What is fibre cement?

Fibre cement was developed in the 1980s as a replacement for asbestos products. It is a composite material made up of cement, sand and small fibres. Most commonly seen in sheet form, fibre cement can be used to cover building exteriors and areas which are subject to high fire danger.

Finishes:

KEY-ENDURA is typically supplied raw or with an undercoat for final finish on site. In addition, Keystone now offers KEY-ENDURA with a digital print finish. Thanks to the non-combustibility of the ink, digital printing allows you to create a custom finish whilst retaining the group 1 fire rating of fibre cement. Simply choose a graphic of your choice (such as a timber grain pattern) and we can provide it printed directly onto the substrate to give you a creative edge.

• Can be provided raw for cost-saving;
