Gyproc thermaLine BASIC wallboard tapered edge - 30mm

British Gypsum Gyproc ThermaLine Basic Plasterboard Tapered Edge (Enhanced thermal performance)

Gypsum plasterboard bonded to an expanded polystyrene foam insulate for a basic level of thermal insulation.
Gyproc WallBoard is factory-bonded to an expanded polystyrene insulant that is both CFC and HCFC-free, meaning zero ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential), and less than 5 GWP (Global Warming Potential). Designed to be used in both refurbishment and new build for walls, ceilings and reveals where a basic level of thermal insulation is required to reduce heat loss from buildings.

Product description
Gyproc WallBoard factory-bonded to an expanded polystyrene insulant that is both CFC and HCFC-free -  meaning zero ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential). Gyproc ThermaLine basic consists of an aerated gypsum core encased  in, and firmly bonded to, strong paper liners. The expanded polystyrene insulant is then further bonded to the  finished plasterboard. Gyproc ThermaLine basic is a plasterboard that is suitable for drylining internal surfaces. This plasterboard is one of the products within our plasterboard range that is certified to BES 6001 achieving a  rating of ‘Excellent’.

Board performance
Fire protection
Plasterboard linings provide good fire protection owing to the unique behaviour of the non-combustible gypsum core when subjected to high temperatures. For the purposes of Building Regulations Approved Document B, plasterboard is designated  a ‘material of limited combustibility’. The surfaces of  Gyproc ThermaLine basic are designated Class 0 (for the purposes of the Building Regulations). Please refer to the table below.

Fire resistance / Sound insulation
Please refer to the appropriate White Book section for  information on the fire resistance and sound insulation of  building elements lined with Gyproc ThermaLine basic,  available to download from british-gypsum.com

Effect of condensation
The thermal insulation and ventilation requirements of  the Building Regulations aim to reduce the risk of  condensation and mould growth in new buildings.  However, designers should take care to eliminate all  possibility of problems caused by condensation,  particularly in refurbishment projects.

BASIC
 Gyproc ThermaLine BASIC provides a base level improvement in thermal insulation, which is ideal when used in combination with other insulation measures or where modest upgrades are required.

Why laminates?
Laminates are the perfect way to enhance the thermal performance of a wall. Whether designed into buildings from the outset or retro-fitted in to older buildings, they provide an easy way to help comply with Building Regulations. They can also contribute towards credits in the Code for Sustainable Homes, to improve the sustainability of new housing.

Design benefits
-With the insulation as close to the internal surface as possible, Gyproc ThermaLine laminates provide a rapid response to intermittent heating, creating more comfortable living spaces for occupants.
- The integral vapour control layer in Gyproc ThermaLine PLUS and SUPER reduce the risk of condensation.
-Gyproc ThermaLine laminates can eliminate cold bridging when installed continuously over framing members or joists.
-They can be used to provide additional insulation in the roof and are used for room-in-the-roof applications.

Installation benefits
 - Gyproc ThermaLine laminates are relatively lightweight boards.
 - They provide internal drylining and insulation in just one fixing operation, giving faster completion times.
 - They also provide an ideal surface for plaster skimming or jointing.

British Gypsum systems
Gyproc ThermaLine laminates can be used as part of British Gypsum approved construction details, which includes DriLyner TL, GypLyner UNIVERSAL and GypLyner IWL. Two new documents which provide further detailed information, include HomeSpec 5, designed to help specify new-build solutions, and the Guide to improving thermal insulation, which is ideal for refurbishment and conversion activity.
