Gyproc SoundBloc Infinaé 100: Pioneering Sustainable Plasterboard in the UK
Driving Sustainable Innovation in Plasterboard
At British Gypsum, part of Saint-Gobain Interior Solutions, we are transforming how plasterboard is made with Gyproc SoundBloc Infinaé 100, the first UK-manufactured plasterboard using 100% recycled gypsum. This significant step supports our 2030 sustainability objectives and our journey towards Net Zero by 2050.
A Circular Economy Approach
Traditionally, plasterboard production has depended on virgin gypsum. With our innovative process, we now recycle waste plasterboard collected from UK construction sites, creating high-quality recycled plasterboard that meets the performance standards the industry expects while supporting the circular economy.
This not only reduces landfill waste but also helps contractors and specifiers meet BREEAM and LEED credits while supporting sustainable procurement practices in construction projects across the UK.
No Compromise on Performance
Gyproc SoundBloc Infinaé 100 offers the same exceptional sound insulation and durability as traditional plasterboard while significantly reducing environmental impact. There is no change required in installation methods, enabling easy specification in projects targeting net zero and sustainable construction.
By choosing Gyproc SoundBloc Infinaé 100, your projects benefit from:
- 100% recycled gypsum content
- Eligibility for BREEAM and LEED credits
- Contribution to circular economy targets
- Proven performance in sound insulation and durability
- Supporting CSR and carbon reduction goals
Supporting Your Business Goals
With increasing pressure on the UK construction industry to deliver sustainable builds, Gyproc SoundBloc Infinaé 100 enables businesses to gain a competitive advantage through demonstrable carbon reduction and alignment with corporate social responsibility objectives.
It also contributes to reducing lifecycle costs by using sustainably sourced materials while ensuring compliance with future environmental standards.
A Step Towards Net Zero
The launch of Gyproc SoundBloc Infinaé 100 is part of our wider strategy to advance sustainability across our operations, including initiatives like The Pallet LOOP partnership to reduce pallet waste across the UK construction sector.
By continuously seeking ways to reduce waste, recycle materials, and improve manufacturing efficiency, we are helping shape a more sustainable future for the construction industry.
The Future of Sustainable Plasterboard
Gyproc SoundBloc Infinaé 100 proves that high-performance, sustainable plasterboard can be produced entirely from recycled gypsum materials, offering a practical solution for the construction industry to reduce environmental impact without compromising on quality.
