NEW SCORE & SNAP TILE BACKER BOARD FROM EUROFORM

Latest News Thu, Jul 28, 2022 9:42 AM

A new, lightweight, ‘score & snap’ tile backer board has been launched by construction materials supplier Euroform. Named ‘Easyboard®’, the fibre cement board is designed for use in areas of high moisture, such as kitchens and bathrooms, and has secured an A1 non-combustible rating.

Easyboard®‘s ‘score & snap’ nature is an innovative development for a tile backer board – it is scored easily with a traditional utility knife and snapped to size without the use of specialist cutting equipment. In addition, its relative lightweight (approx. 13 Kg per 800mm x 1200mm sheet) means that it can be lifted and fitted by a single installer or DIY user.

Easyboard® has been classified A1 “non-combustible” according to (BS) EN 13501-1.

Manufacture is via a unique process, combining Ordinary Portland Cement with a reinforcing matrix, that enhances workability and handling over traditional fibre cement boards.

Available in 12.5mm thickness Easyboard® is inorganic, making it very dimensionally stable compared with traditional wood-based boards.

Commenting on the new product, Mark Atkinson, Euroform’s national commercial manager, said, “Easyboard® is lightweight and a handy size for a single person to install. Its workability, with its ease of cutting, is a significant improvement over traditional tile backer boards. Competitive pricing is also going to make it an attractive new alternative.”

Easyboard® is only available from Euroform.

Euroform recommends Easyboard® is installed in brick bond fashion with a flexible adhesive used when placing tiles. It can be used as a wall tile or floor tile substrate.
