If you can dream it, you can build it with KERDI-BOARD.
KERDI-BOARD is a high-strength composite panel made from extruded polystyrene foam, with
a cement-free reinforcement layer laminated to both sides and a fleece webbing that makes
it easy to anchor the board with thin-set mortar.
The panels are available in eight different thicknesses, ranging from three-sixteenths
to two inches.
There are specially-configured panels available as well.
KERDI-BOARD-U provides a U-shaped substrate that makes it easy to conceal pipes and columns.
Similar to this is the KERDI-BOARD-E, which is an L-shaped panel used to create 90° corners
and pipe or column coverings without wood or metal framing.
KERDI-BOARD-V is a grooved building panel for creating curved elements such as columns,
free-standing walls, tub surrounds, and shower walls.
We also offer a variety of pre-fabricated, waterproof substrates made of KERDI-BOARD
that integrate with the Schluter-Shower System!
The KERDI-BOARD-SN niche is quick and easy to install in showers and bathtub surrounds.
It integrates with both KERDI-BOARD and KERDI membrane wall assemblies. The larger sizes
include a tillable shelf that can be installed at any height to create separate compartments
within the niche. The KERDI-BOARD-SB shower bench and KERDI-BOARD-SC
shower curb are lightweight, stable, load-bearing, and quick and easy to install.
Schluter offers a specialized line of profiles designed to fasten, stabilize, and finish
KERDI-BOARD applications in conjunction with Schluter® wall profiles.
KERDI-BOARD-ZA is a U-shaped profile with two perforated sides. The brushed stainless
steel surface finishes the faces of partition walls, shelves, and similar structures made
with KERDI-BOARD.
KERDI-BOARD-ZC is a U-shaped profile with a perforated top and brushed stainless steel
face and underside to finish countertops and vanities.
The KERDI-BOARD-ZB U-shaped profile is used to reinforce structures like partitions and
floating shower seats. All three sides are perforated to allow tiling of all surfaces.
KERDI-BOARD-ZW is a stainless steel angle profile with two perforated anchoring legs
that is used to fasten and stabilize structures made of KERDI-BOARD. This profile is ideal
for partitions and is anchored into the substrate using screws or thin-set mortar.
Finally, KERDI-BOARD-ZFP is a flat plastic profile, which is adhered behind the KERDI-BOARD-ZA
profile to improve fastening of hardware to the face of partition walls or similar.
A variety of attachment hardware is available for KERDI-BOARD building panels, including
screws and washers, anchors, and adhesive tapes.
KERDI-BOARD-ZS coarse thread screws are used to fasten KERDI-BOARD to wood stud framing
with the corresponding KERDI-BOARD-ZT washers.
The galvanized steel washers feature tabs that penetrate the surface of the KERDI-BOARD
to temporarily hold them in place and enable quick installation of the appropriate screws.
KERDI-BOARD-ZSD anchors provide additional mechanical attachment of KERDI-BOARD to masonry
walls when the bond between the thin-set mortar and the substrate is questionable.
KERDI-BOARD-ZDK is a double-sided adhesive tape used to attach KERDI-BOARD panels in
joint areas or similar. KERDI-BOARD-ZSA is a single-sided adhesive
tape for reinforcing the joint areas of KERDI-BOARD panels where waterproofing is not required.
Using all of these elements in various combinations provides you endless means to create anything
you can imagine. All while ensuring your installation is stable and well supported.
