Tiled countertops are often constructed with plywood decks, which are dimensionally unstable and moisture-sensitive. Additional work is required to prepare the surface for tile installation, which can be time-consuming.
Schluter-KERDI-BOARD is particularly suitable for building countertops and other work surfaces with tile coverings. KERDI-BOARD is dimensionally stable and waterproof and can be adhered directly to base cabinets, thus eliminating the need for labor-intensive preparation. Panels and openings are easily cut with a utility knife.
The visible edges can be finished in a number of ways, including:
Panel thicknesses of 1-1/2" (38 mm) or 2" (50 mm) are recommended when adhering KERDI-BOARD directly to base cabinets.
