Modern applications of drywall in the apartment

Due to its capabilities, gypsum board is very popular among other building and finishing materials. It is successfully used in the decoration of various rooms.

I would like to pay special attention to the fact that drywall has found its application in a variety of bold design projects. The fanciful, winding multi-level ceilings made from it amaze with its beauty.

Especially if each level will have its own color and backlight, which is easily mounted. In addition to multilevel gypsum plasterboard ceilings, arches of various configurations, interior partitions, niches, etc. are made. Therefore, if you want to realize your bold design decisions, then the use of drywall is the best suited for you to create a beautiful and elegant design.

According to its technical characteristics, it is divided into the following types, namely: fire-resistant drywall (the fiberglass contained in it helps to withstand high temperatures); moisture resistant drywall (ideal for rooms where humidity is more than 70%); standard drywall (used for rooms with normal humidity).

1. uses natural raw materials in the production process, so drywall is considered an environmentally friendly material. Plasterboard designs allow you to create a healthy indoor microclimate;
2. It has sufficient strength, which allows it to be used to create interior partitions;
3. it can be bent, thanks to this it is used to create arches, openings of an unusual shape;
4. the installation of gypsum plaster is quick enough, the process does not contain “wet procedures” (plaster, etc.);
5. possesses high thermal insulation and sound insulation;
6. does not support fire, is not toxic, is not radioactive;
7. relatively low cost;
8. long term of operation.

It is very easy to work with this material, the only thing is that all work must be carried out at a temperature of at least 15 degrees Celsius. As we said above, the possibilities of using drywall are quite diverse. This is the traditional decoration of walls and ceilings, where there are no curved lines. Making new and replacing old partitions, especially when renovating old houses. Their production requires very little time, and there is practically no construction waste. The surface of the walls, ceiling, which are aligned with drywall, do not need to be plastered. It is enough to apply one coat of putty. After that, they are ready for decorative decoration, for these purposes you can use: wallpaper of various textures; decorative panels; films; decorative plasters; facing tile, which is glued with various adhesives; enamels and paints, both glue, dispersion, oil, and water emulsion. But this is not the whole list of decorative finishes. Its list can be expanded.
