Moisture Resistance Sound Protect

Gypsemna Moisture Resistant Sound Protect is used in interior wall and ceiling systems where enhanced moisture resistance, acoustic performance, and fire resistance is required. It is an ideal solution for wet areas such as bathrooms, kitchens, and laundries, and is suitable for use as a substrate for ceramic tiles. The board is suitable for both new construction and renovation projects with steel framing. It is typically screw-fixed to steel studs spaced at a maximum of 600 mm and can also be applied by lamination or using approved adhesive systems.

Overview

Gypsemna Moisture Resistant Sound Protect (MRSP - 12.5mm) is an interior gypsum board consisting of a solidset, moisture- and sound-resistant Type X gypsum core, enclosed in green-coloured face paper and a strong liner back paper. The board provides combined moisture resistance, acoustic performance, and fire protection when used in tested wall and ceiling assemblies. The long edges are slightly tapered to allow joints to be reinforced and concealed with joint tape and joint compound. Both the face and back papers are 100% recyclable.
