Gold Bond® XP® Hi-Impact® Gypsum Board offers the same mold-, moisture- and abuse-resistant features as XP® Hi-Abuse Gypsum Board, and in addition, it has fiberglass mesh embedded into the core providing even more impact/penetration resistance.

It also has a specially formulated core to provide fire-resistance ratings. And you can use XP Hi-Impact Gypsum Board as a tile backerboard in dry areas or areas with limited water exposure, such as toilet/sink areas and areas above tile in tubs and showers.

This impact-resistant gypsum board is designed for use in areas prone to cavity penetration, such as gymnasiums, correctional facilities, schools and hospitals.

GridMarX® are printed on the paper surface to help installers instantly identify stud locations and make accurate cuts without having to pencil in or snap chalk lines.
