EGGER Protect is the only chipboard flooring on the market, that once laid, can be exposed to the elements for up to 60 days.
Manufactured from EGGER P5 flooring grade particleboard, EGGER Protect features a durable, anti-slip, weather resistant surface layer applied to both sides of the board, resulting in permanent protection from moisture ingress before, during and after the build.
The robust surface of EGGER Protect has major benefits on site: the board can be fitted in light rain conditions, has proven anti-slip properties even when wet, and is suitable for use as a working deck. Rough edged materials can be shovelled without damaging the surface of the board and tough materials such as dried cement and plaster can be scrapped off with ease, leaving a clean floor ready for handover.
The 60 days exposure of the board gives extra security when delays happen onsite, whether down to bad weather, materials not turning up or a shortage of labour. It is the only board that we recommend tiling directly onto and it can also be used with underfloor heating systems.
When used as part of the EGGER Advanced Structural Flooring System, the fully sealed surface on both sides of the board will prevent water damage caused by leaking washing machines and burst pipes throughout the life of the board within the build. To achieve optimal results when laying EGGER Protect, seal the joints and board edges with EGGER Joint & Joist Adhesive. Designed to make laying floors simple and quick, the D4 adhesive is five times stronger than mechanical fixings and thanks to the unique foaming action, helps to minimise board movement and squeaks often associated with a fully nailed floor. Each board has a tongue and groove profile that is cut with unique diamond-tipped tooling which creates more consistent joints in the board.
When used as part of the EGGER Advanced Structural Flooring System, EGGER Protect is covered by our EGGER Advanced Lifetime Guarantee. To benefit from the guarantee, simply follow three simple steps: select your flooring board from the EGGER Advanced Structural Flooring range, use EGGER Joint & Joist Adhesive and fit in accordance to the EGGER Fitting Guide.
