At 12.5mm thick (the most popular thickness in the Knauf Wallboard Plasterboard range), 12.5mm Knauf Wallboard Plasterboard can be decorated immediately upon installation; with either a thistle plaster finish or if you're eager to get on, direct decoration with a splash of paint.

2400mm x 1200mm x 12.5mm Knauf Wallboard Plasterboard is both easy to handle and install. Plus, it complies fully with BS EN520, so you can be sure it meets all the necessary safety standards - performance and protection in one standard plasterboard material. 


12.5mm Knauf Wallboard Plasterboard 2400mm x 1200mm Applications

Otherwise known as wallboard or gypsum plasterboard, the boards can be easily fixed to timber and metal partitions with mechanical fixings and to brick/masonry constructions with drywall adhesive. Purposed for use as a cladding component in a variety of partitions and lining systems where basic fire, structural and acoustic levels are required, 12.5mm Knauf Wallboard Plasterboard can be installed in either single or in multi-layers to increase acoustic and fire performance. 

  • Partitions
  • Linings
  • Ceilings


12.5mm Knauf Wallboard Plasterboard Tapered Edge 2400mm x 1200mm Specifications

Comprising a robust core of the highest-quality gypsum, 12.5mm Knauf Plasterboard Wallboard is faced by two paper liners, the ivory face of which is suitable for taping and jointing. This is just one of 12.5mm Square Edge plasterboard's many benefits. They're also easy to handle and install. At 12.5mm thick, these boards are the range's most popular thickness.

Let's check the specs:

  • Plasterboard is easy to score and snap for quick and snappy installation
  • Can be fixed using screws or by dot and dabbing with plasterboard adhesive - for best performance, use in conjunction with Knauf jointing compounds, metal systems and finishes
  • Standard gypsum board for general application where normal fire, structural and acoustic levels are required
  • Cost-effective choice for reducing noise transmission, particularly airborne sounds such as speech
  • Suited for partitions, linings and ceilings - versatile application range
  • Ideal for a plaster finish or for direct decoration including painting
  • Thermal Conductivity: 0.19 W/mK

Knauf Wallboard Tapered Edge - The Benefits

There are a few key reasons why tapered edge plasterboard is generally considered to be a better option than square edge plasterboard. 

  • Much easier to create smooth, professional-looking finishes when jointing and skimming
  • Help to prevent cracks from forming in the plasterboard, which can be a common issue with square edge plasterboard
  • Generally much easier to work with overall, meaning that you are less likely to make mistakes when installing it


12.5mm Knauf Wallboard Plasterboard Storage & Handling

The boards must be stored flat, and be protected from inclement weather.

If you need to store 12.5mm Knauf Wallboard Plasterboards for a while before installation, you should choose a cool, dry space.

Our rule of thumb when it comes to storage is that the boards should not be stored on the ground. Instead, pop them on a level surface and under a protective cover, just for good measure.

12.5mm Knauf Wallboard Plasterboard Cutting

Cutting plasterboard need not be difficult. We suggest using a sharp knife or saw, and a straight edge to guide your cuts.

When you're ready to start cutting, simply score the plasterboard with your knife or saw. Then, using a straight edge, snap the plasterboard along the scored line. You can then cut it to size as needed.

Relatively easy to cut and install to a metal frame partition system.

Fantastic board, highly recommend

Jack Harris on

I applied the boards to my old battered walls so I could get new looking walls. I used some plasterboard adhesive to dot and dab them to walls. Great product to use and my living room walls are looking brand new!

Jean H on

Excellent quality and very competitive price. Will buy again.

Martin Chivers on

Chose this product over the square edge as the joints are less noticeable when plastering. Wanted british gypsum originally, but this product worked a treat with thistle plaster finish! Five stars!

Kate Huxtable on

Great for use in ceiling linings. Got these tapereds along with square edge plasterboard and some moisture resistant boards. All work correctly and delivered quickly!
