Installing a prefinished bamboo parquet does not require any special products; you can position it by using all of the products which are commonly used alongside prefinished parquets. However, wooden flooring is a “small system” consisting of the core which has been chose, the quality of the laying being used (on a suitably controlled substrate) and regular treatment.
Bamboo flooring deserves to be laid out widely using products of a certain quality: laying using appropriate materials ensures that the bamboo parquet is able to conduct itself in the correct mechanical manner. Please pay attention to Hercules two-component glue from Italian Chimiver.
But when is it necessary to install a floor glued rather than floating it? The glue is used when the parquet planks are tongue-and-groove (if they are click-fit, they must be installed with a soundproofing mat); a parquet can be glued when the substrate is completely dry and there is no suspicion of rising humidity; or when you want a very firm – tile-like – and very silent walk.
Should it be necessary, or if the installation site comprises of special features, or if you are required to carry out work in excess of routine standards, then Pavibamboo will offer its customers a complete range of products for laying a hardwood floor: from two-component to self-levelling adhesives to primers; please contact Pavibamboo directly with regards to these products.
Nowadays, two-component adhesive is the most widely used glue for laying wooden flooring.
Pavibamboo has selected Hercules adhesive which is produced by Chimiver, one of the most important manufacturers in its field; unlike most existing two-component adhesives, Hercules is an odourless, two-component epoxy-PU adhesive hypoallergenic, which is fire-retardant, free of solvents, water and isocyanic resins. Hercules is epoxy resins based with a MV > 700, and does not come with any hazard labels.
It is a product for professional usage. Both elastic and tough, it is suitable for bonding wooden flooring of any size and core directly onto cement substrates and any pre-existing ceramic and marble floors etc., even if these are pre-finished. It is also recommended for laying on radiant screed. Excellent tensile strength, workability and yield.
Hercules glue offers exceptional resistance to temperature changes and humidity. Thanks to its advanced composition, it allows rapid adhesion and high elasticity, minimizing the risk of detachment or cracking over time. Perfect for applications in both domestic and commercial environments, the two-component glue ensures a secure and uniform fixation on various surfaces, including the most problematic substrates.
