12.5mm Standard Plasterboard Wallboard (Square Edge) 1.8m x 900mm - 1.62m2 per board

12.5mm Standard Plasterboard Wallboard is the standard, general-purpose board thickness for lining internal walls, partitions and ceilings, and this is the compact 1.8m x 900mm sheet. The smaller board size is the point here: it is easier to lift, carry and position than a full 2400mm x 1200mm sheet, which makes it well suited to ceilings, patch repairs, small rooms and spaces a large board will not fit into.

Each board measures 1800mm x 900mm and covers 1.62m². It is built around a non-combustible gypsum core bonded to an ivory paper face, which offers inherent fire resistance and takes a skim plaster finish or direct decoration. It fixes by screw to timber or metal stud frames, or by dot and dab adhesive directly to masonry, blockwork or brick, and cuts cleanly by the score-and-snap method.

The square edge is the feature to note. Rather than the tapered recess made for tape and jointing, a square edge butts board to board, which suits surfaces that will be skim plastered across the whole face, or given a textured finish or direct decoration where a jointed flush seam is not the priority. Paired with the smaller sheet, it is the board to use for skimmed repairs and small areas where a full board would be unwieldy.

12.5mm square edge plasterboard in this size suits ceilings, wall linings, small partitions, patching and overboarding, and should be installed in line with the manufacturer's guidance and your project specification. Its lighter, more manageable format makes handling easier for one person and in confined spaces. Where a job needs enhanced fire performance, acoustic insulation or moisture resistance, a specialist board is used instead.

Key Benefits of 12.5mm Square Edge Plasterboard (1.8m x 900mm):

  • 12.5mm gypsum plasterboard, the standard thickness for internal walls, partitions and ceilings.
  • Compact 1800mm x 900mm sheet, easier to lift, carry and manoeuvre than a full 2.4m x 1.2m board.
  • Covers 1.62m² per board.
  • Square edge suited to skim plastering, textured finishes or direct decoration across the full surface.
  • Non-combustible gypsum core offering inherent fire resistance.
  • Ivory paper face ready for a skim plaster finish, paint or a textured finish.
  • Screw-fixes to timber or metal stud frames, or bonds to masonry, blockwork or brick by dot and dab.
  • Cuts cleanly by the score-and-snap method.
  • Suited to ceilings, patching, small rooms and confined spaces where a full board will not fit.
  • Insulation UK own-brand board at competitive trade pricing, with bulk pricing available.

Good to know:

  • The compact board. At 1.8m x 900mm it is around half the size of a full 2.4m x 1.2m sheet, so it is easier to handle single-handed, overhead and in tight spaces; the trade-off is more joints over a large area.
  • Square edge, not tapered. For a flush, tape-and-jointed painted finish, choose a tapered edge board; this square edge board is made to be skimmed or textured over.
  • Handy for repairs. The smaller sheet suits patch repairs, small rooms and spaces a big board will not fit through, such as loft hatches, stairwells and doorways.
  • Not moisture resistant. For bathrooms, wet rooms or damp, unheated spaces, use a moisture-resistant board.
  • Not a rated fire board. Where a specified fire performance is required, use a fire-resistant board within a tested wall or ceiling system.
  • Store flat and dry. Keep boards flat, off the ground and out of the damp before fixing.

For ceilings, repairs and tight spaces where a full sheet is too much board, the 1.8m x 900mm 12.5mm square edge plasterboard keeps the job manageable while still giving the standard wall thickness and a skim-ready surface. If you need enhanced fire performance, acoustic insulation or moisture resistance, see our specialist plasterboard range, including acoustic plasterboard and fire-rated boards.
