LION Floor by Finnish Fibreboard
ABOUT THIS PRODUCT...
The cost-effective and readily available alternative for BS 8203 compliant plywood.
The extraordinary growth of luxury vinyl flooring has highlighted the need for careful subfloor preparation for a quality, lasting installation. While many installers head straight for BS 8203 compliant plywood for a reliable LVT and resilient installation, fluctuating supply and prices can cause havoc with profits and successful project completion. Fortunately, there is an alternative to British Standard compliant plywood that brings many advantages. That alternative is LION Floor: an engineered fibreboard that’s cost-effective and readily available.
Company Profile
LION Boards are probably one of the greenest engineered wood panels on the market. We recycle wood fibre by- products from saw mills close to our Heinola Mill, and have full Chain of Custody on our raw materials, resulting in us being able to offer our customers PEFC certified materials.
LION Floor is made in Finland by Finnish Fibreboard, using locally sourced and highly sustainable wood by-products, so it’s already off to a great start compared to the tropical hardwood used in the majority of flooring-grade plywood. This regular and reliable, local supply chain also means that LION Floor is readily available from a growing number of suppliers across the UK.
LION Floor’s engineered board is pre-conditioned, so unlike other oil tempered hardboard it doesn’t need wetting before installation and is ready to receive screeds and feather compounds. Simple to cut with a knife or saw and installed in the same way as plywood but eliminating core gaps and overlaps, it’s a fast and effective way to deliver a first- class resilient floor installation.

Peter Jones, Finnish Fibreboard, said: “BS 8203 compliant plywood is considered the standard way to prepare subfloors before the installation of LVT or sheet vinyl floors, but there is another way – the LION Floor way. We’ve developed the engineered fibreboard as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to flooring-grade plywood and it delivers. In fact, with the new requirements in BS 8203 eliminating the vast majority of plywood commonly available on the UK market, LION Floor is now one of a very small number of fabricated underlays that can be fitted under LVT and other resilient floorcoverings that meets British Standards and CFA guidance.”
Available in 4.8mm thickness – comparable to 6mm plywood – for standard installation, LION Floor comes in various sheet sizes.
