18mm Chipboard Flooring Moisture Resistance

P5 18mm chipboard flooring is flooring-grade chipboard manufactured for load-bearing structural applications where moisture fluctuation and high humidity pose a problem. P5 board can withstand high levels of humidity, which will ensure the longevity of your materials and protect the structure of your home.

P5 Chipboard Tongue & Groove Design 

One of the biggest benefits of purchasing these boards is that they guarantee quick and easy installation. The board's tongue and groove edges ensure it slots perfectly into adjacent boards.

The lattice-like pattern the T&G flooring creates promotes joint strength so that underfloor materials won't move or become unstuck.

18mm Chipboard Flooring Installation & Handling

Where other construction materials require expensive adhesives, tools, and equipment, installing P5 flooring is simple. We recommend using either screws or nails to secure the boards; you can even use wood screws. Screw the boards into the joists according to the joist variation. This, along with the interlaced edge, will create a long-lasting, secure bond.

Always store in dry conditions before installation. Dry conditions will allow P5 to maintain its moisture-resistant properties.
