Drywall "Magma": manufacturer, reviews, photo

Today, when performing construction or repair work for facing surfaces, plasterboard is used instead of boards, chipboard or plywood. But the functionality of this material depends primarily on its strength, so only high quality products are popular. Previously, to find products that would suit all the indicators, it was necessary to spend a lot of time, but now it is not necessary: in the building materials market, there are many drywall sheets from different companies that are of good quality. This number includes the plasterboard "Magma". The manufacturer offers customers certified products, for which production is carried out proper control. Thanks to this, the advantages of gypsum cardboard products of the company are very significant. What are these indicators? About this further.

Product Features

Building cloth for dry plaster has the following advantages:

1. Flexibility.
2. Excellent strength properties. The ultimate strength is from 1200 to 1500 kg / m³. This figure allows the use of plasterboard sheets to solve many construction or repair tasks. But the strength of the sheets depends on their thickness. So canvases 1 cm thick can withstand a load of 15 kg, from 1.0 to 1.8 cm - about 18 kg, which is much higher than similar figures of foreign similar products.
3. Stable retention of all properties during installation and subsequent operation.
4. The accuracy of size and appearance, corresponding to the upper class (A).
5. Environmental safety. For the production of sheets, paper and gypsum are used, which are completely harmless. Therefore, the material can be used when repairing children's rooms.
6. High fire resistance of GCLO plates.
7. Excellent resistance against penetration of moisture by the GKLV.

The cost of plates depends on their purpose, thickness and size. Sometimes consumers are interested: plasterboard "Magma" or "Knauf" - what is better to choose? For all indicators, both types of materials almost coincide, but here at the cost of the product from the "Magma" are more affordable. This is due to the fact that the production is carried out on the territory of Russia, while the prices for all imported materials due to transportation costs for their delivery to the country have a higher cost.

Specifications

Drywall "Magma" on sale can be of several types, which have the corresponding marking:

1. GKLVO sheets are fire-damp cloths.
2. GKLO sheets are fireproof material.
3. GKLV cloths have excellent moisture resistance.

Thus, gypsum boards for ceilings have a weight of 22.5 kg and the following dimensions: a thickness of 0.95 cm, a width of 1.2 m, a length of 2.5 m. Products for partitions and walls weigh about 28 kg, have a thickness of 1.25 cm With similar ceiling sheets width and length.

Features of selection and installation

A large assortment of sheets comes on sale. All of them have many distinctive features, in particular this:

• Purpose;
• Types of edges;
• Dimensions;
• thickness;
• view.

Sometimes when creating designs of the desired shape, it becomes necessary to perform the facing of not flat surfaces, but curved ones. To get the desired form, you need to dry the Magma plasterboard with water, wait until it softens enough that it can be shaped and left to dry. After the plate has completely dried, it will again become strong, while retaining the resulting shape after wetting.

To properly choose the right plates, you need to know what kind they are, what properties they have and for the operation under what conditions they are intended.

Fire-resistant boards

The composition of gypsum board products of this type includes special additives with reinforcing, water-repellent and antifungal, fire-resistant properties that impart high fire-resistant characteristics to the "Magma" drywall. The manufacturer, consumer reviews and expert opinions are similar: fire-moisture resistant slabs perfectly resist both moisture and fire. Suitable for use in any premises where the listed properties of the material are important. And they are convenient in the work, because in a short time, thanks to the large overall dimensions, you can quickly perform the entire amount of work.

Ceiling plates

Material of gray color with blue marking is intended for facing of ceiling surfaces in premises where the microclimate is dry or normal. To perform the installation of the canvas, it is necessary to equip the frame, for which the steel galvanized profiles are used. And you can build not only single-level, but multi-level designs.

To get the necessary rigidity when creating a ceiling, you can mount the plasterboard "Magma" in two layers. But at the same time there is an obligatory condition - the longitudinal and transverse joints must be displaced. To subsequently hide the joints for the final cladding works, a serpentine net is used, which is then covered with gypsum putty. And you can buy these materials of the same brand as the plasterboard - "Magma". Photos of surfaces that were before and then obtained as a result of the use of materials, better than any words prove, so surprising can be the result.

Standard Plates

Place of installation - premises with a dry or normal microclimate. It is possible to cover with material both ceiling surfaces and walls, create partitions, different constructions. The plates are also mounted on a frame (wooden or metal). When facing the walls you can attach the canvas directly to the surface. In this case, to fix the drywall "Magma" on the base, you can use a special glue.

But most importantly, using gipsokartonnye products, you can perform a surface not only smooth, but also other, even complex curvilinear forms.

Moisture-proof plates

Due to the hydrophobic properties, this type of material can also be used in those rooms where the humidity level is increased. These are balconies, rooms with a swimming pool, showers, bathrooms and others.

Using moisture resistant cloths, you can:

1. Install suspended ceilings.
2. Align the walls.
3. Make piers.
4. To make partitions.

Mount gipsokartonnye products on the walls can be both on the frame (if you want to hide communications), and directly on the surface of walls, ceiling. Subsequently, they can be lined using ceramic tiles. On the moisture-resistant type of plasterboard "Magma" reviews of builders and consumers who deal with it, confirm: the material perfectly holds the shape even in damp rooms, which once again confirms its quality.

Fireproof Plates

To provide the necessary fire-resistant properties to the material, special additives are used in the manufacture. This approach makes it possible to use gypsum plasterboard products with fire-resistant characteristics when facing the ceiling and wall surfaces of those rooms whose fire safety is demanded.

In this case, the microclimate in the premises can be both dry and normal. The color of the canvas is pink or gray, and the markings are red.
