Gypsum Board Ceiling System and LED Lighting for It


Gypsum board system is often known as drywall, plasterboard or gypsum wallboard. Gypsum board panel system completely differs from other types of material such as fiberboard, hardwood and plywood. Due to non-combustible core and paper facers of gypsum board, they are more popular where fire resistance is required.

Plaster board/Gypsum board ceiling system is typically used due to the cost effectiveness, easy to install and aesthetically pleasant finish. Gypsum board is generally screwed into timber or steel frames forming the shape of the ceiling system. One of the key benefits of the plasterboard ceiling is the ability to conceal the wirings and services above the ceiling, while allowing adequate space to install insulation materials in the ceiling attics.
