Temporary Floor Protection Product Goes From Strength to Strength


Less than a year after being introduced to the UK by temporary floor protection products retailer, Trio Plus, the American-made Ram Board is rapidly becoming a must have product for some of the country’s most prestigious venues.

Developed to meet the punishing demands of Hollywood film production and super-sized US construction sites, the hard floor protector is now one of the strongest, most durable and most reliable solutions for five star hotels, country houses and buildings of note with hard floors and valuable floors to protect.

Able to withstand the weight of a forklift truck, Ram Board is designed to be uniquely vapour permeable – meaning it can be laid atop floors that have themselves just been laid with no curing time needed. This makes it invaluable on building sites but, its strength of character means it is a safe choice when valuable floors need to be protected from heavy foot traffic, builder’s mess, large scale events and heavy equipment.

A number of five star properties have used Ram Board hard and valuable floor protector since it was introduced by Trio Plus in September. They include the 2012 Pasadena House of Design, which used Ram Board to cover its vintage floors as a team of 21 interior designers and seven landscaped gardeners exhibited their work at the annual showcase event.

The ultra luxurious Hale Country Club and Spa also opted to roll out Ram Board to safeguard new floors at the Cheshire property as final works were carried out ahead of the Club’s grand opening this spring.

Other locations to use Ram Board include the 13th century Grade One listed building Icomb Place, the magnificent five-star Royal Garden Hotel situated in Kensington, the five-star Chancery Court Hotel in High Holborn, Carlton Tower Place on London’s Sloane Street and the new Premier Inn at Dartford.

Made entirely from recycled materials, Ram Board can be laid quickly and easily from rolls and will leave no residue when taken up. Water resistant thanks to its unique splash guard technology, it was named a 2011 Top Product in the Tomorrow’s Flooring Awards.

Trio Plus’ Temporary Floor Protection Products Now On Set For Filming of Channel 4 Drama-edy ‘My Fat Mad Teenage Diary’


A new channel four drama has kicked off its production schedule by ordering two temporary floor protection products from silver screen favourite, Trio Plus. The Surrey firm has supplied hard floor, carpet and valuable floor protection products to numerous TV production companies this year already and has now added another string to its bow with the order from producers of ‘My Fat Mad Teenage Diary’.
An adaption of Rae Earl's real-life diary of the same name, ‘My Fat Mad Teenage Diary’ is a coming of age series set in Lincolnshire. It is part of a series of new commissions by Channel 4 for the 2012-13 autumn and winter schedule and is now shooting on location. Joining the actors on set is Trio Plus’ standard hard floor protection fleece and Ram Board, the award winning temporary floor protector from the USA.
With a felt topside and polythene backing, the Trio Plus temporary hard floor protection fleece is a fast way to protect hard floors from spills and dirt. Supplied in rolls, it can be applied in moments and once laid, will stay flat and in place for up to 45 days. Non-slip, it is suitable for use in busy public spaces as well as private residences. The felt top absorbs spillages like a sponge while the polythene backing prevents fluids penetrating and ruining the hard floor beneath. With an eco-friendly adhesive, the fleece won’t leave a residue when removed but is durable and long-lasting while is use.
Imported from the USA, Ram Board is also a tough hard floor protection product suitable for use in busy spaces. Thanks to its unique spill guard technology, Ram Board will protect floors from water, paint, mud and more.
Heavy duty and suitable for use in large scale construction projects, the contractor-strength Ram Board is impenetrable, vapour permeable and can be used as soon as the floor has been laid. It is fast becoming a favourite of production companies tasked with shooting TV series and films on location as it’s tough outer layer makes it suitable for covering valuable and old floors, protecting them from damage caused by heavy foot traffic and filming equipment.

Trio Plus Temporary Floor Protection Products Picked By Production Companies Yet Again


Trio Plus, a leading supplier of temporary floor protection products, has confirmed its silver screen credentials with a slew of new orders from TV production companies. It has supplied a range of floor protection products to a host of primetime shows currently filming on location around the country.

Waterloo Road, an award-winning British television drama series, set in and around Waterloo Road, a fictional school for students, has purchased three different products from Trio Plus for the protection of locations during their shoots.

The first is Ram Board, a unique heavy duty temporary hard floor protection product manufactured in the USA and available in the UK exclusively from Trio Plus. Having undergone tests in the toughest of environments, Ram Board has proven to offer an impenetrable defence, making it the solution of choice for new, old and valuable floors. Supplied in rolls, Ram Board is quick and easy to apply and remains flat and true when inplace.  Unlike many hard floor protection products, Ram Board is vapour permeable, which means it can be used to protect floors that have just been laid.

The second product ordered by the Waterloo Road film crew is Premium Fleece. This hard floor protector is reliable, non-slip, durable and hard wearing. It won’t disintegrate in the face of moisture or heavy foot traffic making it easy to sweep clean and safe to use in public areas. The fleece easily absorbs spillages thanks to its polythene backing which locks fluids to prevent moisture seeping through to the floor beneath.

The final product purchased for Waterloo Road is Trio Plus’ Tacky Mats. This floor protection product works by capturing dust and dirt particles from foot traffic passing over its adhesive surface. The dirt from the soles of shoes sticks to the surface of the mat keeping the area beyond clean and dirt free. After it has been walked over a number of times, the exposed mat will become non-sticky. Tac mats consist of 30 layers so once full, the non-sticky layer can be easily peeled off using the numbered tab, revealing a fresh new adhesive surface underneath to be used.

The BBC afternoon drama, Doctors which is based on the lives of staff and patients, has also purchased floor protection from Trio Plus. The team, opted for Correx to protect large areas of hard floors quickly and efficiently. Having replaced traditional materials like plywood and hardboard, Correx is now the industry standard and is favoured for its lightweight structure. Correx is an efficient floor protection solution which is highly versatile and can be used either in sheet form for surface protection or converted into cases, boxes, sleeves and trays.
