The board offers sound insulation as well as being soundproofed further for a more quiet and peaceful environment. The UBS board allows for heat to be insulated in a room, thus, allowing for cost-effective energy savings.
Gyproc Wall Finish
DESCRIPTION: Gyproc Wall Finish is a white, gypsum-based super fine finishing plaster suitable for skim coating applications of 1 – 3 mm thick onto interior walls and ceilings. It has an extra lightweight, but meaty consistency that ensures good workability and improves coverage on cement-rendered, concrete, or drywall surfaces. It also conceals hair-line cracks to produce durable, perfectly smooth, and flawless surfaces ready for final painting and decoration.
USES: Gyproc® Wall Finish is a specially formulated skim coat plaster to the re-finish the rough surface of concrete walls/ceilings which are pre-plastered by conventional masonry (sand-cement) works or to finish the surface of pre-fabricated walls/slabs. It is suitable for interior finishing where surfaces are free from water and away from high humidity conditions. For excellent paint adhesion, it is recommended to apply solvent-based primer before top paints.
BENEFITS:
- Provides an extra-smooth finishing solution.
- It provides an excellent paint adhesion.
- Its finishing is free from cracks due to minimizing shrinkage.
Gyproc Regular
DESCRIPTION: Gyproc Regular consists of an aerated gypsum core, firmly bonded to strong paper liners, suitable for drylining internal surfaces. Plasterboard linings provide good fire protection owing to the unique behavior of the non-combustible gypsum core when subjected to high temperatures and come in two thicknesses 9.0mm and 12.5mm with a size of 1.2m * 2.4m.
USES:
- Suitable for most system applications where normal fire, structural and acoustic levels are specified.
- For ceiling and partition work.
- It can be finished using Gyproc Fibre Tape or Gyproc Paper Tape and Gyproc Jointing Compound.
BENEFITS:

USES: Used in Gyproc partition, wall lining, and ceiling systems to give increased fire protection. Also used for protection against structural steel.
BENEFITS: Gyproc fire-resistant plasterboard linings provide good fire protection owing to the unique behavior of the non-combustible gypsum core when subjected to high temperatures. The inclusion of glass fiber and other additives in the core of Gyproc fire-resistant improves its fire-protective properties when compared with standard plasterboard. Also used for protection against structural steel. Eg. Kitchens.
