Cement Board

[lucius]

Hi all, someone was telling me today that they have seen a cement board that has superior strength than ply that can span joists, anyone heard of it or is it a myth?

 

[Stef]

Was it Brio board by any chance?

Hardie do one.

Don't know Steph ile take a look, whats the Hardie one called IHB cant see it on there website but I can only get there American site for some reason

 

[Stef]

There was a video kicking about of the Hardie one a while back but I've never seen or used it...

 

[lucius]

Just found it on there website its called Hardiefloor definitely the way forward but I bet no one stocks it.

 

[On one]

I bet it isn't light either

Not cheap. Still a pain to cut.

My supplier has 25mm NMP that can go straight onto joists and then tile on, just at prototype stage as yet

Ctd are stocking the 25mm hardie now, I'm sure that's what I was told when I was in there last. Comes in 2.4x0.6m lengths and another smaller measurement if I recall correctly.
