CBOARD RG
CBOARD RG
OVERVIEW
Cboard® RG is composed of Portland cement, high purity silica sand, reinforcing pulp recycled in our facilities and additives for water, and fire resistance properties.
Cboard® RG is a state-of-the-art asbestos free, highly durable and practical board used in many finishing applications; partition walls, dry linings, suspended ceilings, flooring. Cboard® RG is impact resistant, durable and requires low maintenance. All materials are certified based on ASTM and EN standards and tested in approved laboratories.
