fermacell® gypsum fibre board is the perfect solution for your project. It’s simple to install, safe, reliable and fire resistant up to 60 minutes with a single layer.
The first gypsum fibre board rolled off the production line at the fermacell® plant in Germany in the early 1970s. Since then our high quality fibre board has fundamentally changed the drywall industry. This has laid the foundation for the success of the fermacell® brand.
Today, fermacell® gypsum fibre boards and the water and weather resistant Powerpanel® H2O boards offer time and cost savings in all areas of construction. Pioneering innovations have made fermacell® one of the best-known building material brands in the industry. As a result we are the European market leader for high-quality gypsum fibre and cement-bonded boards.
With fermacell fibre board you can easily cover everything from the floor to the roof. We have 3 main application areas:
- Timber Frame Projects
- Dry Lining
- Flooring
Timber Frame
Companies have been using fermacell® gypsum fibre board for over 40 years. It can be used universally as construction, fire protection and moisture-proof boards and is suitable for use in walls or ceilings.
For the majority of requirements a single-layer planking is completely sufficient. This is because the boards are particularly stable and resilient due to the special manufacturing process. We use recycled paper fibers which are pressed together with gypsum and water under high pressure. The processing of only one type of board with single-layer planking also makes the use of fermacell® gypsum fiber boards particularly economical.

Dry Lining
Dry construction has revolutionised interior finishing. Modern, high-performance systems offer almost unlimited possibilities for the creative design of interiors with variable floor plans. Dry construction walls can be placed anywhere in the room and easily moved as required. Due to the relatively low weight of drywall constructions, no major structural measures need to be taken to improve static strength.
fermacell® gypsum fibre boards offer a wealth of advantages compared to conventional dry construction systems. They facilitate the work on the construction site and ensure significant time and cost savings without having to make concessions in terms of quality or load-bearing capacity.
Flooring
fermacell® gypsum fibre dry screed elements are becoming more and more popular in new buildings, both for solid buildings and steel skeleton constructions as well as for wooden buildings. They can also be used when there are increased fire protection requirements. Due to their high load-bearing capacity, they are suitable for living areas, office and administration buildings. If you want solid flooring under your feet without the difficulties of a wet screed this is the perfect solution.
