EC08™ Complete

Technical Specifications Installation Instructions

Complete by name and Complete by nature: for commercial environments, this ultimate plasterboard is specifically engineered to meet the highest standards across a broad range of performance requirements. 

Product Overview

EC08 Complete is manufactured with a dense, fibre-reinforced core and is specially formulated to provide superior performance for mould, impact, fire, acoustic and moisture resistance making it an excellent choice for most commercial applications.

All boards in the EC08 range contain high levels of recycled content and are manufactured to AS/NZS 2588 – Gypsum Plasterboard. Their low VOC emissions make them an ideal choice for applications where maintaining high levels of indoor air quality is important.

EC08 Complete is easily identified by its green coloured face paper.

Typical Applications:

EC08 Complete is typically used as a wall and ceiling lining in commercial green building projects where a high level of impact, fire, moisture and mould resistance is required and high levels of recycled content are desired. This includes all green building projects and applications where maintaining high levels of indoor air quality is important such as schools, health and aged care.

Tested Impact Performance

Gyprock impact resistant plasterboard products are manufactured with a heavier lining paper, and special additives to enhance the durability of their core. Typically, these products can withstand twice the discernible force of regular plasterboard products, making them ideal for high traffic areas.

Hard body impact

Hard body impact is assessed by dropping a 50mm steel ball onto the plasterboard surface from increasing heights.

Soft body impact

Soft body impact testing sees a weighted bag swung on a pendulum, striking the plasterboard surface.
