What should you pay attention to when buying plasterboard? Keep these points in mind to avoid making a mistake!

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

1. Different spaces require different gypsum board materials. For example, kitchens need fire-resistant and high-temperature-resistant materials, while bathrooms require moisture-proof and water-resistant materials, and so on.

2. There are several key points to consider when choosing plasterboard.

The quality inspection report is a must-read, as it guarantees health, safety, and quality; the surface must be inspected to check for any residue, unevenness, scratches, or other issues; the sides must be inspected to check if the thickness meets standards, whether there are any cracks or adhesion problems in the cross-section, and the color of the core board, etc.

For paper-faced gypsum board, check the adhesion between the facing paper and the core. Try tearing it by hand; if the facing paper can be separated from the gypsum board, the adhesion is not good. For example, paper-faced gypsum board uses a high-purity gypsum board core and a high-strength facing paper, which has advantages such as high strength, light weight, no cracking, breathability, and strong nail holding power.

Moreover, different types of paper-faced gypsum board have unique functions. For example, those who pay more attention to environmental protection can choose 360° formaldehyde-removing paper-faced gypsum board, which not only does not contain formaldehyde and other harmful substances in its raw materials, but also actively absorbs formaldehyde to help purify the air.

In addition, there are reinforced paper-faced gypsum board, moisture-resistant paper-faced gypsum board, formaldehyde-free paper-faced gypsum board, water-resistant/fire-resistant paper-faced gypsum board, etc. You can choose according to your needs!
