2 Karndean LooseLay Longboard is a collection of 12 woods featuring unique designs in a 1.5m long format. Making the most of the 1.5 metre length, each design displays intricate details found in the original woods that inspired the collection. Native Australian species feature heavily in this range with Tasmanian Oak, Blackbutt and Spotted Gum all represented. Oaks from Europe and Heart Pine from the USA complete the offer to present a contemporary palette in a loose lay format. A preferred alternative to carpet tiles and other floating floors, Karndean s innovative LooseLay products give you the intricate design and durability you expect from a Karndean product, but in a unique format that can be installed quickly and easily in nearly any space.

Its planks are 43% longer than standard LooseLay, facilitating even faster installation times and can be laid over most existing hard floors. 1500mm x 250mm PU Protective Layer Our enhanced surface treatment provides added protection and reduced maintenance. Grip Backing The backing creates a strong bond to the subfloor using a combination of weight and friction. Clear PVC Embossed Wear Layer Protects the floor s design from wear and tear. Stability Layers The fibreglass enhanced layer helps the product to lay flat and level, increasing dimensional stability and mechanical strength.

6 Useful information when installing Karndean LooseLay Acclimatisation At least 48 hours prior to installation, Karndean LooseLay must be removed from packaging, unstacked and allowed to acclimatise in the room where the installation is to take place. Room temperature should be kept between 18 C - 29 C (65 F - 85 F). Subfloor Preparation Subfloor preparation must comply with AS / NZS 1884 and Karndean s installation instructions. The subfloor must be dry, smooth, level, clean and dust-free, but need not be porous. Test for dampness and alkalinity as per Appendices A and B of AS / NZS Note: solvents MUST NOT BE USED to clean subfloors prior to installation as they can cause damage to the LooseLay on installation. Routine Maintenance Karndean LooseLay has a protective PU surface, which helps to protect the floor and eliminates the need to strip and seal after installation. Regular cleaning with a ph neutral cleaner such as Karndean Clean will help keep your floor at its best. To refresh the appearance and durability of your floor, strip the floor using the Karndean Remove solution, rinse the floor with water and seal, using the Karndean Refresh sealer. Repair Karndean LooseLay is not only quick and easy to fit, but in a situation where you may need to replace a damaged plank or tile, it s just as easy to replace a piece as it is to fit in the first place. Installation Karndean LooseLay must be installed commercially using a pressure sensitive adhesive such as Karndean Hi-Tack PS. Before starting the installation remove all debris and vacuum the floor to remove all dust. Karndean LooseLay can be installed on any subfloor that is flat, level, smooth and dry (but need not be porous) using one of the following three options: 1) Loose-lay for domestic dwellings only fitted tightly to the wall and each other using a pressure sensitive adhesive around the edge of the room and at thresholds. 2) Grid stick in rooms with walls longer that 4 metres use a pressure sensitive adhesive around the edge of the room/area and at intervals across the floor in a 3M spaced grid with 10cm bands, fitting each tile/plank tightly to the wall and each other. This option can also be used for general commercial traffic. 3) Heavy commercial traffic / high temperature / high spillage areas we recommend installing the tiles/planks with a full coverage of a pressure sensitive adhesive. * For very high traffic areas, high-spillage wet areas, and high temperature areas you must use the full overall spread method.
