About Knauf Wallboard

Knauf Wallboard is a standard plasterboard featuring an ivory paper face, designed for general-purpose applications. It is a reliable and cost-effective solution commonly used in drylining systems, providing a smooth and durable surface for walls and ceilings. 

It is intended for use in areas that require a basic level of performance, offering a versatile substrate that can be finished with plaster or direct decoration. The board has an ivory front face and a brown reverse side, providing a clear distinction between the finished and unfinished sides.
