TILE BACKER THermal BOARDS - REINFORCED CEMENT COATED - waterproof - ideally for wetrooms
Reinforced 1200mm x 600mm x 6, 10, 20, or 30mm Waterproof Wall & Floor Insulation Boards.
Cement Coated & Reinforced, Waterproof Tile Backer insulation boards are designed to cover internal and external walls and floors.
Our boards are constructed with a highly compressed super-insulated core, then covered on both sides with a fibreglass reinforced polymer modified cement coating which is similar to Marmox/Wedi type boards.
Provides a lightweight but very strong advanced insulation which allows underfloor heating, ceramic, porcelain and stone tiles, plaster or render to be fitted directly to the surface.
The boards are often used as a direct replacement for plasterboard due to their superior sound and insulation properties especially in bathrooms to create a fully tanked waterproof wet room.
Underfloor Heating and Fixings for use with Tile Backer Boards.
