Why this product works
Product details & specifications
Designer Plants' Cement Sheet & Blueboard Green Wall Screws are 20mm self-drilling fixings with a wide Phillips head — purpose-designed to mount artificial green wall panels onto cement sheet, blueboard, and fibre-cement substrates without pre-drilling. The Class 3 corrosion-resistant coating provides long-term durability across protected outdoor and humid interior fit-outs.
The wide head profile distributes load across the panel mesh — preventing pull-through under panel weight while delivering a clean, professional finish. The self-drilling tip cuts directly into fibre-cement substrate and grips quickly for a secure hold; pre-drilling is not required for standard cement sheet and blueboard thicknesses.
A 20-piece pack of self-drilling, Class 3 corrosion-resistant 20mm screws — engineered for fixing Designer Plants green wall panels to cement sheet, blueboard, and similar fibre-cement substrates.

Where It Is Used
The substrate-appropriate fixing for any green wall installation onto fibre-cement sheeting, blueboard, or rendered cement substrates.
Cement sheet and blueboard substrates. The primary application — direct fixing without the masonry plugs required for full brick or concrete walls.
Trim and accessory fixing. Securing edge trims, top channels, and decorative accessories to the green wall panel finish.
Indoor and protected outdoor fit-outs. Class 3 coating provides corrosion resistance for humid bathroom installations, alfresco areas, and shaded courtyard positions.
Commercial and trade installations. Volume fit-outs by green wall installers, landscape contractors, and commercial fit-out trades — supplied in a pack size matched to typical panel-run requirements.
Installation
Pre-mark fixing points based on the panel layout — approximately one screw per 25cm of panel edge, with additional points across the panel face for larger formats. Drive screws perpendicular to the substrate using a Phillips driver. Do not overtighten — the wide head should sit firm against the panel backing without crushing the foliage or compressing the fibre-cement substrate. The self-drilling tip eliminates pre-drilling for standard cement sheet and blueboard thicknesses.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many screws are needed per green wall panel?
Approximately 1 screw per 25 cm of panel section — for a standard 1m × 1m panel, this works out to approximately 8–10 fixings depending on panel layout and edge density. The 20-piece pack covers approximately 2 standard panels.
What substrates are these screws designed for?
Cement sheet, blueboard, and fibre-cement substrates. For timber, plaster, MDF, or composite substrates, the Bulk Screw, Washer & Plug Kit (Timber, Drywall and Plaster) is the appropriate fixing.
Is pre-drilling required?
No. The self-drilling tip is engineered to cut directly into standard cement sheet and blueboard thicknesses without pre-drilling. For unusually thick or dense fibre-cement substrates, pilot drilling can reduce installation effort.
How long will the Class 3 coating last in outdoor conditions?
Class 3 corrosion-resistant coating is engineered for protected outdoor and humid interior positions. For fully exposed outdoor installations subject to direct rainfall and salt-air exposure, fully galvanised or stainless-steel fixings are recommended — contact 1800 617 341 for higher-grade fixing options.
Can these screws be used to install other panel types?
Yes — any panel that mounts onto cement sheet or blueboard with a wide-head fixing is compatible. The Class 3 coating and self-drilling design also suit signage, trim, and accessory mounting on the same substrate.
