Saving You Time And Money

EdgeTech
®
Technology – This patented, reinforced edge allows
fasteners to be installed closer to the board’s edge and reduces damage
from handling.

help to lighten the board’s weight, improve the ease of cutting, and create
lower water absorption, preventing the mortar/finish adhesive from
drying prematurely.
