Strandfloor Weathering Notice

The following Strandfloor products have a limited exposure time to weathering:

Strandfloor recommended exposure time – 8 weeks
StrandfloorH3.1 recommended exposure time – 12 weeks

What action should I take if the flooring platform will be exposed for longer than recommended exposure times?
  • It is possible to cover Strandfloor using breathable covers / tarpaulins, the covers must be kept clearof the Strandfloor to allow air to circulate, creating a “tent” over floor area.
  • Where possible after rain the platform should be swept to prevent ponding.
  • Holes can be drilled to allow water to escape to the sub-floor space. Bottom plates may prevent waterescaping over side of flooring platform.
What should I NOT do to my Strandfloor surface?
  • Use liquid sealers to protect the Strandfloor surface.
  • Use non breathable covers such as polythene as they do not breathe, doing this will prevent airflow andit will sweat / condensate.
  • Cover with sheet material such as MDF, plywood, hardboard etc., as with the non-breathable covers & liquidsealers this will trap moisture in the board.
What do I do if it’s unavoidable that the Strandfloor will be exposed longer than the recommended exposure times?
  • We can arrange for a sample from the flooring platform to be tested for structural properties and confirm that it is fit for purpose. This is a free of charge service.
  • Contact your Laminex Business Partner for details on this process, or if you have any questions.
  • You can also download our Strandfloor Technical Brochure for more info here.
