SB Panel Premier 48 is a type of acoustic floorboard that is designed to increase floor height in both refurbishment and new build projects. It features a combination of a resilient layer called SB slab30™ on the underside and a high density upper layer, which provides excellent acoustic qualities. The resilient layer also helps to compensate for minor unevenness in the floor surface.

This high density P5 moisture resistant floorboard is perfect for increasing floor height while upgrading floors. It is designed to provide impact sound insulation between separating floors. The floorboard consists of 18mm High Density P5 Moisture Resistant TG4 chipboard panels and a 30mm acoustic resilient layer called SB slab30™, which is factory bonded to the underside of the panels.

• Residential flooring: These floorboards are ideal for use in residential buildings, such as houses and apartments. They can withstand heavy foot traffic and are resistant to moisture, making them suitable for areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and basements.
• Commercial flooring: The high density and moisture resistance of these floorboards make them suitable for commercial spaces, including offices, retail stores, and restaurants. They can handle the demands of a busy environment and are easy to clean and maintain.
• Industrial flooring: SB Panel Premier 48 floorboards are also used in industrial settings, such as warehouses and factories. Their high density and moisture resistance make them suitable for areas where there may be exposure to water or other liquids.
• Exterior decking: These floorboards can be used for outdoor decking applications, such as patios, balconies, and poolside areas. Their moisture resistance ensures that they can withstand exposure to rain and other weather conditions.
• Furniture manufacturing: The high density and durability of these floorboards make them suitable for manufacturing furniture, such as cabinets, shelves, and tables. They can be used as a base material for constructing sturdy and long-lasting furniture pieces.

Installation

To install the SB Panel Premier 48, follow these steps:

1. Lay the SB Panel 48 Floating Flooring in a conventional broken bond pattern.
2. Use SB-Bond Panel Adhesive to glue all teegee joints.
3. Leave a 10-15mm expansion gap around all perimeters and install SB-Seal 20 Perimeter Seal to ensure that the floor floats freely from the walls and maintains acoustic isolation.
4. If there are door thresholds, access hatches, or areas without a teegee joint, you can use SB-Grommet Fixing Isolators sparingly to prevent any "lipping" issues. Do not use any other fixings when installing the floating floor, as they can negatively affect its performance. Skirting should be installed with a minimum clearance of two or three millimeters from the floor surface (PCT only).
