STS CONSTRUCTION BOARDS 6mm | 9mm | 12mm

STS fibre cement construction boards can be used in a wide range of applications both internally and externally, covering 4 key areas including fire protection, sound reduction, moisture resistance and render application.
These robust fibre cement boards are great for many applications including: cladding receivers, sheathing board, render carrier, tile backing, sound reduction, fire protection, sound reduction, thermal properties and termite resistance.
The boards are particularly suitable for partition walling in damp or wet areas, such as bathrooms. They are also weather-resistant, so can be exposed to poor weather on site during the construction phase without concern. Due to their fibre cement composition and structural strength, they are superior to traditionally used flooring boards. By using the 12mm STS Construction Board you have the assurance of a solid foundation meaning not only a stunning render finish, but also the peace of mind that it will last for years and remain crack free. Construction Boards are also A1 fire rated and an ideal board to use behind wood burning stoves. The density of STS Construction Boards provides the perfect solution for decibel (dB) reduction for party wall partitioning. In fact, the STS Construction Board system offers up to 50dB reduction. Boards come in variants: 1200x800x9mm, 1200x2400x9mm, 1200x800x12mm, 1200x2400x12mm. Being  strong, STS 12mm Construction Board can accept wall mounted fixings without the need to secure to stud beams. Boards are easily fixed to timber or metal stud work, and to solid walls using STS fixing products. Moreover, panels will also support fittings such as toilet roll holders, shower curtain rails, vanity mirrors, shelves and pictures when appropriate fixings are used. Furthermore, fibre cement provides a unique bonding surface for thin coat render systems and comes highly endorsed by industry leading render manufacturers such as K-Rend, Atlas and Ecorend. As well as the great bonding surface of fibre cement, the high strength and rigidity of the STS board along with great weatherproof properties provides the perfect render board carrier.
