Elephant Plasterboard for Walls, Ceilings and Interior Building Systems

Elephant Plasterboard is a trusted interior lining solution used throughout New Zealand for residential, commercial, and renovation projects. Designed and tested for New Zealand building conditions, Elephant Plasterboard is manufactured to meet AS/NZS 2588 requirements and is widely specified for wall linings, ceiling systems, fire-rated assemblies, wet areas, acoustic control, and structural bracing applications.

Whether you're constructing a new home, completing a renovation, or working on a commercial fit-out, Elephant Plasterboard provides a range of products designed to suit different performance requirements and building code obligations.

Elephant Plasterboard Product Types

The range includes several specialised plasterboard options to suit different applications.

Standard Plasterboard is commonly used for general wall and ceiling linings in dry internal environments. Available in multiple sheet lengths and thicknesses, it provides a smooth, stable surface ready for stopping and finishing.

MultiSmart Plasterboard offers enhanced performance where improved acoustic control and bracing capability are required, making it suitable for many residential and commercial wall systems.

FireSmart Plasterboard is specifically designed for fire-rated wall and ceiling systems. Available in 10mm, 13mm, and 16mm thicknesses, it incorporates a fire-resistant core to help achieve higher fire resistance ratings in compliant building assemblies.

AquaSmart Plasterboard is designed for use in wet area applications such as bathrooms, laundries, and kitchens when installed as part of approved wet area systems.

Applications for Residential and Commercial Projects

Elephant Plasterboard is suitable for a wide range of interior construction applications. Builders use it for wall and ceiling linings, intertenancy walls, fire-rated systems, acoustic separation, and code-compliant bracing systems. It is equally suitable for new builds, extensions, renovations, and commercial fit-outs.

The extensive range of sheet sizes, including lengths up to 6000mm, allows installers to reduce joins and improve finishing efficiency on larger projects.

Choosing the Right Elephant Plasterboard

Selecting the right plasterboard depends on the intended application and performance requirements. Standard boards are ideal for general interior lining, while FireSmart products are specified where fire-rated construction is required. AquaSmart products are suited to wet areas, and MultiSmart boards can provide additional benefits for acoustic and bracing applications.

Consider factors such as moisture exposure, fire-rating requirements, acoustic performance, sheet size, and framing design when selecting plasterboard for your project.
