You can't put a price on safety; ensuring you have the right fire protection in your home is simply invaluable. GTEC Fire Board plasterboard provides superior fire resistance for stud partitions, wall lining and ceiling systems, achieving up to 30 minutes of fire resistance from a 12.5mm single layer partition system and 60 minutes of fire resistance from a 15mm single layer partition system.
In compliance with BS1230 Type 5 and BS EN 520 Types D and F, these lightweight boards are heavyweights at reducing flame spread.
Coloured pink on the front and grey on the back, the boards also boast a handy tapered edge, meaning they are suitable for both jointing and skimming.
Ideal for fire-rated partitions in residential and commercial projects including for wall lining, ceiling systems, and partitions, GTEC Fire Board is a quick and simple way to ensure that your abode is protected in the event of a fire.
12.5mm Siniat GTEC Fire Board Tapered Edge Plasterboard Applications
GTEC Fire Board outperforms standard plasterboard by a mile; offering superior fire performance, the boards are not only stronger and harder but they also provide improved sound insulation and impact resistance in GTEC Drywall Systems.
On top of that, the boards do a wonderful job of drylining whilst meeting relevant national building regulations. We recommend using GTEC Fire Board where improved fire resistance is required.
GTEC Fire Board can be considered for the following applications:
- Stud partitions
- Wall lining
- Ceiling systems
12.5mm Siniat GTEC Fire Board Tapered Edge Plasterboard Specifications
When fire safety really has to count, fire-rated plasterboard can make a huge difference to the survival chances of those inside when the fire breaks out. These 2400mm x 1200mm x 12.5mm boards boast an impressive Euroclass rating of A2-s1, which means they are non-combustible. When you compare this with the opposite end of the Euroclass scale, (F rating which is easily flammable), it becomes apparent how effective GTEC Fire Board is at resisting fire.

How delivery works
We work with a nationwide network of trusted suppliers. Items in your basket may be supplied by different suppliers and delivered separately. Where this applies, you will see delivery charges shown at checkout for each part of your order. We always aim to group products from the same supplier to keep delivery costs as low as possible.
Delivery areas
Delivery charges apply to mainland UK, excluding: AB, CA, CF, DD, DG, EH, EX, FK, KA, KW, KY, IV, LA, LD, LL, ML, NP, PA, PH, PL, SA, SY, TR, TQ and TD.
If your address is in one of these areas, we will contact you before processing your order to confirm any additional costs. We do not currently offer delivery outside the UK mainland.
What to expect on delivery day
- Deliveries are typically kerbside.
- Please ensure someone is on-site to accept delivery. For heavier items, help with offloading may be required.
- Many building materials arrive on large vehicles. If access is restricted, a specialist vehicle such as a HIAB may be required and could incur an additional charge.
Why delivery can cost more than typical parcel delivery
Building materials often travel on larger vehicles and usually carry fewer drops per run than parcel networks. That is why delivery charges can be higher than standard e-commerce shipping.
Returns
Returns depend on what you have bought and whether there is anything wrong with it. For full details on eligibility, timeframes, and exclusions, please see our full policy.
