The cement coated insulation boards are a water resistant, insulated board made of extruded polystyrene, faced on both sides with a fibreglass mesh embedded into a thin cement polymer mortar.

The board is designed to withstand a load of 30 tonnes per square metre and is ideal for use with floor heating as it prevents the heat from penetrating down into the substrate below.
