Norbord 18mm P5 Moisture Resistant T&G Chipboard Flooring 2400 x 600mm is a high-density, structural-grade floor panel engineered for both domestic and light commercial applications. Manufactured by Norbord (CaberFloor, now part of West Fraser) and certified to BS EN 312 P5 and EN 13986, it combines reliable moisture resistance with fast, secure installation — making it the go-to subfloor board for UK tradespeople and self-builders alike.
Key Features and Specifications

Applications
- Suspended timber floor subfloor in new-build houses and extensions
- First-fix flooring in loft conversions — narrow 600mm width aids handling in tight spaces
- Renovation and refurbishment projects replacing worn floorboards
- Kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms where occasional moisture exposure is expected
- Floating floor installation over concrete, screed, or thermal/acoustic insulation slabs
- Timber-frame and modular construction projects
Why Choose This Product
The Norbord CaberFloor P5 is one of the UK’s most widely specified moisture-resistant chipboard flooring panels, trusted for its consistent board quality, structural performance, and ease of installation. The TG4 profile on all four edges eliminates the need for intermediate noggins, speeds up laying, and — when used with a suitable D4 adhesive — produces a silent, squeak-free floor. FSC-certified sourcing and compliance with European low-emission standards make it a responsible choice for both trade and domestic projects.
