What Are Gypsum Partitions And Specialized Gypsum Panels That Are Widely Used In Homes And Offices Because Of Their Easy Installation, Lightweight Structure?

Gypsum Partitions are widely used in homes and offices because of their easy installation, lightweight structure, and fire-resistant and soundproof properties. They are also an affordable alternative to fresh construction and provide the perfect solution for reducing weight, noise and temperature in your home.

The Gypsum Partition boards are manufactured by mixing plaster of paris with other materials such as paper and glass fiber, plasticizers, foaming agents, EDTA or starch as retarders, wax emulsion or silanes for less water absorption, and finely ground gypsum crystal for accelerator. The board is then sandwiched between two layers of heavy paper or fiberglass mats and cured in a drying chamber.

In most commercial, residential and institutional buildings, drywall is installed on the exterior walls and ceilings in both new construction and remodeling projects. This drywall type can be painted or suitable wallpaper is applied to it in order to give an aesthetic appeal to the interior.

Depending on the application, it can be a single layer wall system or a double-layer one. Usually, the thickness is 1/2 or 5/8 of an inch. The thicker variant is ideal for soundproofing and fire protection.
