Hardie® Backer Tile Backer Board | 1200mm x 800mm x 12mm
Upgrade your tiling projects with the unmatched protection against moisture damage provided by Hardie® Backer tiling backer board.
Specifically designed for walls in moisture-sensitive areas such as kitchens and bathrooms, Hardie® Backer 12mm is the go-to solution for areas that are highly susceptible to water damage. Unlike traditional tile backer boards that falter under the threat of moisture, Hardie® Backer offers a durable, mould-resistant, and water-resistant cement formulation. This makes it an exceptional alternative to plasterboard, delivering superior protection against moisture damage.
