Villaboard Lining
Villaboard™ is a heavy-duty wall lining compared to plasterboard. Ideal for use in bathrooms and wet areas, if the waterproofing fails you can rest assure that Villaboard won’t. Resistant to damage from moisture, it won’t deform or lose its structural integrity which means fewer call backs and less costly rectifications. Villaboard also has incredible hanging power for tiles, hooks and fixings. With a tensile bond strength up to 75 per cent greater than 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™ sheet used, ensuring expensive bathroom tiles are always secure - Please refer to the product installation guide for further information of maximum tile thicknesses and weights. Use it on walls and ceilings in bathrooms, laundries, kitchens and high-traffic areas, and even in multi-residential and commercial buildings.

Secura Internal Flooring
Scyon Secura™ interior flooring is a great option for wet areas such as bathrooms, as well as dry areas like bedrooms. Versatile, light and durable, Secura is dual function. While one side is designed for tiled applications and includes a sealant gap, the other side is perfect for vinyl or carpet applications where the tongue and groove joint is gapless. Secura also does away with the need for a vinyl underlay. Secura sheets have a moisture resistant sealer on all sides removing the need for waterproofing outside enclosed shower areas. It can be exposed to the elements for up to 3 months without warping or twisting or requiring sanding. Secura includes tongue and groove joins which can be secured with a nail gun, so there’s no need for pre-drilling and screwing.
