Wall Building Panels
Product information
wedi Building Panels are needed for the shower walls. They are the ultimate versatile wet room tile backer board, and often used within the range of wedi shower systems and walls, floors, countertops, and many more applications.
wedi Building Panels can be applied to shower walls and wet areas horizontally or vertically. This allows more flexibility with your wedi panel installation. The panels are fastened quickly and easily in place using wedi screws & washers. The wedi Building Panel combines a tile backer board and waterproofing into one step–providing a safe system installation. Once the panels are secured and seams/fasteners sealed with wedi Joint Sealant, tiling can begin immediately as soon as the sealant dries to the touch. This saves considerable time and money compared to traditional methods. Its solid waterproof core eliminates concerns like pinholes/voids as well as delamination typically associated with alternative waterproofing products.wedi Building Panel has set the premium standard level for foam core tile backer boards because it is not only inherently waterproof and lightweight, but it also provides a perfect bond surface for tile setting and is a strong backing for the tile. When installing wedi Building Panel it cuts cleanly and exact. Seams, transitions and fastener locations are prepared in safe and waterproof manner and without creating build up to ensure a great tiling experiemnce and result.
The wedi Building Panel has been successfully tested under ANSI 118.10 (test standard for load-bearing, bonded, waterproof membranes) as well as ASTM C578 ( Standard Specification for Rigid, Cellular Polystyrene Insulation).
wedi Building panels are:
- For Shower, Tub & Wet Room Walls and Ceilings
- Ready for tiling upon installation

Product Sizes
To determine the size and quantity of wedi Building Panels you will need for your shower, please follow the steps outlined below:
First, you must calculate the total area of the shower walls. To do this, measure the area of each shower wall by multiplying the length of the wall by the height. The height of each wall will be determined based on how high you plan to install the tile. Next, add the calculated square footage of each wall together to determine the combined sum of all the shower walls. Account for about 15% extra square feet of building panel for any waste cuts by multiplying the combined area of all shower walls by 1.15.
Next, divide the total area of the shower walls by the square foot area of the wedi building panels you plan to use (eg: 4×5 ft. building panel = 20 square feet). A total shower wall area of 115 square feet divided by 20 square feet per building panel gives us a total of 5.75 building panels. Remember to always round up to the next whole building panel.
