Glass Mat

Gypsemna Glass Mat is used for both exterior and interior wall applications, as well as tile backer boards in wet areas and ceilings. In exterior walls and soffit applications, the board is installed as an external sheathing layer, providing a water-resistant underlayment suitable for various façade finishes. These systems are engineered to withstand exposure to wind, rain, snow, and extreme temperatures over extended service periods. The board also features a fiberglass mesh embedded in the core for added strength and durability.
