Floor Bonded

Bonded Flooring

Bonded flooring is fixed to the cross-bearers using adhesives rather than mechanical fasteners. This creates a continuous and rigid interface between the floor and chassis structure.

The bonded connection provides improved structural integrity, allowing the overall steelwork requirement to be reduced without compromising strength. This approach is often used where payload optimisation is a priority, such as in lightweight trailers and rigid bodywork.

Bonded flooring is also particularly well suited to transporting scuff-sensitive loads, including paper reels. As the floor is bonded from beneath, there are no protruding fixings that could damage or indent the product surface during loading and transit.

FAQs

What are the advantages of bonded flooring?

It improves structural performance by creating a continuous connection with the cross-bearers, helping reduce steelwork weight and protecting sensitive loads by removing exposed fixings.

Which loads benefit most from bonded flooring?

Bonded flooring is commonly used for scuff-sensitive loads such as paper reels, packaging products and other materials that require smooth, obstruction-free load contact surfaces.
