wedi 1/8 inch Building Panels under mosaic strips
wedi’s 1/8 inch Building Panel can be used to perfectly install mosaic
accent strips into a large format wall tile assembly. This helps avoid
excessive mortar build-up and leveling when trying to evenly align the
eld tile with the thinner mosaic tile strip. The strips of wedi Building
Panel could even be pre-tiled in the shop and simply adhered into
the wall assembly on-site using thinset mortar applied to the back
of the strip only.

wedi Building Panel in Tub and Shower Surrounds
wedi Building Panels are an integral system component in wedi Fundo
®
Shower System assemblies. wedi Building Panels are
also ideal for use as a tile backer board when installed over framed or solid wall structures where it provides a waterproof and
tileable wall surround in combination with a pre-made tub or shower base unit. wedi Building Panels can offer special benets
in these installations. wedi Building Panels can be installed directly to the edge of the tub unit with just a bead of wedi Joint
Sealant in between.
What’s more, the wedi Building Panels can be notched out at the bottom
back side to install over a nailing ange on one or more sides of the
tub unit. With wedi Building Panels, you can create plumb and square
transitions from a wall backer board to a tub, especially in corners. The
wedi Building Panel does not wick up water traversing the tub edge, and
it backs your wall tile right down to the edge of the tub. Besides these
special options, the installation follows the same process as in wedi Fundo
shower system wall assemblies.
When installing wedi Building Panel to tubs without the nailing
ange, please use wedi tub sealing tape to waterproof and secure
the transition seam at it’s backside.
