What are plasterboard sheets used for?
Plasterboard sheets are calcium sulphate dihydrate (gypsum) panels used to make interior walls and ceilings, otherwise known as drywall. They’re attached directly to the framing of walls and ceilings using drywall screws. Plasterboard offers a huge improvement on the traditional lath and plaster process, with modern plasterboard sheets meeting several building regulatory standards.
Here at Selco you’ll find a full range of standard tapered edge plasterboard and square edge plasterboard, as well as sheets with specific built-in properties, fully stocked and ready to help you get on with your latest plastering project.
What are the benefits of using plasterboard?
Plasterboard is lightweight, easy to use and install, and highly versatile - flexible and thin plasterboard sheets can be used to create key features like curved walls. Depending on the sheet’s properties, it can also meet many key building regulations for both commercial and residential spaces, offering fire, acoustic, damp, and thermal efficiencies. From a decorative standpoint, it also provides a smooth finish ready for the surface to be painted or decorated in whichever way your customer prefers.
What types of plasterboard sheets do we have available?
Fire-resistant plasterboard
If you’re looking for fire-resistant plasterboard, we’ve got a selection of fire boards available from Siniat and Promat in varying thicknesses depending on the job requirements. You can choose the standard 12.5mm sheets or go for the 15mm tapered-edge plasterboard – ideal for stud partitions, wall lining and ceiling systems.
Acoustic plasterboard
For soundproof plasterboard needs, the Siniat dB plasterboard provides up to 49db sound insulation and can be installed in walls and ceilings to keep disturbances to a minimum. Stronger and denser than standard boards, this sound insulation plasterboard acts as an effective sound deterrent, even when applied in single-layer partition systems.
Moisture-resistant plasterboard
If you’re looking for a utility room, kitchen or bathroom plasterboard that offers great humidity protection, we’ve got moisture-resistant plasterboard such as the Siniat Moisture Board, which is one of the leading water-resistant plasterboard options out there. For something even closer to a fully waterproof plasterboard, Aqua Board provides not only a barrier for water, but also added protection against fungal damage.
Insulated plasterboard
For better thermal efficiency, we’ve got plenty of thermal plasterboards to get the job done - these standard plasterboard sheets have insulation bonded to them to improve thermal efficiency. Available in up to 50mm thickness and offering higher thermal resistance compared to standard plasterboards, Siniat’s insulated plasterboards such as the Thermal PIR Tapered Edge Plasterboard effectively improves the insulation performance of regular walls.
