Precision Starts from the Ground Up
For parquetry, the quality of the subfloor is everything. Even small dips, uneven joins or surface variations can affect alignment, resulting in uneven spacing or adhesive failure. A quality underlay eliminates these issues, providing a smooth, stable and secure base for installation.
A well-prepared subfloor ensures:
- A smooth, predictable surface that covers imperfections and keeps flooring flat.
- Structural strength for secure adhesive bonding and fastener holding.
- Long-term durability that minimises movement, squeaks and cracking.
STRUCTApanel® Smooth 12mm is engineered to meet these requirements, ensuring installers can begin every parquetry project with a stable, well-balanced foundation.
Why STRUCTApanel® is the Smarter Choice
Unlike traditional underlays, STRUCTApanel® Smooth 12mm delivers consistent thickness, density and stability across every sheet. Manufactured in Australia from high-density particleboard, it provides the strength and uniformity needed for detailed flooring installations.
Project Spotlight: Hitchcock Street, Barwon Heads
A recent high-end project in Barwon Heads, Victoria, demonstrated how STRUCTApanel® Smooth 12mm is helping flooring professionals achieve flawless results. Belmont Timbers supplied the panels for a 20mm solid blackbutt herringbone parquetry floor installed by J Concepts.
Installer Jay initially considered other materials but selected STRUCTApanel® for its flatness and reliability. “Other materials can sometimes bow or vary slightly, STRUCTApanel® provided an even, stable surface, making adhesive application more efficient. It saved us time and effort,” he explained.
The result was a perfectly laid parquetry floor that met both aesthetic and performance expectations. This finish was smooth, stable and built to last.
