Application

Internal wall in wet areas where flat surface is required for tiles, wallpaper or paint.

Fire Resistance

New Element’s calcium silicate and fiber cement boards are fire resistant, providing exceptional protection in case of fire. Made from non-combustible materials, these boards prevent the spread of flames, enhancing the fire safety of any structure. Ideal for both residential and commercial applications, they comply with fire safety regulations and offer reliable performance in high-risk areas.

Backer Board

The Backer Board is a specially developed fiber cement panel whose embossed surface provides excellent adhesion for bonding materials — making it the ideal substrate for tiling in wet areas. It delivers a stable, water-resistant and durable base for tiles, mosaics and other surface finishes.
