Building Boards

Board solutions for wet areas

Buildings boards became popular over traditional building construction techniques such as brick and block as a time-saving alternative. This trend is now particularily pronounced in very demanding applications such as interior and exterior wet areas. ADFORS supports building board manufacturers with a wide range of reinforcement solutions dedicated to cement, gypsum, and EPS/XPS boards.

Cement Boards

Cement board technology is recognized as the obvious choice for customers seeking for the best-in-class performance that withstand challenging wet and humid conditions either in interior (e.g. swimming pools, collective showers) and exterior applications (e.g. building façades).

Leveraging on our extensive experience acquired in North-America, Adfors developed for its European customers several PVC-coated reinforcement solutions that are alkali-resistant, and provide excellent adherence with the cementitious matrix. Our Laid Scrim or hybrid (here Laid Scrim and Glass Mat) solutions will help the cement board processability and to obtain its final properties (e.g. mechanical strength, dimensional stability).

Gypsum Boards

Gypsum board technology is gaining popularity into challenging wet areas, and is a reliable lightweight alternative to cement boards either in interior (e.g. swimming pools, collective showers) and exterior applications (e.g. building façades).

With its coated glass mat technology, ADFORS provides gypsum board manufacturers with an alternative to paper-faced solutions with a superior weather resistance including water repellancy, UV and mold resistance. Its surface is printable which enables our customers spread out their branding strategy.

Our glass mat can also be used without being coated to improve the fire resistance and mechanical strength of the gypsum board.
