FAQs
What is the difference between the 9.5mm and 12.5mm plasterboard options?
The 9.5mm board is lighter and easier to handle, making it ideal for ceilings or small projects. The 12.5mm option provides extra rigidity and sound insulation, making it better suited for walls or areas that require added durability.
Can GYPFOR plasterboard be used on both walls and ceilings?
Yes, GYPFOR Standard Plasterboard is suitable for both applications. It can be fixed to metal or timber frames, or bonded directly to surfaces using an appropriate adhesive system.
Does GYPFOR plasterboard offer fire protection?
Yes, it has a non-combustible gypsum core that provides a level of fire resistance. However, for projects requiring enhanced fire performance, a fire-rated plasterboard should be used instead.
