English term or phrase: concrete backer board

Overboarding with a concrete backer board like no more ply strengthens your floor to reduce the movement and so prevents flexibility in the floor from cracking ...

What is this called in French? As a supplementary, non-translation question: can you get it in France?

I have also seen this called "cement backer board".

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks Florence. I think "armée" might be critical here. The product in Robin's reference is definitely wrong. Concrete or cement backer board is sufficiently shock and load resistant to be used as a base for floor tiles and the aquapanel is not.
