Construction and Materials
Ram Board offers robust temporary floor protection solutions designed to safeguard finished surfaces during construction, renovation, and high-traffic events. Their primary product line focuses on durable, reusable mats engineered to withstand the rigors of job sites and demanding environments.
Construction and Materials
The construction of Ram Board products emphasizes strength, impact resistance, and a non-slip surface. Key materials and construction features include:
- Engineered Fiberboard: The core of Ram Board products is typically made from a proprietary blend of recycled and virgin fibers. This engineered fiberboard is designed for high crush strength and excellent impact absorption.
- Moisture Resistance: Certain Ram Board products incorporate moisture-resistant treatments or coatings to protect subfloors and finished floors from spills, wet boots, and construction-related moisture. This helps prevent water damage, staining, and warping.
- Non-Slip Surface: The surface of Ram Board is engineered to provide traction, reducing the risk of slips and falls. This is crucial for safety on active job sites.
- Durability and Reusability: The materials and construction methods ensure that Ram Board products are durable enough for multiple uses. This makes them an economical and environmentally conscious choice for temporary protection.
- Flexibility and Adaptability: While rigid enough to provide substantial protection, the materials often allow for some flexibility, enabling them to conform to minor irregularities in subfloors or be cut to size for specific applications.
- Chemical Resistance: Ram Board is generally resistant to common job site chemicals and paints, preventing stains and damage to the protected surface.

Ram Board offers several product variations tailored to different needs:
- Ram Board (Standard): This is the flagship product, offering a balance of protection, durability, and affordability. It's suitable for a wide range of applications from residential renovations to commercial construction.
