Fiberock brand Aqua-Tough tile backerboard offers finishing flexibility, strength, and superior water-resistance in a single panel. It is a fiber-reinforced gypsum product that can be used for wet or dry areas, although mainly intended for use in wet areas including tub and shower surrounds. Building environments include: Patient rooms, health and fitness, locker rooms/shower areas/pools, kitchens/food prep areas, cafeterias, single-family residential, multi-family residential/condos, guest rooms/suites, restrooms/utility rooms/loading docks, dormitories, and bars/restaurants/dining areas. This durable panel offers superior performance and tile bond in addition to an integral water-resistant core. Unlike traditional water-resistant gypsum board, FIBEROCK Aqua-Tough tile backerboard derives both strength and water-resistance from its uniform composition.

With no paper face to delaminate, tear, or scratch, it maintains its integrity, even when wet. The backerboard can be finished with ceramic tile or painted, and has a 20 year limited warranty.
