Our company was born from a creative spark in 2014 following a DIY bathroom project. The project turned out to be slow and frustrating, but ultimately a rewarding experience. As a result, we realized that we could source better, easier-to-use, and cheaper products than big box stores. Our primary focus has always been products related to shower and bathroom construction, such as Linear Shower Drains, Shower Niches, and various waterproofing products. How does Nova-Fiber work? Our product is made from a hydrophobic synthetic material, where the individual fibers are treated to repel water. Nevertheless, the fabric allows the liquid compound to fully penetrate and encapsulate it. In a typical shower installation, Nova-fiber greatly increases the tensile strength of the dried waterproofing compound, and reinforces corners and transitions between the backerboard and mortar bed. What makes Nova-Fiber different from other brands on the market? Having worked with the materials yourself and listening to our customers gives us an edge over our competitors. In short, we've learned what works well, and what doesn't. Some fabrics tend to be too thick, absorbing excessive amounts of waterproofing compound (which is very expensive) and swelling like a sponge. This makes them more difficult to work around sharp transitions, and can result in a lumpy and uneven surface. Other fabrics can be too stiff, resulting in the edges curling up and not staying put when wetted with the liquid compound. Fiberglass based fabrics have some benefits, however are very unpleasant to handle, and lose considerable strength if they are folded or creased. There are also surface applied sheet membranes (Kerdi etc.), they are not designed to work with liquid membranes at all, They are completely non-absorbent and will simply delaminate.
