Tile backer board with an extruded polystyrene (XPS) core and reinforced cementitious coating. This is a different product from plain XPS insulation board.
- Board size: 1200 × 600 mm.
- Quantity supplied: one board for each unit ordered.
- Nominal area: 0.72 m² per board before cuts and waste.
- Select the required thickness before ordering. The 12.5 mm option is equivalent in thickness to the 12 mm version.
For planning, divide the area to cover by 0.72 and round up, then allow separately for cuts and waste.
Check the substrate, fixings, adhesive and tile-system requirements before installation. Wet-area installations require the specified joint, fixing and penetration treatment as part of the complete installation system.
If you need an uncoated foam board, see our plain XPS insulation boards.
