Choosing the Right Plasterboard for Your Project
When it comes to interior construction in Australia, plasterboard is a foundational element that cannot be overlooked. Also known as drywall or gypsum board, plasterboard plays a crucial role in creating the walls and ceilings of our homes, offices, and commercial spaces. It's the canvas upon which aesthetics, insulation, fire resistance, and acoustic performance are all crafted.
Whether you're planning a home renovation, a commercial build, or any interior project, making the right plasterboard choice is paramount. In this blog, we'll embark on a journey through the world of plasterboard selections in Australia. From the basics of standard plasterboard to the specialized options catering to unique project needs, we'll provide you with the knowledge you need to make informed decisions. So, let's dive in and explore the plasterboard landscape in Australia, ensuring that your next project is built on a solid foundation.
Standard Plasterboard
Let's start with the most common type of plasterboard used in Australia: standard plasterboard. Comprising a gypsum core encased in paper liners, it's available in various thicknesses, typically ranging from 10mm to 13mm. Standard plasterboard is your go-to option for most interior wall and ceiling applications. It's cost-effective, readily available, and serves as the workhorse of the construction industry. We stock full range of Gyprock Standard 10mm Plasterboard and Standard 13mm Plasterboard.
Moisture-Resistant Plasterboard
In spaces prone to moisture, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and laundries, standard plasterboard might not be suitable. That's where moisture-resistant plasterboard, often referred to as green board, comes into play. This variant features a core designed to resist water damage and special paper liners that discourage mold and mildew growth. For long-lasting performance, it's essential to pair moisture-resistant plasterboard with compatible jointing compounds and tape. Check out Gyprock 10mm Aquachek and 13mm Aquachek for more product details.
Fire-Resistant Plasterboard
In many commercial and multi-residential buildings, fire safety regulations demand the use of fire-resistant plasterboard. These boards come with various fire ratings, such as 30-minute (FRL30), 60-minute (FRL60), and 90-minute (FRL90), indicating their ability to withstand fire. Installing fire-resistant plasterboard helps contain fires, providing precious time for evacuation and minimizing property damage. CSR Redbook is good source to check for various tested system to suit your fire rating requirements. CSR Gyprock 13mm and 16mm Fyrchek is an ideal choice for fire rating wall and ceiling construction.
Sound Resistant Plasterboard
If your project requires noise control, soundproof plasterboard should be on your radar. Designed to reduce sound transmission between rooms, it's perfect for spaces like home theaters, bedrooms, and offices. Sound resistant plasterboard usually boasts a denser core and may incorporate additional acoustic insulation materials for superior noise reduction. Gyprock Soundchek along with acoustic insulation would be an ideal solution to suit the acoustic design.
Impact Resistant Plasterboard
In high-traffic areas like schools, hospitals, and commercial spaces, impact-resistant plasterboard shines. This type of board features a reinforced core that enhances its durability and resistance to damage from impacts. It's a go-to choice for corridors, classrooms, and areas where accidental damage is more likely to occur.
Specialty Plasterboard
Australia offers a range of specialty plasterboard products to cater to unique project requirements. Some noteworthy examples include:
- Curved Plasterboard: Gyprock 6.5mm Flexiboard Ideal for creating arched or curved walls, adding architectural flair to your project.

This enables it to resist fire and make it ideal for use as a part of a fire rated wall or ceiling system. These panels also offer exceptional acoustic insulation properties and are used in Gyprock commercial wall and ceiling systems which are a high fire rating or high acoustic performance is specified. New Shaft Liner MP panel is manufactured with a powerful but gentle anti-fungal agent that permeates the plasterboard core, as well as the face and back paper of the board, providing enhanced protection against the possibility of mould growth during the early stages of construction.
