GBOARD MR H2

OVERVIEW

Gboard® MR H2 is a moisture resistant board having a reasonable percentage, between 5 to 10 %, of water absorption. The silicon oil in its core acts as a water repellent rendering it more resistant to moisture. Gboard® MR H2 is the perfect suit for areas of high humidity.

Gboard® MR H2 is composed of the best quality gypsum, non-toxic minerals, and moisture repellent additives which suit health conditions. All materials are certified based on ASTM and EN standards and tested in approved laboratories.
