Different solutions for trunk floors recently presented on the market have been collated and investigated in order to better define the possible features integrated and the acoustic performance of trunk load floors. A description protocol has been devised and applied to systematically categorize the whole set of features potentially characterizing a trunk floor, and the wide range of solutions used with respect to materials, processes and design configurations. The acoustic performance has been specifically addressed with the evaluation of the acoustic absorption on both sides and a specific testing procedure to evaluate the noise insulation capability provided by actual parts.
