James Hardie 9mm Villaboard Lining

James Hardie 9mm Villaboard Lining

Villaboard™ is a durable wall lining, ideal for use under tiles, which makes it perfect for your kitchen, bathroom and laundry.

Unlike Plasterboard, Villaboard™ Lining is inherently resistant to moisture damage and rot. It won’t deform or lose its structural integrity when exposed to moisture, which can help to reduce the extent of damage and resulting repair costs in the event of accidents.

Villaboard™ Lining has incredible hanging power for tiles, hooks and fixings. With a tensile bond strength up to 75 per cent greater than commonly used wet area plasterboard, it can hold tiles with a maximum weight between 30 and 60 kg/m2 depending on the thickness of the tiles and Villaboard™ Lining sheet used, to help ensure expensive bathroom tiles are secure.

It is ideal for paint, wallpaper, tiles, or even a combination of these on the same wall, creating a wide range of designs to suit your home. Villaboard™ Lining also suits many other areas of the home. It is impact resistant and has excellent acoustic performance, making it ideal for high-traffic areas like hallways and garages.
