Product Description

Gyprock Fyrchek MR combines a fire and acoustic grade board with additional moisture resistance to create the ideal lining for fire rated wall and ceiling systems in wet areas.

Fyrchek MR’s glass fibre-reinforced core enables it to maintain structural integrity when subjected to direct flame. The additional moisture resistant properties make it an ideal board for use as part of a fire rated wall or ceiling system in wet areas or application subjected to high humidity.

This plasterboard is also an acoustic grade board and can be used in systems where acoustic separation is specified.

Gyprock Fyrchek MR can be easily identified by its blue coloured face paper.

Typical Applications

Fyrchek MR  is predominantly specified for commercial installations in areas where there is a higher level of fire and moisture resistance.

It is primarily intended for walls and ceilings in wet area rooms, soffits and external eaves that must achieve fire resistance.

    Introduction

    Among the various safety measures, fire protection stands out as a critical area. This is where Gyprock's fire-rated wall and ceiling systems come into the picture. Designed to enhance the fire resistance of buildings, these systems are essential for both commercial and residential constructions.

    What is fire resistant plasterboard?

    Fire-resistant plasterboard, often referred to as fire-rated or fireproof plasterboard, is a specialized type of drywall designed to resist the spread of fire. Unlike standard plasterboard, which is made primarily of gypsum sandwiched between layers of paper, fire-resistant plasterboard includes materials that enhance its ability to withstand high temperatures.

    What is Gyprock Fyrchek?

    Gyprock Fyrchek is a specially formulated plasterboard designed for use in fire and acoustic wall and ceiling systems. Known for its pink face paper, this plasterboard incorporates a fire-resistant gypsum core reinforced with glass fibres and other additives to enhance its fire-retardant properties. It's an ideal choice for areas requiring increased fire protection, such as inter-tenancy walls, shafts, and public spaces in commercial and multi-residential buildings.

    1. Material Composition: Made from gypsum, a naturally fire-resistant material. Gyprock products are engineered to resist high temperatures.

    2. Tested Fire Rated Systems: These systems come with various fire resistance levels, suitable for different building requirements.

    3. Compatibility: They are compatible with a range of building designs, ensuring that safety doesn't compromise aesthetics.

    • Public Facilities: Hospitals, schools, and other public buildings use these systems for enhanced safety.

    Installation and Maintenance

    While CSR Gyprock systems are designed for easy installation, it's crucial to have them installed by professionals. Proper installation ensures that the fire-rated systems function as intended. Maintenance is relatively straightforward, requiring regular inspections to ensure integrity and performance.
