FIBEROCK® Aqua-Tough™ tile backerboard offers finishing flexibility,
strength, and superior water resistance in a single panel. It is intended for
use in wet areas, including tub and shower surrounds.
FIBEROCK® Aqua-Tough™ tile backerboard is a unique, fiber-reinforced gypsum
product that represents a new era in substrate performance for wet or dry
areas, as recognized within the TCNA Handbook and International Residential
Code. This durable panel offers superior performance and tile bond in addition
to an integral water-resistant core.
Unlike traditional water-resistant gypsum board, FIBEROCK Aqua-Tough tile
backerboard derives both strength and water-resistance from its uniform
composition. Made of a uniquely engineered gypsum/cellulose-fiber combination,
it is strong, water resistant, and mold resistant, scoring a 10, the
highest possible rating on ASTM D 3273. With no paper face to
delaminate, tear, or scratch, it maintains its integrity, even when wet.
The backerboard can be finished with ceramic tile or painted, and has a 20
year limited warranty. It is environmentally friendly, made from 95-percent
recycled materials, earning it Green Cross Certification from Scientific
Certification Systems.
