Rigid Fiberboard Temporary Protection Panels

The Traditional Standard: Rigid Fiberboard Protection Panels for High-Impact Temporary Flooring

When demanding absolute rigidity and firm surface protection, nothing surpasses the traditional performance of Rigid Fiberboard Temporary Protection Panels. Our panels are made from compressed wood fibers, offering a dense, durable solution that is significantly stiffer than corrugated plastic for certain applications. These panels are the professional's choice for protecting luxury flooring, marble, granite, and delicate tile work where heavy static loads or rolling equipment (like pallet jacks or scissor lifts) are expected. The strength of the compressed wood matrix provides a uniform distribution of pressure, preventing point-load damage that can crack or chip stone and ceramic surfaces. While not inherently waterproof, our panels feature a specialty treated surface on one side to resist minor spills and moisture ingress. The natural cushioning property of the fiberboard also aids in absorbing tool impact and reduces the echoing of construction noise. Designed to be laid end-to-end and taped at the seams, the panels create a smooth, continuous, and robust temporary floor. For projects that prioritize maximum stiffness, dent resistance, and load-bearing capacity, our fiberboard panels remain the industry standard.

Key Features and Advantages

Maximum Static Load Capacity: High density and rigidity prevent point-load damage from heavy equipment and static loads.

Excellent Dent Resistance: Provides a hard, non-yielding barrier suitable for protecting stone and marble.

Impact and Noise Damping: Absorbs heavy impact from dropped tools and muffles construction sounds.

Easy to Install: Panels lay flat and can be secured quickly with edge tape.

Recyclable Material: Made from recycled or responsibly sourced wood fibers, offering an eco-friendly option.

Treated Surface: One side is treated to resist minor liquid spills and moisture absorption.

Technical Parameters

FAQ Section

Q: Which side of the fiberboard should face up?

A: The smooth, treated side should generally face up to benefit from its spill resistance. The rough, natural side faces down to provide a slight grip against the underlying floor.

Q: Is this product fully waterproof?

A: No, it is moisture-resistant but not fully waterproof like plastic. Excessive water should be cleaned up immediately, and the material should not be submerged or left in standing water.

Q: Can I drive a scissor lift over these panels?

A: Yes, the 1/4 inch thickness is frequently used in conjunction with underlying cushioning material to handle heavy static and rolling loads like scissor lifts, provided the surface underneath is stable and the load capacity is confirmed.
