The 9mm fibre cement board sits at the centre of India’s board export trade: light enough to handle like a ceiling sheet, strong enough for a partition, and priced to compete with double-layer gypsum on almost every wall. OZIANT lists WedgeCem 9 mm boards in 2400 x 1200 mm sheets from Wedge Industries Limited, 100% non-asbestos and autoclave-cured, in CB14 general-purpose grade with CB16 high-density on request.

Nine millimetre is the thickness contractors specify for standard office partitions, soffits, eaves linings, garage ceilings and semi-exposed canopies — anywhere gypsum is too soft and 12 mm is more board than the wall needs. Bending strength is 15 MPa dry with a 12 kJ/m2 impact rating at this thickness in CB16, and the board is non-combustible Class A1. Indicative FOB pricing is US$6.60-8.40 per sheet in container quantities.

Prices on this 9mm fibre cement board listing are indicative FOB India (Nhava Sheva, Mundra or Chennai) as at 31-08-2026 and are quoted in US dollars; the final quotation depends on grade, size mix, packing and cement and fibre prices on the order date.

Export compliance & duty — included in the price

Every shipment from this 9mm 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:

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 volume thickness of India’s board exports

Customs records in the period analysed show 9 mm boards moving in both sheet counts and bulk-weight consignments — a sign of the thickness’s role as the everyday wall and soffit board across the Gulf, South Asia and Africa. It is also the standard soffit and eaves board in cyclone-prone coastal markets, where a screwed 9 mm fibre cement soffit outlasts any timber or PVC alternative.

WedgeCem 9 mm boards are Hatschek-formed, autoclave-cured and conditioned before packing, with batch numbers on every pallet tying back to the mill test certificate. Wedge Industries Limited ships the thickness to more than 45 countries alongside the 6 mm and 12 mm boards listed on this profile.

Packing, containers & shipping

Sheets ship 65 per pallet, poly-wrapped with edge protection and strapping. A 20 ft container takes about 650 sheets (26 t). Supervised loading with photo report before sealing.

Frequently asked questions

Where is a 9mm fibre cement board used instead of 12mm?

Standard office and residential partitions, soffits, eaves, canopy ceilings and garage ceilings — walls that do not carry heavy cabinets or need a 60-minute single-layer rating. It saves roughly 25% board weight and cost per wall against 12 mm while staying non-combustible Class A1.

Can 9mm fibre cement board be used outdoors?

Yes, in protected and semi-exposed positions: soffits, eaves, porch ceilings and ventilated canopies. It passes 25 freeze-thaw cycles and ISO 8336 soak-dry tests. For fully exposed facades, use the cladding board listing on this profile.

What is the weight of a 9mm 2400 x 1200 sheet?

About 38 kg in CB14 grade — a practical two-man lift. A full 20 ft container carries approximately 650 sheets at 26 tonnes; we optimise the pallet count to your port’s weight rules.

Do you supply matching jointing accessories?

We quote boards; jointing compounds, mesh tapes and screws are widely available locally and we share the generic specification (C2 base coat, alkali-resistant mesh, wing-tip screws) so your site teams can buy them anywhere.

How do I get a firm FOB quote for this 9mm fibre cement board?

Use the enquiry form on this page with your quantity, thickness schedule and destination. Wedge Industries Limited replies within 24 hours with an FOB quotation, the compliance checklist for your market and a sample offer.
