Dunno about you, but I’d be staying well away from something that Bluescope has called “incompatible”…

Alphafloor is a solid 35mm concrete panel, rated to 25 MPa. It feels like a suspended slab underfoot, boosts acoustic and thermal performance, and has a BAL-FZ rating.

Fibre cement sheets are thin, lightweight and they contain crystalline silica so cutting needs dust controls.

I know what I’m choosing.

“No chipboard.” Two words that tell you everything about JPF Homes.

They choose materials and methods that stand the test of time, because a home should be an asset for generations, not a quick fix.

Even the big bad wolf knows a superior product when he see’s one.

Alphafloor panels are heavier than particle board, and that’s the point. They give you a solid concrete floor.

But weight means respect on site. Two people to lift.

• Carry on edge, not flat.
• Support the centre when tilting or laying down.
• Caulk the tongue and groove, engage and then caulk butt joints with adhesive.
• Screw 100 mm in from each long edge wherever it hits a joist.
• Cut with PCD or masonry blades and wear a P1 or P2 mask.

Most teams can install within a day. If you want to know more, reach out to your local supplier or via our website.

That’s the Alphafloor difference from a home owner 💪🏼

Even my girls know Alphafloor is the best pick in light weight flooring.
