Gypsum plasterboard, often called drywall or wallboard, is a construction material. It has a gypsum core wrapped in paper or fiberglass. This core is made of calcium sulfate dihydrate, giving it strength and fire resistance. Additives boost its fire-resistant features. It is cost-effective and cuts labor costs due to easy installation. Its natural fire resistance enhances building safety. It also improves thermal insulation, benefiting energy efficiency. The board offers a smooth surface for finishes like paint or wallpaper. It’s versatile and can be used for curved surfaces and complex designs.

This shift boosts demand for eco-friendly materials, such as gypsum plasterboard. Manufacturers are adding more recycled content to gypsum boards. This change reduces the environmental impact of production. Gypsum is recyclable and has a low carbon footprint, making it great for green building projects. The rise of sustainable construction certifications drives market demand. Strict safety regulations worldwide increase the need for fire-resistant and moisture-resistant gypsum boards. Fire-rated gypsum boards are common in commercial buildings, hospitals, and schools for better fire safety. Similarly, moisture-resistant gypsum boards, known as green boards, are popular in humid areas like bathrooms and kitchens.
