clip.
More freedom to build.

Soft core. Serious support. FluxCore pairs multi-density decoupling with a load-bearing steel clip. Use the capacity for substantial board mass and additional local equipment loads — from studio loudspeakers to private-cinema installations. Fewer clips where suitable. More load headroom where it matters.

SINTEF / CEILING PULL-OUT475 N per clip.

Calculated permissible ceiling load with safety factor 2.5 — about 48.4 kg mass equivalent. Mean laboratory failure load: 1,503.5 N. Wall shear has separate 350 N guidance for intended decoupling function.

FluxCore clip and furring channel mounted to timber framing
THE CONNECTION BEHIND THE FINISHFluxCore Clip + Furring Channel

STUDIOS + PRIVATE CINEMAS Beyond evenly distributed board weight

Heavy speakers.
More room to design.

Higher capacity at each clip is not only about using fewer clips. It also creates useful load headroom for substantial ceiling linings, projector mounts, Atmos speakers and other equipment carried by a properly designed isolated structure.

Put the capacity where the room needs it.

01 / WALL-MOUNTED SOUND

Loudspeakers. Brackets. Backing.

Plan the loudspeaker and its mount into the decoupled structure. Use suitable reinforcement and a defined path to the clips, rather than treating the plasterboard as the support.

02 / OVERHEAD EQUIPMENT

Projectors and Atmos speakers.

Build equipment loads into the ceiling design from the start. The 475 N figure is the SINTEF-derived permissible load for the tested clip/channel ceiling orientation; anchors, backing, leverage and any required secondary restraint still need their own checks.

03 / STUDIO INSTALLATIONS

Acoustic modules and hardware.

Allow for fixtures and local weight concentrations, not just the lining. The clip layout can be reinforced locally while preserving the intended isolated mounting concept.

PER-CLIP LOAD BUDGET / CEILING EXAMPLE

Same support area.
Different load headroom.

For this comparison only, every clip supports 0.36 m² at 30 kg/m²: 10.8 kg of uniformly distributed ceiling lining load. A common 600 × 600 mm grid isolates the per-clip capacity comparison from the separate wall-spacing example below.

Load-budget illustration, not a rated point load. Reserve at one clip is not a permissible loudspeaker weight, and reserves cannot simply be added to rate a mount. Bracket leverage, unequal load sharing, channels, backing, anchors and dynamic forces govern the actual equipment design. The sources use different load definitions; this is not a matched load test.

CEILING CAPACITY + WALL GUIDANCE

48 kg overhead.
Separate wall guidance.

For ceiling pull-out, SINTEF calculated a permissible load of 475 N per clip using a 2.5 safety factor — approximately 48.4 kg mass equivalent. The mean laboratory failure load was 1,503.5 N. This is the relevant headline capacity for suspended ceilings and overhead equipment planning.

Wall shear behaves differently. There, the draft report recommends limiting load to 350 N (about 35.7 kg mass equivalent) with the intended decoupling function in mind, based on deformation behaviour. Neither figure is an acoustic rating at that load.

Load-budget assumptions and sources

The 30 kg/m² supported mass is an illustrative design input, not the measured weight of a named ceiling. The common 600 × 600 mm field gives 10.8 kg per clip. FluxCore ceiling: 475 N ÷ 9.80665 = approximately 48.44 kg mass equivalent; arithmetic reserve approximately 37.64 kg in this illustration. IsoMax: 16.3293 kg with 25 ga channel leaves 5.5293 kg arithmetic reserve; 21.7724 kg with 22 ga channel leaves 10.9724 kg. Both plotted IsoMax values use the manufacturer's 2.5:1 safety-factor column. Its alternative 2:1 column gives 20.4117 kg and 27.2155 kg, respectively. Each 16 kg comparator limit gives 5.2 kg arithmetic reserve. MuteClip's separate 12 kg planning target gives 1.2 kg reserve. Rounding is for display only.

FluxCore source: SINTEF PR26-00288, version 01, 14 August 2026. For ceiling pull-out, the report calculates 475 N permissible load with safety factor 2.5 from a mean laboratory failure load of 1,503.5 N. For wall shear, the report separately recommends 350 N with the intended decoupling function in mind, based on deformation behaviour. Neither value is an acoustic measurement at that load. The complete wall's low-frequency measurements were made separately and do not establish unchanged acoustic performance at every equipment load or a tested acoustic advantage over competing clips under concentrated loads.

IsoMax source: Kinetics installation guidelines, page 2, published by Kinetics Group. The capacity depends on channel gauge and is calculated from tests in which the channel deforms and pulls out; it is not a separate limit established by acoustic testing. Kinetics lists the same design-load table for wall shear and ceiling tension. The 2.5:1 factor is suggested for more critical life-safety applications; the manufacturer also lists 2:1 values. Its maximum spacing is 1,219 mm along channels and 610 mm between channels, subject to the load and installation requirements. The 600 × 600 mm illustration above is a common comparison grid, not an IsoMax installation prescription. Neither load row is asserted to be the specific gauge of acoustic test AT001058.

MuteClip: manufacturer maximum load and 75% planning guidance ↗
GenieClip RST: manufacturer maximum design load ↗

Higher per-clip capacity can be allocated to spacing or to additional local loads; it cannot be counted twice. The System Planner provides a material and layout starting point, not an engineered equipment-mount rating.

THE CAPACITY ADVANTAGE / MADE VISIBLE

Same area. Same lining mass.
Fewer clips.

See what greater capacity per clip can enable. This example compares a 600 × 1,200 mm FluxCore layout with MuteClip's published 600 × 600 mm stud-wall grid — before perimeter and detail requirements.

50% fewer clipsin this regular-field comparison

Four rather than eight isolation points carry the same illustrative mass. Fewer clip units to place where the construction allows — not a claim of 50% lower project cost, installation time or better acoustic isolation.

These are repeating sections of a larger wall, not two complete wall installations. Boundary clips, openings, joints and concentrated loads can change the final count. The assumed mass includes everything carried by that lining; it is not the measured weight or acoustic result of a specific assembly.

THE LOAD BEHIND THE LAYOUT

Compare the load basis.
Not just the spacing.

FluxCore / primary ceiling rating

475 N≈48.4 kg mass equivalent

SINTEF calculated permissible ceiling load with safety factor 2.5. Separate wall guidance is 350 N (≈35.7 kg) for intended decoupling function. Neither is a separate acoustic rating at that load.

MuteClip / manufacturer limits

16 kg maximum12 kg planning target

iKoustic aims for no more than 75% of its published maximum load. Neither figure is a measured failure load.

GenieClip RST / manufacturer limit

16 kg per clip600 × 1,200 mm standard spacing

Pliteq also publishes the wider spacing. The distinction here is capacity per clip, not a claim that every competitor uses a denser grid. Spacing must suit the chosen lining weight.

Different source definitions and test bases are shown explicitly; this is not a matched load test. No remaining capacity is being promised for a speaker or projector at a single board fixing. Equipment loads need suitable backing, distribution and project-specific design.

Calculation basis and source references

Calculation: area per clip = row spacing × spacing along the row; clip density = 1 ÷ area per clip; illustrative load per clip = 30 kg/m² × area per clip. Rounding is for display only. The 2.4 × 1.2 m repeating field contains 4 clips at 600 × 1,200 mm or 8 clips at 600 × 600 mm.

FluxCore: the illustrated grid is a ProSilence planning assumption, not a universal board-manufacturer approval or an additional SINTEF test. The load recommendation is from SINTEF PR26-00288, version 01, 14 August 2026. Read the full distinction between failure load, strength-based permissible load and intended-function load below.

MuteClip manufacturer FAQ / maximum and planning load ↗
GenieClip RST manufacturer FAQ / load and standard spacing ↗

Source check: 17 September 2026. Capacities are per clip in the specified use, not the load capacity of the complete wall, its channels, its backing or an arbitrary equipment fixing. Comparison is for regular wall fields, not ceilings.

01 / BOARD LAYERS

Build with mass.

Design multi-layer gypsum-fibre linings as a complete load-bearing assembly. Select the number and spacing of clips for the board weight, compound and finish.

02 / EQUIPMENT

Plan for more than plasterboard.

Include speakers, projector mounts and other equipment in the load plan. Use suitable backing, fasteners and additional clips where concentrated loads require them.

03 / THE WHOLE SYSTEM

Keep the load path isolated.

Design the mount into the decoupled structure rather than unintentionally bridging it. Check the complete connection, not the clip alone.

Equipment mounting requires project-specific design for total load, local load distribution, leverage, backing and anchors. A per-clip figure is not a permissible load on an arbitrary screw in a gypsum board, and the board weight already uses part of the system capacity.

Mechanical test results, recommended loads and comparison basis

SINTEF PR26-00288, version 01, 14 August 2026: four samples in each orientation. The test results below are from the available draft report. Mechanical capacity and acoustic behaviour under load are different questions.

Report recommendation for intended acoustic functionAcoustic performance at the 475 N load was not assessed in this mechanical test.Limit to 350 N
About 35.7 kg mass equivalent; recommendation based on deformation behaviour, not a separate acoustic test at this load

Failure loads are not working loads. On walls, the report's 350 N recommendation takes precedence over the higher strength-based calculation when preserving the intended decoupling function. The report calls for each installation to be designed individually.

Selected competitor reference: Pliteq publishes a maximum design load of 16 kg for GenieClip RST. iKoustic publishes a maximum of 16 kg for MuteClip and recommends planning below 75% of that maximum. These are manufacturer load definitions, not results of the same test method or evidence that either product fails at 16 kg. No ratio of break strength to a competitor's working load is presented.

Laboratory tested and classified B-s1,d0. BST Testing (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. classified the FluxCore U-boat according to EN 13501-1:2018, report XDD06260125071501FAR, dated 15 July 2026. The classification basis includes EN 13823:2020+A1:2022 and EN ISO 11925-2:2020 testing.

Scope matters: the classification applies to the tested FluxCore U-boat product parameters, with A1 or A2 substrates and mechanical fixing as stated in the report. It is a reaction-to-fire classification of the tested product — not an EI/REI fire-resistance rating for a complete wall, ceiling or floor, and not a type approval or product certification.

* The same FluxCore elastomer material is used in FluxCore Clip. The EN 13501-1 classification report itself identifies the U-boat as the tested product.

The laboratory measurements are complete. The formal report is pending. The corrected nominal wall thickness is 182 mm: 98 mm timber framing + four 12.5 mm gypsum-fibre boards + 34 mm clip offset on the isolated side. This replaces the earlier 150 mm figure; the acoustic measurement values are unchanged. The measured acoustic figures are not simulations or estimates.

ProSilence: SINTEF 102036124-2-1, test date 25 August 2026, marked provisional/internal use only. The manufacturer-corrected nominal build-up is 98 mm timber frame + four 12.5 mm gypsum-fibre boards (50 mm total) + 34 mm clip offset on the inside = 182 mm. This replaces the earlier 150 mm figure, which omitted the clip offset. The dimension is calculated from the stated component sizes; the unchanged acoustic values come from SINTEF laboratory measurements.

IsoMax AT001058: Kinetics identifies Riverbank Acoustical Laboratories / RAL TL02-40 as the external testing agency for this wall. Kinetics separately publishes 31.5–80 Hz values and states that these supplementary values were calculated at additional test frequencies from measurements made using ASTM E90-99 procedures; Kinetics explicitly classifies them as unofficial research-and-development data, not part of the standard test range. The 50/63/80 Hz points shown here are therefore external-lab-derived measurements with manufacturer-published supplementary calculations, not an in-house simulation.

Knauf W623: Knauf report SWC 21 093-05 documents an approximately 185 mm finished wall depth and third-octave sound reduction of 19.6 dB at 50 Hz, 23.7 dB at 63 Hz and 39.0 dB at 80 Hz. The test was carried out at Knauf Gips KG Iphofen to ISO 10140-2 and is used here because the complete wall depth is closely matched to the 182 mm FluxCore assembly.

MuteClip Double: iKoustic publishes the 50/63/80 Hz values in its MuteClip Systems Performance Data and links that material as lab-performance data. The cited sheet lists source and receiving room volumes and the treated timber-wall construction, but it does not identify the laboratory or an independent report number. We therefore label it as manufacturer-published lab-performance data with the laboratory not identified, rather than calling it independently verified. Approximately 184 mm remains a calculated total, not a measured overall dimension in the sheet.

GenieClip TL07-670: Pliteq publishes TL07-670 as a test-report reference for the 197 mm timber wall and publishes 31 dB at 80 Hz and 39 dB at 100 Hz. Pliteq states that GenieClip assemblies are laboratory tested and its specification requires assembly testing in NVLAP-certified laboratories; the brochure cited for TL07-670 does not name the laboratory. We therefore identify it as published test-report data and avoid assigning a specific laboratory that the source does not state. No 50 or 63 Hz values are published for this assembly in the cited brochure.

The homepage is deliberately limited to 50-80 Hz; the linked source material is not truncated. The substantially thicker 254 mm IsoMax AT001090 wall and other non-matched wall configurations are outside this initial comparison. Adding two further 12.5 mm boards on the stiff side would make a nominal 207 mm wall (182 + 25 mm), with two layers on the isolated side and four on the stiff side. This proposed assembly is not represented by the current acoustic curve; a future test must have its own results, date, layer schedule and measured thickness.

SINTEF measured the complete wall according to ISO 10140-2. The overall result is Rw (C; Ctr) = 61 (−1; −5) dB. The measured wall, the planner's room and the individual components are different scopes; no automatic acoustic rating is assigned to the planner output.

These are project-specific field results, not a universal product rating. DnT,w and R′w are two ratings derived from the same field measurement and should not be treated as two independent performance claims.

Receiving-room condition: the receiving room was almost unfurnished at the time of measurement and therefore unusually reverberant. Furnishing the room will reduce reverberation and the perceived transmitted sound level in normal use. The published DnT,w and R′w figures already include standardized reverberation corrections; the approximately 5 dB difference between them primarily reflects their different normalization methods and the room/partition geometry, rather than a performance gap that is expected to disappear as furniture is added.

When expressed as DnT,w, the Class A threshold is 62 dB for airborne sound insulation between a dwelling and rooms outside it. The measured 72 dB is 10 dB above that level. ISO/TS 19488 is an international classification framework, not an EU-wide building regulation.

NORWAY / NS 8175:2023CLASS A · +4 dB

The Holmenkollen measurement report classifies the measured R′w = 67 dB as Sound Class A under NS 8175:2023, against the report's stated Class A threshold of 63 dB. The result is therefore 4 dB above the highest class threshold stated in the project report.

The low-frequency comparison above uses controlled laboratory data. Overall installed performance is documented with field measurements from completed projects. Additional measured installations will be added as they are completed.

03 The core of the system

Three roles.
One system approach.

Explore the components at the heart of ProSilence, then build the supporting layers around them. The System Planner connects both in one practical project schedule.

FluxCore Clip for wall and ceiling decoupling

Walls + ceilings / Decouple

FluxCore Clip

Connect the lining to the structure through the isolation system, with ProSilence channels carrying the board layers.
