With its unique cement formulation, Hardie® Backer board has no loose aggregates or fillers, making it the strongest, most uniform composition. Moisture and mould-sensitive areas like kitchens and bathrooms are particularly prone to the negative influence of water on tile backer boards. Whereas traditional materials such as plywood and plasterboard are liable to break or disintegrate when wet, have confidence that your job will last with a board that stays strong and firm, no matter how damp it gets. Get the best protection against moisture damage when you use HardieBacker® board. It’s the floor tiling backer board of choice wherever superior performance is required. The light, easy-to-cut, no-mesh board features our exclusive EZ Grid recessed pattern, making installation even easier.
