  8. Final Verdict

There are several types, based on the behavior and the place of installation. One important benefit of drywall is the existence of curved corners on the long ends of drywall sheets, which, when connected together, make a shallow recess for drywall tape and joint compound, resulting in virtually unnoticeable completed connections.

There’s also an ECO platform created from recycled materials that may be used to make concrete-looking drywall. However, don’t be fooled by the names: drywall is also referred to as Sheetrock (a product of the United States Gypsum Corporation), gypsum board, plasterboard, wallboard, and gyp board.

1.  Regular Drywall or White Board

On one side, regular drywall is white, and on the other, it is brown. It is most likely the cost-effective drywall variety, with thicknesses going from 3/8 inch to one inch.

This is the most common variety, and four-by-eight-foot panels are usually available. You can explore several other brands on the internet.

2.  Green Board Drywall

Green board drywall, also known as moisture-resistant drywall, has a green surface that makes it more water-resistant than conventional drywall.

It’s a little pricier, but keep in mind that it’s not hydrophobic, so don’t use it if you’re going to be near water. It’s also commonly used as a tile backer in wet areas like basement walls and bathrooms, as well as laundry rooms, utility rooms, and kitchens.

3.  Blue Board Drywall

Plaster baseboard is another name for blue board drywall. For plywood plastering, a blue board is applied, and the surface paper has unique absorption properties.

Veneer plastering offers high water and mold resistance, and there are fewer stages involved. Blue board drywall isn’t designed to be used with tape, mud, or paint. It performs well in damp areas and other bathrooms, and it also helps in eliminating noise.

4. Paperless Drywall

Paperless drywall has taken place on the traditional drywall. The form of drywall is wrapped in fiberglass rather than paper, which protects the gypsum board from rot and provides even more mildew and mold resistance.

Although the board’s durability is slightly higher than that of conventional drywall, some building professionals find it easier to cut.

Because paperless drywall includes some subtle patterns, a joint compound will be needed to achieve a clean, neat finish drywall level.

5. Purple Drywall

Purple drywall has the same successful benefits as conventional drywall, but it is more moisture and mold-resistant properties.

It’s suitable for all wall and popcorn ceiling applications, and it’s especially well-suited to areas where moisture and mold resistance are desirable. That’s the one to employ if it will come into touch with water.

6. Type X Drywall

This is what is referred to as a “fire-resistant” wallboard. To attain a better fire rating, multiple thicknesses might be employed in layers. It’s more difficult to cut and work with than standard drywall, and it’s typically found in garages, rooms, and apartment blocks where it’s required by building regulations.

Special noncombustible fibers are used to make Type X drywall. It usually comes in a 5/8-inch thickness, and the additional thickness can help with sound insulation.

7.  Soundproof Drywall

The STC of soundproof drywall is increased by using laminated drywall manufactured from a combination of wood fibers, gypsum, and polymers (sound transmission class).

Because this drywall is harder than conventional drywall, it may be more difficult to cut than other types. It is employed in situations where noise is an issue or when silence is required in a room because of its soundproofing properties.

Final Verdict

With so many various varieties of drywall, it’s refreshing to find a brand-new drywall product that’s completely unique. It demonstrates how building products are developing to provide homeowners with more value.

Drywall repair and popcorn ceiling have been around for over a century, with advances focusing on making it more resistant, which handles dampness and moisture. In this era, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) will appear to develop in our homes.
