SULFROCK SOLUTIONS

MgS BOARD SUBFLOOR

Non-Combustible • High Flexural Strength • High Modulus of Elasticity

Our non-combustible MgS subfloor boards provide a high-performance, single-layer alternative to fibre cement boards, plywood, OSB, and gypcrete underlayments. Designed for strength and stability, these boards can be fixed directly to timber or steel joists using corrosion-resistant screws or standard framing nails.

BENEFITS OF MgS SUBFLOOR BOARDS

Our MgS subfloor boards are engineered to deliver a strong, stable, and moisture-resistant base for a wide range of flooring systems. Whether installing hardwood, tile, vinyl, carpet, or laminate, these boards provide long-lasting structural performance alongside superior resistance to moisture, mould, and fire.

NON-COMBUSTIBLE

A sustainable, non-flammable alternative for both residential and commercial projects. MgS boards resist fire for up to 2–3 hours, remaining stable at 800 °C and non-igniting until 1200 °C.

WATER-RESISTANT

Sulfrock boards retain structural integrity when exposed to moisture, preventing warping, swelling, and delamination.

NON-TOXIC

Free from fly ash, formaldehyde, crystalline silica, and other toxins – providing a safer, cleaner construction environment.

TERMITE-PROOF

Naturally resistant to moisture, fire, mould, and pests; ensuring lasting protection against warping, swelling, or decay.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

Manufactured from natural compounds, our boards are recyclable and landfill-safe, classified as ‘nutritional waste’. Tested through 36 months of freeze / thaw cycles, they perform reliably all year round.

FUNGUS-RESISTANT

Antimicrobial properties protect against mould, mildew, and rot. Chloride-free formulation prevents corrosion and material expansion.

WHY CHOOSE OUR MgS SUBFLOOR SYSTEM?

  • Residential Flooring: Provides a stable, non-combustible base for timber, laminate, or tile flooring.

  • Commercial Buildings: Offers durability and moisture resistance for high-traffic environments such as hotels, offices, and retail spaces.

  • Industrial Facilities: Ensures fire-safe, moisture-resistant performance for warehouses and manufacturing areas.

  • Bathrooms & Kitchens: Ideal for wet areas, protecting against water ingress and mould growth.

CUSTOM SOLUTIONS

Every project has unique demands — which is why we offer bespoke MgO subfloor options tailored to your specifications:

  • Custom sizes, thicknesses, densities, flexural strengths, and MOE values.

  • Specialised surface treatments for improved moisture resistance.

  • Engineered load-bearing capacities for heavy-duty or industrial applications.
