8mm Medium-Low (Auxiliary Material/Light Load) Moisture-Proof, Light Suspended Ceiling, Backboard Kitchen & bathroom auxiliary suspended ceilings, corridor suspended ceilings, cabinet backboards
9mm Medium (Conventional Light Load) Home Decoration Foundation, Cost-Effective Conventional suspended ceilings, lightweight non-load-bearing partitions
9.5mm Medium-High (Universal Mainstream) Balanced, Universal, Home Decoration Mainstream Full-house suspended ceilings, ordinary partition walls, commercial project base layers
12mm High (Core Mainstream) High Strength, Large Span, Moisture-Proof Main partition walls, large-span suspended ceilings, humid areas
15mm Professional (High Function) High Sound Insulation, Heavy Load, Corrosion Resistance Hotel/hospital partition walls, heavy equipment base layers
18mm Professional (Top Function) Ultra-High Sound Insulation, Industrial Grade, Reinforcement Audio-visual rooms, recording studios, industrial protective partitions

 

Supplementary Key Principles for Selection

  • Prioritize thickening for humid environments: For scenarios such as kitchens, bathrooms and basements, select PVC gypsum board of at least 12mm and above, relying on the dual guarantee of film moisture resistance + thickness deformation resistance.
  • Suspended ceiling span determines thickness: Select 9.5mm for single panel span >600mm, 12mm for >800mm, and 15mm or double-layer boards for >1000mm.
  • Upgrade thickness according to sound insulation requirements: Select 12mm for ordinary sound insulation, 15mm for high sound insulation, and 18mm or double-layer 12mm staggered installation for top-level sound insulation.
  • Thickening is mandatory for load-bearing base layers: For base layers of heavy lamps and equipment installation, thin boards of 9mm and below are strictly prohibited, and 12mm and above are preferred.
