FASTER
Now weight-optimised for exceptionally
light performance, Knauf Aquapanel®
Interior Cement Board saves costs in
transportation and effort in handling –
while still delivering dimensional stability
and best-in-class performance in the wet.
Even simpler to score and snap and
with a bending radius of 1 m –
without needing to cut strips – the
new board also features two types
of joint treatment, so it’s easier than
ever to install.
As easy to use as gypsum board,
the new light cement board
means faster installation, higher
productivity and increased
profitability, even in the most
challenging wet areas.
