Product Overview
  • The XPS Tile Backer Board is a lightweight construction panel designed for tile installation in wet and interior building applications.
  • It consists of a closed-cell extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam core with cementitious coatings reinforced by fiberglass mesh on both sides, providing a waterproof, thermally insulating, and tile-ready substrate.
  • It is designed to replace traditional cement boards, offering easier handling and faster installation.
Key Features:
  • Waterproof Structure

Closed-cell XPS core prevents water absorption, swelling, and mold growth.

  • Thermal Insulation

Helps reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency in building systems.

  • Lightweight & Easy Handling

Significantly lighter than traditional cement boards, easy to cut and install.

  • High Strength & Stability

Reinforced cement coating with fiberglass mesh provides rigidity and load-bearing performance.

  • Tile-Ready Surface

Designed for strong bonding with tile adhesives and mortars.

  • Durable Performance

Resistant to moisture, chemicals, and long-term degradation.

  • Material Structure

Core: Closed-cell XPS foam

Surface: Cementitious coating with fiberglass mesh (both sides)
