HydroBlok Brings HB ONE | Backer CI™ to NAHB International Builders Show 2026
ORLANDO, FL. At IBS 2026, HydroBlok will be exhibiting (Booth W4167) to showcase the next evolution of exterior wall simplification: HB ONE | Backer CI™, an integrated 4-in-1 wall system designed for stucco and stone veneer applications
Built around rethinking the wall from the installer’s point of view, HydroBlok invites attendees to stop by for a hands-on look at a system designed to reduce steps, simplify sequencing between crews, and deliver greater job-site predictability and performance to the exterior envelope without adding complexity to the jobsite conversation.
At the booth, HydroBlok will demonstrate why HB ONE | Backer CI™ is being positioned as “The Wall That Knows How™” because it consolidates what is traditionally a multi-layer, multi-trade assembly into a more streamlined approach. HB ONE | Backer CI™ integrates key wall functions, waterproofing, continuous insulation, lath, and scratch into a single panel, helping teams reduce layers that often create scheduling friction and coordination risk in an already-constrained labor market.
HB ONE | Backer CI™ is engineered as a true 4-in-1 system combining the secondary WRB, insulation, lath, and scratch coat into one high-performance wall system designed to make stucco and stone installation easier, more efficient, and more repeatable in the field.
As one builder put it: “This is the NICEST stucco finish I have ever seen on any build and I've been a custom builder for 30 years. I'm switching all of my homes to HydroBlok."
HydroBlok also notes a new chapter for HB ONE | Backer CI™ since last year: the product is now made in the USA (Utah), supporting tighter control over quality and consistency and continued refinement to the product and process behind it.
