Siniat GTEC Standard Board is a general purpose plasterboard used across thousands of domestic and commercial projects every year. It goes up on partition walls, wall linings and ceilings, and it does the job reliably and consistently. The board is made from a gypsum core wrapped in recycled paper liners, ivory on the front and grey on the back, and it is designed to be skimmed with a finish coat of gypsum plaster.

This is the 12.5mm square edge version in the full 2400 x 1200mm sheet size — the 8x4 is the most common board size in domestic and commercial drylining, and this square edge version is the one to go for when the boards are going to be plastered over. Both long edges are square cut, which means there is no taper running along the edge. The plaster goes on flat and consistent right across the board and the joint between boards, giving the plasterer a clean surface to work with from start to finish.

The board achieves a Euroclass A2-s1, d0 fire rating, meaning it has limited combustibility, produces very little smoke and generates no burning droplets in a fire situation. It scores and snaps cleanly without power tools and takes screws well into timber or metal studwork.
