Gypsum industry news

Spain: Saint-Gobain Placo has announced the launch of 4PRO Active’Air, a laminated gypsum wallboard for use in ceilings. The company says that the product improves the air quality of rooms by absorbing pollutants with its Active’Air technology. The boards also have tapered edges for a join-free fit.

The producer said, “4PRO Activ'Air is presented as the most complete and efficient construction solution for the creation of continuous ceilings with a smooth and perfect finish, thanks to its fine edges, which increase the resistance between the joints and reduce the risk of cracks. In addition, it increases productivity thanks to its easy and fast installation, and offers great flexibility in construction, since it adapts to any type of project in the realisation of both regular and rounded shapes.”
