Underlayment & BackerBoard FiberCement
 


CertainTeed has applied advanced technology - used to produce our acclaimed CertainTeed FiberCement Siding - to interior ceramic tile underlayment.
The result: CertainTeed FiberCement Underlayment and FiberCement BackerBoard.

These products feature a dense, non-porous surface, making them excellent choices for kitchen and bathroom applications where moisture is a fact of life. The surface and edges are also smoother than those of competing products, for easier installation and neater finished jobs.
