Description
Boards are composed of a gypsum core encased in paper on the face side and a paperliner on the back
side. The face paper is folded around long edges to reinforce and protect the core. The ends are square
cut and finished smooth. The long edges are tapered on the face side to form a shallow channel for the
joint reinforcement.
Advantages Applications

Water Resistant
Boards are covered with a multi sheet cellulose, impregnated with silicone.
The core of the boards is also treated with silicone oil.
This treatment provides a high protection against water and moisture.
Properties
The main technical properties of water resistant gypsum boards are:
- Moisture absorption according to ASTM C 473/84 tests.
- Surface absorption less than 160 gm. after 2 hours.
- Immersion absorption less than 5% of the weight after two hours of
immersion.
Applications
The main application is for walls and partitions where there is a risk of
flooding, such as: Bathrooms, kitchens, gymnasiums, technical rooms,
basements, etc.

Fire Resistant
Those are the gypsum boards which have fibre glass incorporated in
their plaster cores thus achieving a greater fire resistance.
Properties & Applications
The longer fire resistance of those boards makes them specially adequate
for buildings where a special fire protection is required.
