INEX>FLOOR is a high strength lightweight flooring substrate with tongue and groove (T&G) edges. It can be used for external or internal applications; as a substrate for most finishes such as tiles, vinyl, carpet or timber.

INEX>FLOOR can be used in conjunction with floor systems to achieve up to BAL-FZ bushfire compliance.

INEX>FLOOR is simplicity itself. A single affordable product for multiple flooring applications.
