FAQs

The tapered edge allows joints to be filled and finished flush with the surface, resulting in a smoother, more seamless finish ideal for painting or wallpapering.
Can I use this plasterboard in wet areas like bathrooms?
No, this board is designed for dry internal spaces. For areas exposed to moisture, use a moisture-resistant plasterboard instead.
