GYPFOR Soundboard Plasterboard Tapered Edge
The GYPFOR Soundboard Plasterboard Tapered Edge is specially engineered to reduce noise transmission and improve acoustic comfort in both residential and commercial spaces. Available in 12.5mm and 15mm thicknesses, this board provides excellent sound insulation performance — the greater the mass, the better the soundproofing effect.
Manufactured from a high-density gypsum core with a smooth plasterboard facing, GYPFOR Soundboard effectively absorbs and dampens sound waves, making it ideal for internal walls and ceilings where sound control is essential. When used alongside other acoustic materials such as fibreglass or insulation batts, its performance is further enhanced, helping to create quieter, more comfortable interiors.
Designed with a tapered edge, it allows for easy jointing and finishing, ensuring a seamless, professional appearance. The board also meets Euroclass A2-s1,d0 – BS EN 520 fire rating standards, providing dependable safety alongside its soundproofing benefits.
