CemBacker, developed by CEMBLOC, is a highly versatile construction board that serves a multitude of purposes, including tile backing, plywood replacement, acoustic board and more. It is specifically engineered to deliver exceptional fireproof and waterproof protection for floors (6mm). The board has been rigorously tested by leading tile adhesive companies and the world's largest manufacturer of ceramic and porcelain tiles, ensuring the highest quality standards. With an impressive strength of 105kg/m², it can support the heaviest tiles available on the market.
CemBacker surpasses traditional methods such as plasterboard and plywood, which tend to deteriorate and rot over time in wetrooms. It offers superior moisture and fire resistance, as well as remarkable dimensional stability. Unlike its counterparts, it remains unaffected by water, making it an ideal non-combustible, A1 fire rated solution that is UV stable and fully weatherproof. It can withstand extreme temperature conditions.
The CemBacker tile backer board is intelligently designed, employing a 6mm thickness for floors and a thicker 12mm version for walls. This specialised waterproof backing system effectively combats any potential negative effects of water during and after the tiling process.
