The DensShield® 5/8 in. x 4 ft. x 8 ft. Tile Backer Board provides a durable, moisture-resistant surface designed specifically for tile applications in wet areas. Its integrated moisture barrier removes the need for a separate vapor layer, making it ideal for showers, tub surrounds, and other high-humidity spaces.

The added 5/8 in. thickness offers increased rigidity and strength, making it suitable for both residential and commercial installations. The panel cuts easily, installs quickly, and can be used in both wet and dry environments. It is also approved for use in fire-rated wall assemblies and works as a substrate for a wide range of tile and non-tile finishes.
