GoBoard
GoBoard® by Johns Manville is an ultra-lightweight, waterproof, durable tile backer board that is easy to cut and install, and weighs up to 85% lighter than traditional cement boards allowing for same-day tile. GoBoard is engineered and tested for strength and durability, yet can be cut right where it’s installed using a standard utility knife with minimal dust. Installation time is reduced because waterproofing is built-in, eliminating extra steps since only board joints and fastener locations need to be sealed.
Innovative Tile Systems (ISB)
Ceramic sanitary base creates a hygienic method for treating floor to wall tile transitions. Very few floor tile manufacturers produce a sanitary base to match their product. Many of the pieces that are produced can be costly and may not guarantee a perfect match. The tile industry has found other methods of keeping the floor to wall transition sanitary by using coved stainless steel, aluminum, or plastic strips. While these products create sanitary conditions, they lack in aesthetic value. Inspired by the industrys need for an affordable base that can match the materials of the room perfectly.
