Fibre cement board, also known as fibre reinforced cement (FRC), is a versatile and durable building material. It is a composite material made primarily of:

Cellulose fibres: These act as a filler, providing strength and flexibility. The fibres are sourced from plantation-grown Radiata pine trees, making the material eco-friendly.

Portland cement: This binds the ingredients together, creating a strong and solid material. It is made from limestone, clay, and iron, readily available natural resources.

Sand: This adds to the weather resistance and resilience of the board. It provides a stable and durable base for the other components.

Water: This dissolves the wood pulp and activates the hardening process of the cement. It is essential for the formation of the final product.

In addition to these main components, small amounts of other chemical additives may be included. These additives can enhance specific properties, such as fire resistance, insect resistance, or water resistance.
