Key Features:

  1. Castellated Design:
    • The castellated structure provides excellent load distribution and structural strength.
    • Ideal for applications requiring robust support while minimizing weight.
  2. Egg Crate Configuration:
    • The egg crate pattern offers enhanced rigidity and stability.
    • Provides a framework for easy routing of pipes and cables, making it suitable for underfloor heating systems.
  3. Screed Holes:
    • Pre-drilled screed holes facilitate the efficient pouring and leveling of screed.
    • Ensures optimal adhesion between the screed and the subfloor, enhancing the overall stability of the floor system.
  4. Self-Adhesive Backing:
    • The self-adhesive backing allows for quick and secure installation.
    • Eliminates the need for additional adhesive materials, reducing installation time and cost.
    • Provides a strong bond to various subfloor materials, including concrete and plywood.

  5. Material:
    • Typically made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP) for durability and long-term performance.
    • Resistant to moisture, chemicals, and temperature variations.

Applications:

  1. Underfloor Heating Systems:
    • The castellated and egg crate design allows for easy installation of heating pipes.
    • Ensures even distribution of heat across the floor surface.

Installation Guidelines:

  1. Preparation:
    • Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and free from debris.
    • Measure and cut the panels to fit the area, allowing for expansion gaps where necessary.
  2. Placement:
    • Lay the panels in the desired configuration, aligning the screed holes as required.
    • Press the panels firmly onto the subfloor to activate the self-adhesive backing.
  3. Securing:
    • If additional securing is required, use screws or nails in the designated screed holes.
    • Ensure the panels are level and securely bonded to the subfloor.
  4. Finishing:
    • Once the panels are in place, proceed with the installation of underfloor heating pipes.
    • Pour and level the screed over the panels, ensuring it fills the screed holes for a solid bond.

By combining structural strength, ease of installation, and compatibility with underfloor heating systems, castellated egg crate floor panels with screed holes and self-adhesive backing offer a versatile solution for modern flooring needs.
