What Are Calcium Sulphate Access Flooring Systems?
Calcium Sulphate Access Flooring sealed panels consist of a recycled Calcium Sulphate core sealed with heavy-duty ABS and a galvanized steel bottom. These panels are environmentally friendly, waterproof, rot-proof, fireproof (Class "A" flame spread rating) and provide excellent rigidity, load rating, durability, and acoustic and static performance. The Calcium Sulphate panel is U.S. wood-core compatible without the susceptibility to humidity, temperature, expanding wood core, and de-lamination of the standard wood-core system.
The Benefits of Installing a Calcium Raised Floor System
Flooring plays a critical role in workplace design and functionality. Whether for a new build or a building renovation, consider the benefits a calcium access floor system has to offer:
- Green materials: These panels are environmentally friendly, "green" building materials that are 100% recyclable and manufactured using sustainable practices.
- Fire insulation: If you have a fire, these panels are fireproof and will provide insulation that slows the flames and allows extra time for your employees to evacuate.
- Load capacity: These tiles have an impressive ultimate load rating of 3400 pounds, offer 371.75 pounds of balanced load support per square foot and can withstand 150-pound impacts.
- Waterproof properties: Calcium raised floor systems are waterproof, making them easy to clean and perfect for safe and reliable installation in high-humidity environments.

Floor Finishes
Pro Access Floors' Calcium Sulphate Access Flooring Systems come in a wide selection of high-pressure laminate (HPL) finishes. We also offer a variety of vinyl finishes by special order.
Our high-pressure laminate finishes are available in a broad range of colors and styles to match your building's architecture and your brand identity. We have options to suit any space, including panels with stone, slate and graphite patterns, and tiles featuring warm wood tones.
Airflow Panels
Calcium Sulphate Access Flooring systems with optional airflow panels are ideal for controlling hot spots and preventing your IT equipment from overheating. These panels are perforated, drawing air traveling through the room down past your equipment and underneath the floor to improve circulation. Depending on how much performance you need, you can choose between standard airflow panels or our high-output model:
- Standard airflow: These panels allow between 18% to 32% more airflow than non-perforated tiles.
- High-output: High-output panels are high-performance solutions with 55% to 66% better air circulation.
Floor Under Structure
Calcium Sulphate Access Flooring uses an under-structure constructed of a heavy-duty zinc-plated galvanized steel. At Pro Access Floors, we install under-structures capable of supporting floors ranging anywhere from 3 inches high up to 72 inches off the ground using two available options:
- Bolted Stringer systems: Bolted Stringer systems offer the greatest load capacity for supporting your heaviest equipment.
- Stringerless locking systems: Our Stringerless Drop and Lock systems make it easy to remove panels for quick access to your subfloor.
