HOW WE GOT HERE

Ram Board was born in 1999 out of the back of a pickup truck, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Built on cultivating genuine relationships in the industry, Ram Board continues to lead the industry.

1999:

Ram Board begins as paperboard rolls sold out of the back of a pickup truck by the founder. The surface protection board was originally designed to protect floors on movie sets. From there, Ram Board made its way into the construction industry where it was put to the test under the rigorous demands of contractors. Here it rapidly became contractor’s #1 choice for floor protection.

2013:

Ram Board and Surface Shields team up in 2013. The two trusted brands utilize their unique product lines to provide professionals with a more robust offering and additional customer support.

BETTER BUILT BOARD

BETTER BUILT BOARD

AND HERE'S HOW...

Surface protection may seem one dimensional, but this just ain’t true. We see opportunity to elevate each product and tailor specifically to the need it fills on the jobsite, improving workflow and ease of application. 

The main benefits of our products include these 6 features that stand as the pillars of success for Ram Board products.

HEAVY-DUTY

Ram Board products have been tested time and again by the hands of contractors. The formula for the flagship Ram Board product has not changed. Heavy-Duty quality has always been the foundation of our products and will continue to be the backbone of our brand.
