British Gypsum - BBA certification for Glasroc products
British Gypsum’s award winning
Glasroc paperless gypsum boards have received new
certification from the British Board of Agrement (BBA),
the UK’s leading independent approval body for
construction products.
Glasroc FireCase s, the market leading steel encasement
board and Glasroc MultiBoard, a high performance
multi-purpose lining board, are manufactured by a unique
patented process that provides an ultra-smooth
plaster-like surface, unlike traditional plasterboards
which have a paper lining to both faces.
In the absence of appropriate British Standards, BBA
certificates provide architects and other construction
industry professionals with the assurance of an
independent assessment of the fire, acoustic and
structural performance of the products, based on actual
test evidence.
The new certificates for Glasroc FireCase s and Glasroc
MultiBoard also include up-to-date information on the
physical properties, weights, densities and dimensions
of the products, and the latest Building Regulation
Approved Documents, as well as new fire resistance
testing information and Hp/A tables, as appropriate.
Glasroc boards were developed by British Gypsum almost
20 years ago and are today used for a wide range of
applications from fire protection to structural steel
beams and columns, to high performance firewalls and
fire, moisture and impact resistant wall and ceiling
linings. Glasroc MultiBoard, due to its exceptional
flexibility, is also widely used for lining modern
curved wall and ceiling structures.
Now in their 3rd and 4th editions respectively, the
fully revised certificates are available to download
from the BBA website www.bbacerts.co.uk. Further
information and dimensions for Glasroc products are
available from
