EGGER leads the way in structural flooring solutions
T
he EGGER Advanced Structural
Flooring System is a key
innovation for EGGER UK, one
of Europe’s leading wood-based panel
manufacturers. The system is specifically
designed to help house builders save
time, money and manpower on their
projects. It’s based on a simple six-step
installation process and suitable for both
masonry and timber frame builds.
The system combines three key
components; EGGER tongue and
groove structural flooring boards,
EGGER Joint and Joist D4 Adhesive
and a proven easy to use fitting
method. It is based on the company’s
portfolio of structural P5 grade
flooring boards with enhanced
moisture resistant properties, which
include EGGER P5, EGGER Peel
Clean Xtra and EGGER Protect.
The boards are manufactured using
sustainable raw materials on one of the
most sophisticated production lines in
Europe. They each have a tongue and
groove profile created using diamondtipped tooling for stronger and tighter
fitting joints.
When used together they have the
potential to offer considerable benefits
to house builders, including faster
installations with fewer stoppages and
floors can be laid in light rain conditions.
To give house builders added peace
of mind, the entire EGGER Advanced
Structural Flooring System is backed by
the company’s lifetime guarantee. A key
feature is EGGER Protect, an innovative
type of floor board which can be left
exposed to the elements for up to 42 days
during the build process which helps
to minimise weather related delays and
enable faster installations.
EGGER Protect is manufactured from an
EGGER P5 flooring grade particleboard
with a unique, weather resistant surface
layer applied to the top and underside
of the board. Its hard-wearing anti-slip
surface provides additional foot holding
in wet and dry conditions, which not only
contributes to site safety, it also creates
an essential safe working platform for
use in construction.
When glued with EGGER Joint &
Joist D4 Adhesive it provides a fully
sealed working deck that requires no
jo int sealing tape and protects against
moisture, impact and the wear and tear of
heavy site traffic.

An added benefit is its concrete-effect
finish meaning that no painting is
required once work has been completed.
Dan Soulsby, EGGER Category
Manager for Building Products, explains:
“EGGER is proud to be an industryleading provider of commercial and
domestic structural flooring applications.
“We strive to give our customers
innovative solutions, exceptional
product quality, value for money and
complete peace of mind on every

flooring chipboards provide the same
outstanding protection and structural
properties or offer installers so many
laying and fixing benefits.
“Each product within the EGGER
Advanced Structural Flooring System
has been manufactured to the highest
standard and the lifetime guarantee
reinforces our commitment to quality and
belief in the products and system.
“Regardless of the scale of the project,
whether it’s a large-scale housing
development, self- build, renovation,
property conversion or home extension,
it is our aim to be the indisputable first
choice for anyone who wants peace of
mind in their work when installing a
structural chipboard floor.”
