Natural NATSG100 is an underlayment designed to enhance the performance of laminate, hardwood, and engineered flooring. It offers excellent acoustical properties, reducing noise and improving soundproofing. With a thickness of 2 mm, it provides a smooth and even base for flooring installation. Its water vapor transmission rate of 0.31 lbs/24hrs/1000sq.ft helps protect against moisture damage, making it suitable for use in basements or areas requiring a moisture barrier. Easy to install, Natural NATSG100 comes with an attached tape for sealing seams and ensuring a secure, vapor-tight seal.

FOR LAMINATES, HARDWOOD AND ENGINEERED

Installation instructions

1. Check for nails.

2. Sweep or mop.

3. Roll out 1 width of membrane.

4. Cut roll at wall.

5. Install flooring planks.

6. Roll out next width.

7. Seal seams using the attached tape by removing paper strip and pressing the tape down to

adhere to membrane.

Repeat steps 3 to 7 until floor is completed.

NOTE: When installing Natural SG in basement or where a moisture barrier is required, extend the underlayment 1” - 2” up the

sides of all walls. To ensure the vapor barrier qualities of Natural SG are maintained, a vapor tape is required to seal all seams

that are not sealed by the Seal Guard system. New concrete should cure for 60-90 days minimum, before installing flooring

products. Check for excessive moisture in various areas before installation referring to flooring manufacturer’s recommendations.

Consult with your flooring specialist for additional instructions.
