Advantages Of A Render Carrier Board?


  • Provides durable protection for sub-construction systems, extending their lifespan.
  • Resists dirt buildup, contributing to low-maintenance requirements.
  • Manufactured without harmful substances and is environmentally friendly.
  • Guaranteed asbestos-free for safe use in various environments.
  • Classified as A1 for fire safety, meaning it is non-combustible.
  • Does not emit toxic gases when exposed to fire.
  • Highly resistant to moisture and water exposure, reducing risk of warping or swelling.
  • UV-resistant, withstanding prolonged sunlight exposure with minimal degradation.
  • Dimensionally stable, resisting cracking from seasonal temperature changes.
  • Allows for straightforward installation and modifications.
  • Can be precisely cut with suitable tools, such as carbide-tipped saws.
  • Functions as a dry finishing material, eliminating the need for wet screed and associated drying times.
  • Protects and extends the life of insulation materials in thermal and acoustic systems.
  • Exhibits extremely high dimensional stability (<0.19%) compared to chipboard, gypsum, and cement particle boards.
  • Moisture-resistant, effectively reducing water absorption compared to traditional wood and gypsum-based boards.
  • Odourless and does not release toxic gases.
  • Highly resistant to impact, making it suitable for high-traffic areas.
  • Resistant to biological and chemical waste exposure, maintaining structural integrity.
  • Lightweight and easy to transport.
  • Insect-proof, non-putrescible, and resistant to mold growth.
  • Versatile for a wide range of building applications.
  • Compatible with insulation materials of any desired thickness.
  • Provides smooth, precise cuts for fine detailing in installations.
  • Offers very high impact resistance, significantly exceeding that of gypsum-based boards.

Areas Of Use.


  • In suspended ceiling systems: Suitable for use in suspended ceiling applications, providing fire resistance and durability when installed according to guidelines and local building codes.
  • Construction of fire walls: Effective as a component in fire wall construction, offering A1 fire-rated protection, provided it is installed following appropriate fire safety standards.
  • In areas where sound insulation is required: Ideal for sound insulation applications, contributing to noise reduction in various environments; however, it may need to be combined with additional materials to achieve desired soundproofing levels.
  • In thermal insulation systems: Functions as a part of thermal insulation systems, enhancing overall energy efficiency, but it should not be relied upon as the sole insulation material.
  • Backer board for roof covering materials: Serves as a reliable backing material for various roof coverings, ensuring stability and protection when correctly installed to prevent moisture intrusion.
  • As backing material for cabinets or panels: Suitable for use as a backing in cabinets and wall panels, providing structural support and moisture resistance; however, care should be taken to avoid excessive moisture exposure.
  • On walls, parapets, and ceilings of balconies and terraces (non-exposed): Appropriate for covered areas of balconies and terraces, ensuring proper installation away from direct exposure to heavy moisture for long-lasting performance - otherwise 4-6 months uncovered if used with CEMBLOC CemClima tape.
  • Steel column and fake column cladding: Ideal for cladding both structural and decorative columns, offering a consistent finish; proper installation is crucial for maintaining structural integrity.
  • In external and internal render applications: Effective in both external and internal rendering, contributing to the building’s overall performance and appearance, but must be applied correctly to prevent moisture issues.
  • On lift shaft walls: Suitable for installation on lift shaft walls, providing fire protection and durability when adhered to manufacturer specifications and local codes.
  • Outbuilding wall cladding and roofing: Appropriate for cladding and roofing applications in outbuildings, ensuring protection against weather elements, but installation should account for potential moisture exposure.
