A 6mm fibre cement board is the standard false-ceiling and wall-lining sheet across the Gulf, Africa and South Asia — non-combustible where gypsum is merely fire-resistant, and unaffected by the humidity that ruins POP ceilings within a monsoon season. OZIANT lists WedgeCem 6 mm boards in 2400 x 1200 mm sheets from Wedge Industries Limited, 100% non-asbestos, autoclave-cured, in CB13 insulation grade and CB14 general grade.
At 6 mm the WedgeCem board delivers a 51 dB acoustic insulation system rating, Class A1 non-combustibility and a 9 kJ/m2 impact rating — the specification written into hotel corridor ceilings, hospital service zones, kitchen ceilings and duct enclosures. Indicative FOB pricing is US$4.50-5.90 per sheet in container quantities, which lands the board at a price competitive with premium gypsum while outlasting it several times over in wet climates.

Export compliance & duty — included in the price
Every shipment from this 6mm fibre cement board 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
- MSDS (GHS), certificate of origin and packing list with every consignment
Import duty position (verify with your broker before ordering): UK: India-UK CETA in force from 15-07-2026 — 6811 lines at 0%. 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 ceiling board that ships by the million
Six millimetre boards move out of Indian ports in both sheet-count and bulk-weight consignments, and the customs data for the period analysed puts the thickness among the top volume lines of the trade. The driver is replacement demand: every humid-climate market that once fitted POP or gypsum ceilings is re-fitting in fibre cement.
WedgeCem 6 mm boards are Hatschek-formed and autoclave-cured flat, then conditioned to 6-8% moisture so sheets stay true on long ceiling runs. The CB13 grade adds measurable thermal insulation (0.167 W/m-K) for roof-deck ceilings in hot climates — a line few exporters offer at this thickness.

Sheets ship 100 per pallet, poly-wrapped with edge protection and strapping. A 20 ft container takes about 1,000 sheets (26 t). Supervised loading with photo report before sealing.

Frequently asked questions
Is a 6mm fibre cement board better than gypsum for ceilings?
In any humid or wet-climate market, yes: it does not sag, powder or grow mould, it is non-combustible Class A1 rather than merely fire-resistant, and it takes paint the same day. At container prices of US$4.50-5.90 per sheet it competes directly with premium gypsum board.
Can 6mm fibre cement board be used on walls?
Yes — as a lining board over masonry, framing or old walls, and for duct and riser covering. For stud partitions that take doors and fixtures, step up to the 9 mm or 12 mm listings on this profile; mixed containers are accepted.
How is a 6mm ceiling board jointed?
Either express-jointed with a 4-6 mm shadow gap on a concealed grid, or flush-jointed with alkali-resistant mesh and a cementitious compound on tapered-edge boards. Both methods are covered in the fixing guide shipped with the documents.
What is the difference between CB13 and CB14 grade at 6 mm?
CB13 is the 1300 kg/m3 insulation grade — highest thermal resistance, lighter sheets, ideal for ceilings under hot roofs. CB14 at 1450 kg/m3 is stronger (15 MPa) for linings and semi-exposed soffits. Both are A1 non-combustible; both price in the same band at 6 mm.
