Description

Hardiebacker EZ Grid 1200 x 800 x 6mm is a fibre cement backerboard engineered to create a durable, stable substrate for tile and stone finishes in wet and high-temperature applications. The smooth, dimensionally stable surface accommodates precise detailing and supports the weight of natural stone, porcelain and large-format tiles without deflection or movement. The integrated grid pattern aids layout and alignment, reducing setting-out time on site.

Fully non-combustible with an A1 fire rating, the board is suitable for use in fireplace surrounds, high-heat kitchen areas and other fire-risk environments. It resists moisture penetration, swelling and mould growth, contributing to long-term interior durability. At 6mm thickness, the board is lightweight enough for single-handed handling and quick to cut with standard tools, whilst maintaining sufficient rigidity for most residential and light commercial installations.
