American Gypsum’s Veneer gypsum wallboard is ideally suited for veneer plaster systems. This plaster base is erected in the same manner as traditional drywall. The fire-resistant gypsum core is encased in a distinctive 100% recycled blue absorptive face paper and sturdy liner paper on the back side. The blue face paper controls water absorption, thus forming a strong bond between the panel and one or two coat veneer plaster products. The face paper is folded around the long edges to reinforce and protect the core, with the ends being square-cut and finished smooth while the long edges of the panels are tapered.

Veneer gypsum wallboard has attained the GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certified® status and GREENGUARD Children & Schools Indoor Air Quality Certified® status. Products manufactured by American Gypsum contain no asbestos.
