General
PRIMA products are manufactured by Saint-Gobain, in accordance with AS/NZS 2908.2. The manufacturing process combines Portland cement, water, finely ground sand, softwood cellulose fibre pulp and additives which are then cured under under high-pressure steam in an autoclave to form a dimensionally stable fibre cement panel.
PRIMA CTU can be directly fixed to an existing timber, particle board and plywood floor. The material is suitable for use as substrate for ceramic floor tiles on existing timber floor boards with minimal surface preparation.
