Profoil™ is also available for: Floating Floors, Timber Suspended Floors and Battened Floors.

Floor on floor section drawing for Profoil.

Profoil™ Floor on Floor Panels are manufactured to meet the client’s individual project requirements and hence provide a totally flexible, bespoke solution that enables specific design and performance criteria to be achieved.

Profoil™ Floor on Floor Panels can be laid directly on an existing floor, avoiding the need to lift the current tongued & grooved chipboard or timber floor finish in order to gain access to the joists beneath (as would be necessary when fitting a Profoil™ Timber Suspended Floor system in an existing floor). However, the final floor level should be carefully considered when using this system.

The following table provides some necessary information to assist in the decision making process:
