ABOUT SUPABOARD
The underlying technology in the SUPA range
SUPABOARD, a high performing composite board developed by BUILDITECO, is the power behind Australia's most flexible and cost-effective wall cladding and subfloor systems. This flexibility and affordability has enabled the development of leading products including SUPAFLOOR, SUPAWALL, SUPAFENCE.
What makes SUPABOARD popular is that it rates extremely highly for thermal insulation, moisture resistance and acoustic performance while conveniently being supplied in lightweight, easy to handle panels. This unique combination performs as well as fibre cement sheeting while reducing construction time and costs, so it is no surprise that more and more architects and builders are making SUPAFLOOR and SUPAWALL their first choice at the planning stage of construction.
SUPABOARD is a versatile, high performance, sustainable and eco-friendly ‘green’ building product. It is manufactured using naturally occurring materials and requires minimal energy input during the process, which is carried out at room temperature, making this a low carbon emission product. The manufacture of Supaboard produces around 90% less pollutants compared to Portland cement based products. Since no heat or pressure is used in its manufacture, 20-40% less energy is required to manufacture Supaboard comparative to Portland cement-based boards. It is 100% recyclable and has a low CO² footprint.

More About Supaboard
Stable
SUPABOARD has several other beneficial properties, such as being resistant to water and fire, insects, termites, mould and mildew. It is non-toxic and free from asbestos and carcinogenic materials. SUPABOARD is dimensionally stable with low expansion and contraction. It will not delaminate or deteriorate after prolonged exposure to moisture, even when immersed in water or exposed to freeze/thaw cycles for prolonged periods of time.
Flexible
Compared to traditional wood, gypsum and cement based products, it is ideal for high tech engineering applications and general purpose construction. It provides superior moisture resistance in high-humidity areas and does not support the growth of mould or mildew. It has a low thermal conductivity of 0.179 W/m·K and a very low vapour resistance, making it ideal for use in “breathable” construction, this helps to provide a healthier indoor living environment.
Convenient
SUPABOARD is lightweight and high strength, extremely quick and easy to use, reducing labour cost and building time. It exhibits a similar versatility to using timber and can be cut, sawn, drilled, nailed, screwed or stapled with hand or power tools. SUPABOARD has a smooth surface on one side; which is ready for wallpaper, paint or finished with veneer, stone, laminate or vinyl. SUPABOARD’s rough sanded texture on the reverse is suitable for applying a variety of bonded applications such as ceramic tiles.
