Description A Blue polyethylene based self adhesive timber floor reinforcing sheet material, manufactured using 50% recycled plastic ingredients. Approved under T915 by the Building Element Assessment Laboratory of New Zealand – Building Code Compliant. There are no equivalent British Standards for this category of products.

Uses To facilitate the secure bonding of ceramic and porcelain tiles, mosaics and natural stones to timber floors and problematical substrates* See Scope and Limitations. Plastic Ply is a strong durable sheet material which effectively counteracts deflective forces in a timber floor. In tests conducted under the BEAL Appraisal it was demonstrated that the Plastic Ply could withstand deflective forces far in excess of the L/360 criteria as recommended by the Tile council of America tileusa.com.

Application Method The timber floor should be dimensionally stable, sound and free from grease, waxes, dust and any contamination which may prevent adhesion. Prime timber using Nicobond Universal Bonding Agent & Sealer diluted 4 parts by volume water to 1 part UBAS. Allow to dry. Remove release paper from the underside of the sheet and lay the self adhesive backing directly on to the timber floor. Smooth out so that the sheet is completely flat. If the Plastic Ply is being affixed on an external balcony or terrace then the Plastic Ply can also be screwed down through the screw holes provided. The Plastic Ply is very easy to cut using a Stanley/Utility Knife or strong scissors. The Plastic ply shall be laid brick/stretcher bond pattern, this ensures maximum strengthening properties of the Plastic Ply. Using the straight edge of a notched trowel cover the Plastic Ply with a layer of Nicobond Rapidflex Adhesive (C2 S1 category adhesive) ensuring the voids in the sheet are completely filled. A 3mm layer of adhesive is then applied to the Plastic Ply surface in which to bed the tiles. In a wet room environment the Nicobond Wet Room Tanking Sheet would be laid onto the wet layer of adhesive covering the Plastic Ply and tiles then installed on the tanking Sheet. Once the floor tiles have set in accordance with the recommended timescales the tile joints may be grouted using Nicobond Rapidlflex Grout or Nicobond Flexible Grout (CG2 category grout).
