R-values
Platinum "R" Floor panels have exceptional thermal performance, enhancing home insulation, leading to lower energy bills, increased comfort, and a reduced environmental footprint.
Sustainability
Platinum "R" Floor panels is a subfloor insulation and plywood flooring building material made from radiata pine; a type of tree commonly found in Australia. These trees grow in plantations carefully monitored and managed to ensure the sustainability of the resource. This is done in a way that minimises negative impact on the environment and maintains ecological balance, making these flooring panels an eco-friendly building material, that are a 100% recyclable at end of use and can be used with confidence by those who are committed to responsible construction practices.
Subfloor Requirements
This product can be installed over steel or timber joists. Their size and spacing are to be determined by the project enginer, however, the recommended maximum joist centres is 800mm and that joists have a minimum thickness of 45mm.
Blocking is required under all load bearing walls.
Wet Area Set Down
Eliminate the need to notch out, set down or use different height joists to create the wet area with Platinum "R" Floor. When installed, all that is required prior to waterproofing is a strip of fibre cement falshing between the edge of the panels and the 19mm wet area flooring. This then gives an automatic step down to the wet area and allows to create a fall to the waste.
Australian Made
Platinum "R" Floor panels are proudly 100% Australian made and have been certified by Australian Made Campaign Limited (AMCL).

Storage and Handling

Face checks are lengthwise separations of wood fibres in the face veneer of the plywood flooring. They result from the normal swelling and shrinking of wood as it gains and loses moisture. It is important to realise that these checks are superficial and confined to the face veneer. They do not alter the structural integrity of the plywood flooring material in any way.
