FIRESTOP BOARD

a gypsum plasterbvoard which contains glass fibres and additives to improve its fire resistance characteristics, the board is available with tapered or square edge edges. K-GYPS Firestop board is used in the construction of fire resistance partitions and suspended ceilings also in the fuireproof cladding of structural steelwork.

FIRE PROTECTION

Plasterboard system provide excellent fire resistance and are classified as a material of limited combustibility . When subjected to high temperatures the chrystaline structure of the plaster core gives off water which tends to make it self extinguishing. due to these factors plasterboards arev designated class o surface spread of flame
