What should you pay attention to when buying gypsum board? Pay attention to these points to avoid pitfalls!

Gypsum board has become an indispensable product for interior decoration, especially for suspended ceilings, so we should pay more attention to the selection of gypsum board. Today, I will share with you what you need to pay attention to when purchasing gypsum board.

1. Different use spaces require different gypsum board materials. For example, the kitchen needs to choose fire-resistant and high-temperature resistant ones, the bathroom needs to choose moisture-proof and water-resistant ones, etc.

2. There are several points you must pay attention to when choosing gypsum board.

The quality inspection report must be read to ensure health, safety and quality; the surface must be checked to see if there is any dirt residue, whether the surface is flat, whether there are any scratches, etc.; the side must be checked to see if the thickness meets the standards, whether there are any breaks, adhesion, etc. in the cross section, as well as the color of the board core.

If it's gypsum board, check the adhesion between the paper backing and the core. Try to tear it apart with your hands. If the backing can be separated from the gypsum board, it means the adhesion is not in place. For example, gypsum board uses a high-purity gypsum board core and a high-strength backing paper. It has the advantages of high strength, light weight, no cracking, breathability, and strong nail holding capacity.

Different paper-faced gypsum boards also have unique functions. For example, if you pay more attention to environmental protection, you can choose 360° formaldehyde-free paper-faced gypsum board. Not only does the raw material contain no harmful substances such as formaldehyde, it can also actively absorb formaldehyde and help purify the air.

There are also reinforced gypsum board, moisture-resistant gypsum board, formaldehyde-free gypsum board, water-resistant/fire-resistant gypsum board, etc. You can choose according to your needs!
