Gboar ContraSag RG is a lightweight and hard-edged 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 ï¬?berglass and special additives. Gboard�® Gboard�® ContraSag is available in two different types: Regular and Moisture resistant. Gboard�® ContraSag RG has an ivory paper face and Gboard�® ContraSag MR has a green paper face. By using Gboard�® ContraSag, 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
Advantages
Gboard�® ContraSag RG is extremely lightweight, therefore it is exceptionnaly easy to handle when fixing it on suspended ceiling framing systems
The large spacing between the furring channels results in using less metal frames leading to cost reduction
Surface Finishing
Multiple finishing options: Painted (Water or oil bas paint)
Wallpaper, vinyl,wood
Joint fillingWith Gcoat All Purpose Joint Compound
Edge Types
Squared edge
Tapered Edge

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.
