Press Release by Eleuthera Design and Development Eleuthera
The Bahamas “Magnum Board® in the Bahamas”

As a company specializing in the design and project management of high end Custom Houses in the Out Islands of the Bahamas. The climate here is humid with some of the most challenging weather conditions and insect and termite infestations.

These same conditions led us to thoroughly investigate specifying a wallboard for both interior and exterior use – a board that was completely impervious to termites, mould, fire resistant and dimensionally stable under all conditions – we found the solution in Magnum Board® and have been using it and specifying it with great success for the past 3 years.

We find the Contractors have taken to it very well and the installation on all projects has been extremely smooth with great back up and warranty’s – the fact that it is roughly the same weight as plywood with a host of added advantages and comparable pricing has led to many improvements in the basic structural specifications for the Client.
