Tile Backer Board
Create the backbone of your wetroom.
Thermopanel Tile Backer Boards are waterproof, lightweight, and high-performance boards designed for tiling on walls and floors in wetrooms, bathrooms, and other high-moisture environments. They provide superior insulation, structural stability, and strong adhesion for tiles, making them an essential component for any professional wetroom installation.
Thermopanel Tile Backer boards are specifically designed for two primary purposes:
- As a first class heat insulation for underfloor heating systems.
- As a superior waterproof surface to fix wall or floor tiles.
Key Features:
- Waterproof & Moisture-Resistant – Protects walls and floors from water damage, mold, and dampness.
- Strong & Stable – Supports even the heaviest tiles, making it more reliable than plasterboard.
- Excellent Heat Insulation – With a thermal conductivity of 0.027 W/mK, it enhances underfloor heating efficiency.
- Lightweight & Easy to Handle – Can be easily cut, shaped, and installed using standard tools.
- Compatible with Underfloor Heating – Reduces heat-up time and improves energy efficiency.
- Impact & Sound Insulation – Helps to reduce noise and vibrations, making it ideal for residential and commercial use.
- Versatile Applications – Suitable for walls, floors, wetrooms, shower enclosures, and exterior cladding.
