A cement board is a type of building material made from a mixture of cement and reinforcing fibers, often used as a substrate for tile installation or as a moisture-resistant backing in construction. Cement boards are valued for their durability, water resistance, and fire-resistant properties, making them ideal for areas exposed to moisture or heat.
