Why Sites Skip Stair Protection at Their Peril
Furniture and appliance moves are where stairs suffer most. A rigid board turns a risky carry into a routine trip.
Inside the Board: Honeycomb Core Plus Felt Face
For stairs, a board that lies flat and stays flat is everything. The felt-backed honeycomb core does exactly that.
- Fire-Retardant Variants — Sites with strict fire codes can specify retarded boards without giving up the reusable honeycomb advantage.
- 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.
- 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.
- Absorbs Impacts — Drops, ladders, and tool carts are the usual culprits behind chipped tiles and dented timber. The honeycomb structure spreads the load so the surface below stays intact.
- Lower Total Cost — Reuse beats repaint. A small fleet of boards replaces repeated purchases of disposable film and the labour of fixing avoidable damage.
- Load Bearing — The honeycomb core supports carts, scaffolding, and staged materials, so protection does not mean closing off the workspace.
Best Uses for Felt PP Honeycomb Stair Board
On real sites, the board proves its value wherever finished surfaces meet ongoing work:
- Public-building refurbishment
- Moving furniture between levels
- Stair renovations and resurfacing
- Painting and rendering stairwells
- Builds using material hoists
Choosing Thickness, Size and Backing
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. For sites that need it, ask about our professional variant.
Common Questions
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.
Can it handle furniture moves?
The honeycomb core absorbs the knocks from appliances and fittings being carried between levels.
