GIB Tough Zone®
Protecting good looks from damage in rooms subject to wear and tear like hallways, garages, rumpus rooms and childrens bedrooms.
Certain areas of a home are subject to greater wear and tear such as damage to finish or linings, and require refurbishment sooner than the rest of the home. Areas that typically suffer from the effects of wear and tear include hallways, stairwells, rumpus rooms, games rooms, children’s bedrooms, and garages.
No one wants to spend unnecessary time and money repairing damage to wall surfaces and linings. This can be prevented simply by planning carefully and specifying purpose built materials up front to ensure that your interiors keep looking good for longer.
Designate rooms that require durabiliy as GIB Tough Zones® where the primary wall lining used is GIB Tougline®
GIB Toughline® is a patented product and is much tougher than ordinary GIB® Standard plasterboard, so it can more easily take the knocks without showing the signs of wear and tear. The extra strength of GIB Toughline® is due to the special high density core, which is reinforced with a fibreglass mesh.
