Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum

Build Smarter, Build Stronger: Embrace the Versatility of Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum

At Ottawa Commercial Drywall, we believe in pushing the boundaries of traditional construction with innovative solutions. Enter the world of Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG). This groundbreaking substance elegantly combines drywall’s versatility with fibreglass’ strength and resilience. Whether you seek superior fire protection, enhanced impact resistance, or lighter and more durable walls and ceilings, it offers a robust value proposition for your upcoming project.

Beyond Drywall, Beyond Expectations

Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum isn’t your average drywall. It comes in two primary variants:

  • GYPSUM BOARDS WITH EMBEDDED GLASS FIBRES

Gypsum boards with embedded glass fibres are prefabricated panels that offer consistent strength and are ideal for walls, ceilings, and partitions.

  • SPRAY-APPLIED GLASS FIBRE REINFORCED GYPSUM

Spray-applied glass fibre reinforced gypsum allows for custom shapes and seamless integration; perfect for complex curves and challenging applications.

Unveiling the Varied Advantages of Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum

Glass Fibre Reinforced Gypsum boasts a unique set of benefits:

  • LIGHTWEIGHT

Being significantly lighter than traditional drywall, GFRG reduces structural load and simplifies installation.

  • FIRE-RESISTANT

Fire-resistant GFRG offers superior fire resistance, exceeding the performance of standard drywall and enhancing building safety.

  • IMPACT-RESISTANT

Impact-resistant GFRG withstands impacts better than drywall; it is ideal for healthcare facilities, high-traffic areas, and educational institutions.

  • MOISTURE-RESISTANT

Certain GFRG formulations offer improved moisture resistance for bathrooms, kitchens, and basements.

  • VERSATILITY UNBOUND

GFRG effortlessly adapts to various applications, from curved ceilings to intricate mouldings, expanding your design possibilities.

Considerations for Informed Choices

Before embarking on your GFRG journey, keep in mind:

  • FIRE RATING

Choose fire-resistant GFRG to meet your building’s specific fire safety requirements.

  • IMPACT RESISTANCE

Assess the required level of impact resistance of your chosen GFRG based on your space’s usage.

  • MOISTURE EXPOSURE

Select moisture-resistant GFRG to prevent water damage.

Expert Installation is Vital
