Gypsum board

Plasterboard is a high-performance lightweight system for partition walls consisting of a steel frame covered with plasterboard on both sides and attached using self-drilling screws. When installing drywall panels, the joints are filled with gypsum jointing compounds.

Plasterboard is a popular choice for a number of factors. First, a variety of finishes can be used ranging from painting or fabric to vinyl or paper laminates. It also offers a creative way of designing interior surfaces as it provides a maximum degree of flexibility to realize your design ideas. Plasterboard is a cost-effective alternative to other products. Drywall panels are lightweight thus they can be installed quickly. Due to their intrinsic properties, the panels are durable and easy to repair if there ever is a problem. Moreover, fire resistance performance and sound attenuation makes plasterboard a primary choice in building fit-outs.

The degree of fire resistance and sound insulation of the building systems that use plasterboard depends on the type and thickness of the plasterboard inner layer, its combination with composite elements and the manner of application. The fire resistance and sound insulation tests conducted by independent laboratories have produced specific assessments for walls, partitions, floors and ceilings, shaft walls, stairs and walls that separate interior spaces as well as columns. In order to ensure maximum fire resistance and optimal acoustic attenuation, a double-layer installation is recommended as additional mass further reduces heat and sound transfer. Plasterboard can be installed on metal or wood using nails, screws or adhesives in combination with nails or screws. In most cases the method of fastening depends on the type of application.
