What is Chipboard Flooring 22mm?

22mm chipboard flooring refers to flooring-grade chipboard panels that often have tongue & groove edges for stronger joints.

They are P5 structural grade, FSC®-certified, moisture-resistant chipboard flooring 22mm thick and come in standard sizes (e.g. 2400mm x 600mm) for use as subfloors over joists. The extra thickness means more rigid boards, better resistance to deflection, and ideal conditions for heavier floor loads.

What is P5 chipboard flooring 22mm used for?

These are the main applications for P5 chipboard flooring 22mm thick:

• Domestic floors in hallways, living rooms, bedrooms, and dining rooms, where thick boards mean less movement and no squeaks.
• Kitchens and bathrooms where moisture fluctuates benefit from P5 chipboard flooring 22mm thick with proper sealing to prevent water from making it into the board, which is not waterproof in itself.
• Lofts, storage areas, and intermediate floors need sturdier boards to handle the foot traffic.
• Some options are weather resistant for up to 60 days, which is ideal for ongoing construction that is exposed to the elements.
• Walls and flooring with fire safety requirements benefit from the Euroclass B rating on some of our options to comply with building regulations.

Benefits of using our 22mm Chipboard

Our 22mm P5 chipboard flooring with weather or fire resistance as needed brings several key benefits:

• Greater strength and structural integrity – Extra thickness means less deflection when loaded, stability over joists, and reduced movements or squeaks.
• Improved moisture resistance – The P5 rating ensures fluctuating moisture levels won’t make your boards degrade, unlike non-structural chipboard.
• Weather resilience during construction – These options allow up to 60 days of exposure, giving you flexibility in the building stages.
• Fire performance as needed – Our fire-retardant boards come with a Euroclass B rating, which is crucial where safety regulations mandate them.
• Versatile for floor coverings – The smooth sanded face means laying down a cover of tiles, carpeting, laminate, or vinyl is easy. The T&G joints create tight seams for cleaner finishes.
• Efficient and cost-effective – With standard sizing, you make fewer cuts and have less waste.
• Environmentally conscious – Many of our boards are FSC® certified, made to EN312 standards, and often made from recycled wood chips. Some product lines are specifically built around the eco-friendliness theme, such as Cabershield.
