High performance
insulated backer boards.

Built with quality, compliance and accreditation.

Manufactured from high-density extruded polystyrene. The rigid insulating core is coated with a specially formulated, reinforced cementitious coating that provides a hard-wearing robust surface, perfect for the application of tiles/plaster and synthetic render.

Sound reducing, thermal and durable qualities.

The foam core has excellent thermal insulation properties, whilst also providing high compressive strength with very low weight. The cement-based coating enhances the fire-resistant properties, creates a tile-ready surface, and gives the product excellent impact resistance, ensuring that the boards stand up to the rigor of site environments.

Construct simple items or complex large-scale projects.

VipaBoard Tilebacker Boards provide an effective thermal
and moisture barrier, as well as providing an excellent
surface ready to receive a final decorative finish such as
tiles/plaster or flexible render systems.
