Product Overview
XPS Tile Backer Board is a high-performance waterproof construction panel designed for tile installation and wet-area building systems.
The board features a closed-cell extruded polystyrene (XPS) foam core combined with cement-based coating reinforced with fiberglass mesh on both sides, creating a lightweight yet rigid panel that is fully waterproof and ready for tile installation.
This type of composite structure integrates waterproofing, thermal insulation, and tile support into one panel, making it widely used in modern bathroom construction and renovation.
Compared with traditional cement boards, XPS backer boards offer easier handling, faster installation, and improved thermal insulation performance.
Key Features
100% Waterproof Core
Closed-cell XPS foam structure prevents water absorption, swelling, and mold growth, making it ideal for wet environments.
Excellent Thermal Insulation
XPS core provides high thermal insulation performance and helps reduce heat loss in building systems.
Lightweight & Easy Installation
Much lighter than traditional cement boards. Easy to cut, drill, and shape using standard construction tools.
High Structural Strength
Reinforced cement coating with embedded fiberglass mesh ensures rigidity and strong support for tile finishes.
Tile-Ready Surface
Cementitious coating creates a stable and flat substrate for ceramic tile, porcelain tile, stone, and mosaic installation.
Durable & Long Service Life
Resistant to moisture, mold, rot, and common construction chemicals.
Environmentally Friendly
CFC-free XPS foam core and recyclable materials.
