CHOOSE THE RIGHT GYPSUM BOARD FOR YOUR NEEDS
13 October 2026
Building or renovating a home, villa, or other building in Bali? Before purchasing gypsum boards for ceilings or partitions, it's important to understand their types and functions. Each type of gypsum has different characteristics that should be matched to the needs of your space.
To help you make the right choice, let's explore several types of gypsum boards you can consider!
1. Standard Gypsum for Ceilings and Partitions
Standard gypsum is a popular choice for interior applications. Its smooth surface is ideal for creating neat ceilings and partition walls, and it is easy to finish.
This type is suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, workspaces, and other interior areas without special requirements.
At Toko PJM, options include Yoshino 9 mm Gypsum and Jayaboard Sheetrock 9 mm, which can be selected according to your project needs.
2. Moisture-Resistant Gypsum for Humid Areas
Rooms with higher humidity levels require special consideration when selecting materials. Moisture-resistant gypsum is designed to provide better resistance to humidity than standard gypsum.
One available option is Yoshino Moisture Resistance, offered in 9 mm and 12 mm thicknesses at Toko PJM.
Although it offers moisture resistance, this type must still be used according to the product specifications. It is not necessarily waterproof or suitable for continuous exposure to leaks or standing water.
3. Firestop Gypsum for Fire Resistance
For buildings that require fire protection, specialized gypsum boards such as Jayaboard Firestop are available.
This type is designed to support ceiling or partition systems with fire resistance according to the specifications of the installation system. Its use should be matched to the building's requirements and applicable safety standards.
Keep in mind that fire resistance depends on the entire system, not just the gypsum board itself.
4. Don't Forget the Framing and Supporting Materials!
Besides choosing the right gypsum type, pay attention to the installation system. Gypsum boards require suitable framing and accessories to achieve a neat installation.
For Bali Ceiling Framing needs, Hollow can be used as one of the ceiling frame materials. Meanwhile, Bali Lightweight Steel is also available for construction applications according to its intended function and structural design.
Make sure the board thickness, frame spacing, screw type, and installation method follow the product recommendations.
Choose Gypsum According to Your Project Needs!
Before purchasing, assess the room conditions and determine the function required from the gypsum board. Choosing the right materials helps you plan ceiling and partition installations more effectively.
Toko PJM provides various Jayaboard and Yoshino gypsum boards, Hollow, screws, and supporting materials for building projects in Bali.
