IBS FIBRE® WAB is a high-performance fibre cement board designed to meet the needs of both homeowners and builders. This innovative product offers exceptional durability, ease of installation, and versatility, making it the ideal choice for a wide range of construction projects.

Fibre cement is manufactured through a meticulous process that involves several key steps to ensure the material’s strength, durability, and versatility.

The primary raw materials used in the production of fibre cement include high-grade cellulose pulp fibre, finely ground sand, Portland cement, and water.

Initially, bales of cellulose pulp are dissolved in water and milled to the desired fineness.

This slurry is then combined with synthetic fibres and other additives in large vats, where hydrogen bridges form during the chemical process, binding the ingredients together.

The mixture is then transferred to an intensive mixer, where cement is added, and the setting process begins.
