Why Stair Protection Pays Off
Stair treads take relentless abuse from foot traffic, moving furniture, and material handling. Once a nosing is chipped or a riser is gouged, repairs are disruptive and rarely invisible.
Inside the Board: Honeycomb Core Plus Felt Face
Each tread gets a felt-faced honeycomb shield that bends with the step and resists the knocks of daily site life.
- Lower Total Cost — Reuse beats repaint. A small fleet of boards replaces repeated purchases of disposable film and the labour of fixing avoidable damage.
- Lightweight Yet Rigid — Crews can carry and lay full sheets quickly without special equipment, then lift them just as easily at the end of the day.
- Fire-Retardant Variants — Sites with strict fire codes can specify retarded boards without giving up the reusable honeycomb advantage.
- Load Bearing — The honeycomb core supports carts, scaffolding, and staged materials, so protection does not mean closing off the workspace.
- Reusable for Dozens of Cycles — The PP honeycomb core springs back after impact and stays flat, so one board protects job after job instead of being discarded after a single use.
- Fast to Lay and Remove — Overlap the sheets and you are done. No tapes, clips, or curing time, which keeps the programme moving.
Application Scenarios
On real sites, the board proves its value wherever finished surfaces meet ongoing work:
- Public-building refurbishment
- Builds using material hoists
- Moving furniture between levels
- Stair renovations and resurfacing
- Painting and rendering stairwells
Choosing Thickness, Size and Backing
Match thickness to traffic. Light foot traffic is fine with 3-5 mm; cart and scaffolding zones need 8-10 mm. Choose felt backing where grip matters, and size sheets to cover the run with a small overlap. For sites that need it, ask about our heavy duty variant.
What Crews Ask Us Most
Can it handle furniture moves?
The honeycomb core absorbs the knocks from appliances and fittings being carried between levels.
Is it awkward to carry up stairs?
No. The panels are lightweight, so a single person can stage and lay a full flight without mechanical lifting.
Does it stay on the steps?
The felt backing grips each tread, and many crews add a single strip of low-tack tape at the nose for extra security on steep runs.
