Introducing Ramco Building Boards

Ramco Building Boards are durable calcium silicate and fibre cement boards designed for a wide range of internal construction applications. Suitable for walls, ceilings, partitions and fire protection systems, they provide a reliable alternative to traditional plasterboard, plywood and gypsum boards.

With an A1 non-combustible fire rating and the ability to form part of fire-rated systems of up to four hours, Ramco boards are a trusted choice for projects where fire performance is a priority. They also offer excellent acoustic properties, high impact resistance and long-term durability.

Easy to work with and finish, Ramco Building Boards can be painted, tiled or wallpapered to suit a variety of residential, commercial and industrial applications. Resistant to moisture, rot, fungi and pests, they deliver dependable performance in demanding environments.
