The latest research and development of wood-based soundproof flooring in China are summarized in this paper.The basic characteristics,classifications,and soundproof mechanisms were covered.Lack of quantitative performance evaluation and quality assurance made it difficult to establish appropriate product standards for soundproof flooring.Development of non-cork material for the soundproofing the flooring provided an alternative solution to the current scarce cork raw material supply.Discussions and suggestions would provide some useful insights for Chinese soundproof flooring manufacturers in future product development and improvement.
