Fermacell is a high performance multi-purpose building board that combines the properties of solid blockwork with the speed and flexibility of conventional drywall techniques. The unique nature of the 12.5 mm Fermacell board offers a drylining solution that combines high levels of fire resistance, acoustic insulation and impact strength with inherent moisture resistance and exceptional screw holding ability.
Fermacell building board is produced by combining raw gypsum, cellulose fibres derived from recycled paper and recycled water. These materials are combined, to form a homogenous mass, which is then formed into a dense sheet material.
Characteristics
- Manufactured from recycled material
- Quick installation
- Easy to cut with conventional woodworking tools
- Fire resistant

Application
As well as for standard wall applications – Fermacell boards can be used on flooring and ceiling projects. Cut with conventional woodworking tools; generally, carbide-tipped tools should be used when cutting to size. Distance between support frame/studs for walls 650mm and, for ceiling 437mm. Final Finish – Trowel-applied FST, painted, plastered or tiled surfaces.
