Windproof Gypsum Board Norgips GU-X9 – a 9.5 mm thick board consisting of an impregnated gypsum core protected on both sides by cardboard. The red side of the board is additionally treated with wax, making the surface water-repellent. Designed for sealing, reinforcing, and protecting external walls against wind, as well as for use in roofing underlays. Suitable as wind protection for insulated roofs
