GYPTOP Gypsum Ceiling Board / Plasterboard – 12mm Thickness, 1200mm × 2400mm Standard Sheet

GYPTOP is a popular and widely used gypsum plasterboard brand in the Nigerian construction market, manufactured for interior ceiling and wall applications (commonly called POP ceiling board, suspended gypsum board, or drywall sheet).

• Core material: High-quality gypsum plaster core sandwiched between two layers of strong recycled paper liner.
• Thickness: 12 mm (most common for ceiling work in Nigeria; 9 mm and 15 mm variants also exist).
• Standard size: 1200 mm × 2400 mm (4 ft × 8 ft) — covers ≈ 2.88 m² per sheet. Larger 1200 × 3000 mm (4 ft × 10 ft) sheets are also available.
• Face color: Light green / teal-green to pinkish pastel gradient (indicating moisture-resistant or standard grade — green is typically moisture-resistant for humid areas like Port Harcourt).
• Edge type: Tapered / recessed edge (ideal for seamless jointing with jointing compound / tape).
• Key properties: Lightweight (≈ 8–10 kg per sheet), easy to cut and install, good fire resistance, sound insulation, and thermal properties.
• Common uses: Suspended/POP ceilings (flat, tray, cove, bulkhead designs), wall partitioning, drylining, decorative cornices, and false ceilings in homes, offices, hotels, churches, schools, and commercial spaces.

GYPTOP is a mid-range to popular brand in Nigeria (alongside Knauf, Tiger, Elephant, etc.), favored by contractors for its consistent quality, availability, and reasonable price.
