It is an understatement that sector specific awards are even more emphasized in the midst of the global pandemic - products and services recognised for their excellence in delivering value to the industry during the past 12 months deserve a round of applause.
One such product is a long established medium from a reputable manufacturer that is well-known to the industry for over 3 decades. The first of its kind in the whole of Europe, the wedi building board is the base of all wedi’s tile backer product solutions and is a medium yet to be conquered for its reliability, versatility and ease of use in bathroom design. It is not only 100% waterproof to its core with the best thermal value of 0.036Wm2K amongst tile setting backgrounds on the UK market but its load-bearing capability of 133 kg/m2 is also second to none when it comes to tile backer boards. Manufactured with 100% renewable energy and at least 25% recycled core material, wedi products have their own Environmental Product Declarations and due to producing very little dust when worked on also contribute to a safe working environment. Allowing for more complex, tailored designs whilst keeping labour and installation time to a minimum, the wedi building board was recognised as number one delivering on product and service through what has undoubtedly been a difficult and unstable year for all winning the Tomorrow’s Tile and Stone Awards 2021.
