Overview 12.5mm
The Gypsemna’s TUFF (TF - 12.5mm) Type X Gypsum Board is an interior gypsum board consisting of a solid set, fire- resistive, Type X gypsum core enclosed in YELLOW-coloured face paper and a strong liner back paper. It also has a specially formulated core to provide high impact, abuse, sound block and fire-resistance ratings board that can protect those high-traffic areas where interior damage is likely to occur. The face paper and the back paper are 100 percent recycled.
