External Insulation System

AQUAPANEL

Cement Board technology sets new standards for the design and construction of buildings throughout Ireland. Developed by Knauf USG, the AQUAPANEL Cement Board system provides architects and distributors with a high quality and extremely economical alternative to traditional methods of construction, such as brick and block. AQUAPANEL Cement Board can be used in various types of exterior walls, in exterior ceilings, in façade renovations and other types of external and special projects.

 

AQUAPANEL Cement Board is an extremely durable building material, providing a solid, dry base that can withstand the extreme weathering effects of wind, rain and snow. It can be used as a basis for exterior walls in ventilated systems or water-managed (directly-applied) systems. As well as the panel and standard accessories, the AQUAPANEL Cement Board system can also include an AQUAPANEL plaster system for surface treatment.
