Ease of Installation.
SAPboard is available in 2x8 and 4x8 sheets and custom sizes can also be produced. They are installed in the same manner as a traditional subfloor. This saves time and reduces the schedule duration by as much as 3 weeks on a typical 4-story, 80,000 sq ft multifamily building, and it can save even more on larger projects.
Cost Savings.
In addition to competitive installation costs compared to equivalent alternatives, SAPboard offers savings resulting from schedule improvements, reduced general conditions and less floor prep for finish floor contractors. This contributes to project completion and earlier revenue opportunity for the owner.
Reduce Risk of Mold.
Because SAPboard eliminates the introduction of wet cementitious underlayments into an otherwise dry environment, the risk of mold development during the construction process is substantially reduced or entirely eliminated.
Quality.
SAPboard features a robust design with exceptional strength and stiffness as well as easy machining and adhesion, allowing for a hassle-free installation. Additionally, the exceptional dimensional stability resists warping, twisting and bowing.
Environmentally Friendly.
SAPboard is also outstanding in regard to sustainability. Manufactured with yellow pine from renewable sources and recycled rubber, SAPboard has a near zero carbon footprint. The water-based adhesive system is resistant to moisture and creates a strong, stable product that is free from solvents and other harmful emissions
