ePanel is a Lightweight insulated tile backing board (600mm x 1200mm x 10mm or 600mm x 1200mm x 6mm) developed specifically for use with tiles floors. It consists of a Polyfoam core with glass fibre reinforced polymer-modified cement faces.
ePanel is dimensionally stable, doesn't rot or warp and provides excellent resistance to moisture. It also offers the additional benefit of a high level of thermal insulation, making it the ideal substrate for floor tiling over eMat heating systems.
ePanel is extremely light (2.6kg/m2). It's easy to cut (using fine tooth saw, jigsaw or Stanley knife, for example) and to work with.
