Triboard® TGV: A Stronger, Smarter Alternative for Wall and Ceiling Linings

Published: 28 May 2025

For architects, builders and suppliers seeking a durable, high-performance lining product for interior applications, Triboard® TGV (Tongue & Groove) offers a reliable, locally made solution. Manufactured by Juken New Zealand Ltd (JNL), this engineered wood panel blends the strength of strand board with the smooth finish of MDF outer layers, creating a versatile board ideal for residential and commercial use.

Designed for wall and ceiling linings, Triboard TGV comes ready to paint with a 5+ paint finish. The tongue and groove profile allows for easy installation with a seamless, continuous look ideal for larger areas where sheet joins can detract from aesthetics.

Key to Triboard’s appeal is its structural integrity and impact resistance, making it a popular choice in high-use spaces such as garages, hallways, utility rooms and sleepouts. It also performs well in rural and coastal homes thanks to its dimensional stability and resistance to warping or movement under variable humidity. Manufactured in New Zealand from plantation-grown radiata pine, Triboard is also a sustainable choice – engineered to maximise resource use and minimise waste.
It’s available in 2 sheet sizes. 3740 x 400 x 15mm and 1200 x 400 x15mm.

Key Benefits:

  • Durable and impact resistant
  • Easy to install tongue and groove profile
  • Suitable for walls and ceilings
  • Made in New Zealand using sustainable pine
