Why Sites Skip Floor Protection at Their Peril
Trades move fast, and a bare floor is a floor waiting for a dropped fitting or a dragged appliance. The repair almost always costs more than the protection.
Why Crews Choose Felt PP Honeycomb
Rolling out a felt-backed PP honeycomb board is like giving the floor its own crash mat. The engineered core takes the hits that would otherwise mark timber, tile, or stone.
- 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.
- Breathable Option — Open-cell formats let moisture escape, reducing the risk of trapped damp on sensitive substrates during long projects.
- 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.
- Non-Slip Felt Backing — The felt layer grips the substrate and stays put under foot traffic, so crews are not constantly re-laying shifted sheets.
- 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.
Where It Earns Its Keep
On real sites, the board proves its value wherever finished surfaces meet ongoing work:
- Residential renovations and remodels
- Painting and decorating projects
- Kitchen and bath upgrades
- Tenant move-in and move-out
- Model homes and staging
How to Specify the Right Board
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. Standard boards suit most projects; bespoke sizes are available on request.
FAQ
Will it slip on polished tile?
The felt backing is designed to grip the substrate, so it stays in place under normal foot traffic without extra taping.
Can crews walk on it straight away?
Yes. The board is laid and immediately walkable, with the felt backing keeping it stable on tile, timber, or concrete.
