It's pretty much a water resistant plasterboard.
What have you got up making the walls now? Surely you can't just have 3mm hardboard on its own?

Took out scabby old shower in recess. Originally had formica panelling. When took these off, found 1 side was sheeted in hardboard, 1 side in plasterboard, and 1 in ply!!
Original job by Bodgitt and Leggitt, I think.

You could use Aquapanel http://www.knaufdrywall.co.uk/aquapanel/, Wedi board http://www.wedi.co.uk/home.htm or WPB plywood (probably about the cheapest), which should then be tanked. Look at the Dunlop Shower Tanking Kit, http://www.building-adhesives.com/dunlop/products/showerkit.aspwhich is about £30 and has tanking tape and a tub of the sealant, with enough to do a '3 sided' shower.
