Gboard�® ContraSag MR is a lightweight and hard-edged, moisture resistant plasterboard with enhanced sag resistant properties. It is mainly used for interior ceiling applications. The core of the board consists of a special combination of non-combustible gypsum, reinforced with fiberglass, silicon oil and special additives. The oil in the core acts as a water repellent rendering it more resistant to moisture. Gboard ContraSag MR has a green paper face. By using Gboard ContraSag MR, material costs are greatly reduced mainly because of the lower number of metal frames required for installation (for the same application area compared with regular types of gypsum boards). To achieve the same structural integrity as other gypsum board suspended ceiling systems, the required thickness of the metal frames is also reduced. Gboard ContraSag MR eliminates the cost of moisture resistance treatments.
Advantages
Gboard ContraSag MR is enhanced with special additives to repel moisture and resist sagging
It is highly recommended in areas exposed to moisture
The large spacing between the furring channels results in using less metal frames leading to cost reduction.
