Knauf Aquapanel

Knauf Aquapanel Exterior is a 100% Cement Board that is usually fixed to a supporting drained and ventilated framework off the structure, this framework can be either metal or treated timber.

The Knauf Aquapanel Exterior Cement Board is the ideal backing board for boarded directly applied render systems including Norstone and has the following major advantages:

Ease of use - score and snap cutting, no need to pre drill when fixing.
Can be easily curved without detrimental effect to performance, to 3 metres radius, and down to 1 metre radius when in 300 mm strips.
It is made from Portland cement and contains no organic fillers, therefore it is completely dimensionally stable and robust, and has no potential of mould growth or rot.
When the wall is taped and jointed it can be left without finish as a weatherproof wall for up to 6 months before being finished.
Applicators already using the Knauf Aquapanel Exterior Cement Board claim that the Basecoat drys much faster in comparison to other boards.
Manufactured and backed by a major global company - Knauf - details and specifications available with technical backing and support.
Distributors can take single pallet loads and not be left holding stock after supplying smaller projects.
Knauf Aquapanel Exterior is BBA certified and therefore is approved by NHBC, Premier Guarantee and LABC.
Knauf Aquapanel Exterior is CE Marked as a result of the ETA (European Technical Approval) Certificate.
