Gypsum Board | Fire Resistant Plasterboard for Wall & Ceiling Systems
Gypsum board, also known as gypsum plasterboard or drywall sheet, is a lightweight construction panel made from a gypsum core covered with strong paper layers. It is widely used for interior partition walls, suspended ceilings and commercial building projects.
Available in standard, moisture resistant and fire resistant types, gypsum boards provide efficient solutions for modern drywall systems, renovation projects and interior construction applications.
What Is Gypsum Board?
Gypsum board is a building panel manufactured with a gypsum core sandwiched between reinforced paper facings.
The gypsum core provides fire resistance and dimensional stability, while the paper surface allows easy finishing through joint treatment, painting and decoration.
Gypsum plasterboard is one of the most commonly used materials for modern drywall construction because of its lightweight structure and efficient installation process.
