The fibre cement board 2440 x 1220 mm sheet is the true imperial 8 x 4 ft module — the size UK, Gulf, African and Caribbean framing systems are set out on, where a metric 2400 x 1200 mm sheet leaves a 40 mm shortfall on every run. OZIANT lists WedgeCem 2440 x 1220 mm boards from Wedge Industries Limited in 12, 18, 20, 22 and 40 mm thicknesses, 100% non-asbestos and autoclave-cured.
Indian export records in the period analysed show the 2440 x 1220 mm size concentrated in the heavy thicknesses — 18 mm flooring sheets around US$16.70 average FOB and 40 mm deck panels — reflecting its role in mezzanine, modular-building and fit-out packages for imperial-module markets. Indicative FOB pricing for the 18 mm workhorse is US$14.40-16.90 per sheet, with other thicknesses quoted on enquiry or via their dedicated listings on this profile.

Export compliance & duty — included in the price
Every shipment from this fibre cement board 2440 x 1220 listing is prepared for the destination market by ZJELL Limited, the Wedge Group’s export-consulting company, so that documentation is never the reason a consignment is delayed. The following are included or arranged:
- 100% non-asbestos (chrysotile-free) declaration with every shipment
- ISO 8336:2006 type-test report and batch mill test certificate
- ASTM C1185 flexural strength certificate per batch
- EN 13501-1 A1 classification report — arranged by ZJELL Limited
- CE marking support to EN 12467 for EU and UK buyers — relevant for the CETA 0% route
- Third-party pre-shipment inspection (SGS / BV / Intertek) on request
Import duty position (verify with your broker before ordering): UK: India-UK CETA in force from 15-07-2026 — 6811 lines at 0%, a direct advantage on this UK-module size. USA: HTS 6811.82 MFN free; the 10% reciprocal tariff on Indian goods (from 24-07-2026) still prices India below China. GCC: 5% common external tariff. EU: low single-digit MFN; India-EU FTA not yet in force.
The true 8 x 4 ft sheet for imperial framing markets
Imperial-module markets never fully metricated their building stock: UK loft and mezzanine joists, Gulf villa framing and African roof carpentry still run on 16 in and 24 in centres, and an 8 x 4 ft board lands on those centres without a cut. Ordering the true 2440 x 1220 mm sheet removes the 40 mm rip cut — and the wasted labour — from every board a metric sheet would need.
Wedge Industries Limited, with its own UK manufacturing base, ships this size with UK-market documentation as standard — CE/UKCA support to EN 12467 and the CETA preferential certificate of origin that brings the UK duty to zero.
Packing, containers & shipping

Frequently asked questions
Why order 2440 x 1220 instead of 2400 x 1200?
Because your framing is imperial. On 400 mm/16 in or 600 mm/24 in joist centres set out in feet, the 2440 x 1220 mm sheet lands on centres full-width; a 2400 mm sheet finishes 40 mm short of the fourth joist and every board needs a rip cut. Match the sheet to the framing and the waste disappears.
Which thicknesses are stocked in this size?
12 mm for partitions and sheathing, 18 mm as the flooring standard, 20 and 22 mm for heavy decks, and 40 mm dry-screed panels. 18 mm is the price leader in this listing; the 40 mm panel has its own listing on this profile with panel-specific data.
Is this the right sheet for UK buyers under CETA?
Yes — 6811 board lines enter the UK at 0% under the India-UK CETA in force since 15-07-2026, and ZJELL Limited prepares the preferential certificate of origin with every UK consignment. Combined with CE/UKCA support to EN 12467, the sheet is retail-ready.
Can 2440 and 2400 sheets mix in one container?
Yes, at the same price bands, provided each size meets its pallet minimum. Many importers serving both metric and imperial contractors split containers 50/50; state the split on your enquiry.
