The Real Cost of Unprotected Walls
Walls may seem sturdy, but a knocked ladder or a dragged panel leaves marks that buyers and inspectors notice immediately. Prevention is far cheaper than correction.
Inside the Board: Honeycomb Core Plus Felt Face
A felt-faced honeycomb panel leans against the wall and takes the abuse of passing crews and kit.
- Breathable Option — Open-cell formats let moisture escape, reducing the risk of trapped damp on sensitive substrates during long projects.
- Water, Paint & Dust Resistant — Spills bead on the surface and paint splatter wipes away, keeping the protected area clean through messy stages of the build.
- Shields Finish & Substrate — It forms a shock layer between the floor, stair, or wall and the work happening above, protecting both the visible finish and the structure beneath.
- Fire-Retardant Variants — Sites with strict fire codes can specify retarded boards without giving up the reusable honeycomb advantage.
- Lower Total Cost — Reuse beats repaint. A small fleet of boards replaces repeated purchases of disposable film and the labour of fixing avoidable damage.
- 100% Recyclable PP — When a board finally retires, the polypropylene is fully recyclable, supporting circular-site practice and ESG reporting.
Where It Earns Its Keep
On real sites, the board proves its value wherever finished surfaces meet ongoing work:
- Protection during demolition
- Moving large furniture and panels
- Elevator lobbies and entrances
- Hallway and corridor traffic
- Interior painting and plastering
How to Specify the Right Board
Specify by abuse, not by habit. Quiet refurbishments get by with 3-5 mm; busy fit-outs and material staging want 8-10 mm. Pick felt backing for grip and overlap sheets by a few centimetres. Standard boards suit most projects; bespoke sizes are available on request.
What Crews Ask Us Most
How is it fixed to the wall?
Most sites lean or hang the panel and secure the top edge, avoiding adhesive that could mark the finish.
Can it be reused between rooms?
Absolutely. Lift, move, and re-stand the same panel across multiple spaces on one project.
