Rockwool Sound Insulation Slabs and Sound Insulation Qualities

Hi all,

anyone used Rockwool Sound Insulation Slabs, they look like a good option for me, easy to slide under the floorboards.

Just keen to see if anyone has used and can advise on how much soundproofing they provide. Im looking at the 100mm think ones.

Thanks

Dom
