Goodbye to squeaky floors with
West Fraser’s CaberFloor

WEST FRASER’S CaberFloor range is used extensively by leading housebuilders and specifiers nationwide as it delivers high-quality flooring finishes, while preventing issues such as noise or imbalance, to save costs down the line.

CaberFloor P5 is the UK’s most specified moisture-resistant P5 flooring. The super strong particle­board is perfect for domestic and most other floors, eliminating the need for intermediate noggins. The boards are moisture-resistant, stable, durable, easy to install, and feature a tongue and groove or square-edge profile, ensuring an excellent surface for subsequent floor laying.

Some projects demand more advanced solutions — especially if the weather is a consideration if the roof will not be on. Caber­Shield Eco excels in such scenarios, allowing construction to proceed in all weather conditions. Cabe­r­Shield Eco has a tough, permanent, solvent-free, UV waterproof coating to the surface layer and is BBA approved for 60 days exposure; and provides a non-slip, safe platform that can endure high site traffic.

Another option is CaberDek, which is BBA approved for 60 days exposure when paired with CaberFix. This P5 grade flooring offers protection against weather and construction debris, leaving behind a clean, finished floor after removal. Its film is impact, puncture and tear-resistant, making it suitable for high traffic areas.
