Cement-Coated XPS Tile Backer Board
This tile backer board combines an extruded polystyrene foam core with fiberglass mesh and a thin polymer-modified cement mortar coating on both faces. The coated surfaces form a substrate for a specified tiling assembly, while the XPS core provides an insulating layer.
Discuss board thickness, dimensions and the intended wall or floor construction when selecting a configuration. Contractors and distributors can include project quantities, packaging and private-label requirements in a quotation request.

Request the current datasheet and relevant test reports for the supplied board. Confirm whether a value describes the foam core or the complete coated board and check the applicable test conditions.
Wet-Room and Bathroom Applications
Applications include tile substrates for bathroom walls and floors, bath enclosures and other suitably designed tiled features. Board selection is only one part of a wet-area installation: joints, fixing points, penetrations and connections must be detailed using the compatible waterproofing system and installation instructions.
A board on its own should not be treated as proof that the completed room is watertight. Confirm the required joint materials, adhesives and substrate preparation for the selected assembly.
Support and Floor-Heating Compatibility
- Specify whether the board will be used on a floor, supported wall or framed construction.
- Check thickness, fixing method and support requirements for the proposed tile finish.
- For floor heating, confirm compatibility with the heating system and all bonding or covering layers.
- For shelves, benches or enclosures, use a suitable structural detail rather than inferring capacity from the foam-core compressive value.
Prepare Your Inquiry
Provide the board size and thickness, application, required area and delivery destination. Include the intended tile finish and any documentation requirements so that the proposed board configuration can be reviewed.
Build a wholesale board schedule
For distributor and repeat project orders, list each board length, width and thickness as a separate line with its piece count. State whether the requested thickness refers to the finished coated board, and confirm the quoted dimensions and tolerances before comparing offers.
The published material table does not define a fixed stocked size list. Request the available dimensions for the supplied configuration. Similar product names in this range do not establish different performance grades or interchangeable installation details.
- Quote basis: ask whether pricing is per piece or per square metre, and whether packing and transport are included.
- Sample approval: match the board thickness, surface coating and edge finish to the quotation and current datasheet.
- Packing: confirm pieces per pack, pallet dimensions, gross weight, edge protection and labels for mixed-size orders.
- Repeat orders: retain the approved specification and sample reference so changes in facing or dimensions are reviewed before supply.
Send your tile backer board order schedule. Confirm minimum quantity, samples and lead time in the quotation, using the board sample and packing checklist.
Choose plain or grooved tile backing
Compare the cement-coated XPS board for plain tile backing. If the purchase includes water-heating pipe channels, review the grooved XPS backer board and provide a pipe-layout drawing. Return to the tile backer board range to compare constructions.
