Clay panel

Clay wallboards are a sustainable alternative to gypsum plasterboards, suitable for drywall applications for interior walls and ceilings.

Due to the clay component they have the ability to absorb large amounts of humidity through the plaster and helping to protect vulnerable buildings from excess moisture generated by modern living.

This is either reinforced by a reed mat or stabilised by straw or wood fibres (sawdust) as with clay bricks.

[citation needed] Clay panels are used for the dry construction of wall and ceiling claddings and facing shells.

The boards are mounted on a steel profile or wooden frame construction by means of screws or nails.
