Cembrit’s versatile building board, Cembrit PB, which is ideally suited as a stable base for a range of internal and external applications is now available in flex formulation. Cembrit PB Flex has been specifically developed for use on curved walls, arches, vaulted ceilings and around beams and columns.

Cement-based Cembrit PB delivers impressive dimensional stability and water resistance, to minimise expansion and contraction as a result of heat, cold and moisture. Its low water absorbency makes Cembrit PB ideal for use as a tile backer board for any internal wet area application where ceramic tiles will be used as the decorative finish, as well as externally for applications such as rendering, brick slips or stone cladding. With the newly-launched Cembrit PB Flex, it is now possible to render onto curved surfaces, including columns, spiral staircases and archways.

Cembrit Marketing Manager, Ged Ferris, said "For contractors working on rendering projects with curved surfaces, Flex is the ideal solution. Rather than requiring mechanical cutting, Cembrit PB Flex can be scored and snapped, making it incredibly user-friendly. We have a network of nationwide stockists ready to supply the product, which will ensure impressive and convenient lead times.”
