22mm Chipboard Flooring Moisture Resistance

With the P5 chipboard sheets, you will be able to tick 'sub-floor base' off your project list in no time.

One of the biggest benefits of moisture-resistant 22mm floorboards is that they are unaffected by humid conditions. 

Tongue and groove chipboard flooring is manufactured with a combination of special additives and chemicals that make it resistant to moisture.

When it comes to structural floor and refurbishment projects, it is important to choose sheets that meet industry specifications for problems like humidity. 

P5 22mm chipboard is especially effective when it is installed in conjunction with a build-up of moisture-resistant insulation. 

22mm Tongue and Groove Floorboards Installation

These 2400mm x 600mm chipboards have one main feature that sets them apart from standard sheets in the industry; their tongue and groove design allow them to slot together much like a jigsaw, creating a strong and durable subfloor.

With tongue and groove structures, joists remain strong, however, it is recommended that the T&G edges are glued as this improves the solidity of the joint and allows for some joist variation.

It should be noted, however, that installation is preferable in dry conditions due to the fact that the sheets are merely moisture-resistant, not waterproof.

We recommend installing each sheet alongside other materials that can withstand high levels of humidity.

Here at Materials Market, we sell a range of timber flooring solutions; both engineered and otherwise. All our timber is treated with preservatives, kiln dried, and then planed all around to give it eased edges that make them easy to lay, promising easy installation.
