Substrate:
  • The substrate must be pressure- and tension-resistant, permanently dry, free of cracks and dust, even and free of layers that reduce adhesion.
  • Adhesion-reducing layers, old material residues must be removed by suitable mechanical measures in accordance with the specifications of DIN 18365.
  • Minor unevenness or cracks up to 0.5 mm are bridged by laying.
  • For levelling the substrate use recommended Eurocol levelling compounds/primers.

The installation materials to be used must be suitable for the substrate and the intended use.



User manual:

Allow the Forbo Quickfit MDF boards in their packaging to temper in a suitable room climate for 24 hours before use.

  • Cut Forbo Foam PE underlay to size and lay with the smooth side down. Alternatively, lay 0.2 mm PE foil overlapping.
  • Tape the seams with commercially available aluminium tape.
  • Score the back of the Forbo Quickfit MDF boards at the cut edge with a trapezoidal blade and then break through in the opposite direction.
  • For the first row, cut the 3 mm thick boards in half lengthwise and lay them against the shorter wall of the room with 1 cm distance to the wall. The adhesive side faces upwards.
  • In the second row, lay each of the 3 mm MDF boards in half offset in full width with the adhesive side facing upwards.
  • Now, starting at the back wall, lay a full 4 mm MDF board with head joint offset and adhesive side down on the already laid MDF boards.
  • Fill up the row and finish row by row in the same sequence. Important: As long as no pressure is applied to the boards, their position can be corrected.
  • Roll the finished surface with an articulated roller (70 kg) and sand the joints of the boards with fine sandpaper.
  • The floor covering can be bonded immediately with suitable and recommended Eurocol adhesives.

Processing conditions: 

At least 15 °C floor temperature,
at least 18°C material and room temperature,
