REGULAR GYPSUM PLASTERBOARD - 12 MM

The Gypsemna’s REGULAR gypsum plasterboard 12.5 mm – RG TE 12.5 - is a factory produced 1.20 m wide gypsum board offering its high quality properties of non-combustibility and mechanical stability that makes it suitable for screw-fastening to drywall structures in steel as well as in wooden sections. It is encased in a heavy natural-finish ivory coloured strong linerpaper on the face side and a strong liner paper on the back side. The face paper is folded around the tapered long edges (on the face side only) to reinforce and protect the core and cross ends are square cut. The taper allows for concealing of joints by an appropriate joint treatment.

PROPERTIES AND USAGE: Gypsemna Regular Board is suitable for Drywall system in Dry, non humid areas. The gypsum core offers no support for combustion and temperature is kept under control until entirely calcinated. Regular gypsum plasterboard is associated with a volume loss resulting in cracks that will limit the fire-resistance of drywall systems. For prolongated measurable fire-resistance of tested drywall systems Gypsemna’s FireWall(FW), MoistureResistant Firewall(MRFW) and/or GlassMat(GM) External gypsum boards have to be used as per relevant technical data sheets
