Fiber Cement Board: Types, Sizes, and Applications

Fiber Cement Board: Types, Sizes, and Applications

1. Classification by Material

Fiber cement boards can be categorized based on their composition and manufacturing process:

  1. By Fiber Type
  • Asbestos fiber cement boards
  • Synthetic fiber cement boards (e.g., cellulose, PVA fiber)
  • Hybrid fiber cement boards (asbestos + synthetic fibers)
  1. By Cement Type
  • Ordinary Portland cement boards
  • Low-alkali cement boards (anti-efflorescence, ideal for interiors)
  1. By Production Process
Fiber Cement Board

Common Product Types

Name (Abbreviation)Key Features
Fiber-Reinforced Low-Alkali Board (TK Board)Moisture-resistant, crack-resistant, suitable for partitions & ceilings
Asbestos-Free Large-Format Pressurized Board (NAFC Board)High strength, large panels, ideal for exteriors & structural use
Asbestos-Free Lightweight Board (NAL Board)Lightweight, easy to install, used for interior walls
Non-Combustible Fiber Cement BoardA1 fire-rated, used in fireproof zones
Asbestos Cement Pressure BoardTraditional material, being phased out
Glass Fiber Reinforced Cement (GRC)High flexibility, decorative applications

Fiber Cement Board

Other Key Sizes

  • Non-Combustible Board: 2440×1220mm, thickness 4–20mm (Eterboard up to 20mm)
  • GRC Board: Max 2700×1200mm, thickness 10–20mm (ideal for decorative designs)

3. Recommended Applications

  • Exterior/Structural Use: NAFC pressurized boards (thickness ≥8mm)
  • Interior Walls: TK or NAL boards (lightweight, easy to cut)
  • Fireproofing: Non-combustible boards (A1 fire rating)
  • Decorative Purposes: GRC boards (high flexibility for custom designs)

  1. This text provides detailed information about fiber cement boards and their categorization based on composition and manufacturing process. It also mentions the availability of additional technical specifications such as density and flexural strength. The address provided seems to be related to a location in China. For more specific details, further information can be obtained. Can you explain more about the manufacturing process of fiber cement boards?

    1. Of course you can, we are professional in generating fiber cement board in China, I can send you our generating process.
      May I ask what industry you are engaged in and do you have the opportunity to cooperate on fiber cement board?
