Limitations:

  • For interior use only
  • Should not be immersed in water
  • Should not be used as a tile backer in tub and shower surrounds or in areas with a risk of continuous exposure to water such as swimming pool enclosures, steam rooms or gang shower rooms
  • Avoid exposure to prolonged, extreme temperatures: 125°F (52°C)
  • Should be stored, handled and installed to comply with industry standards GA216 & ASTM C840

Mold and Moisture Resistance:

GreenGlass is ideal for higher moisture areas where paper-faced board is not an option. Produced with the TemShield® Mold Protection System engineered into its gypsum core, GreenGlass is faced on both sides with naturally mold-resistant fiberglass mats. It scored a 10, the highest value possible, when tested in accordance with ASTM D3273, the standard test for mold resistance. Its water absorption of less than 5 percent was tested in accordance with ASTM C473.

Fire Resistance of 5/8" Type X Panels:

GreenGlass gypsum board has been tested in accordance with ASTM E119 and therefore may provide a fire-resistance rating of one or more hours, depending upon the U.L.-approved assembly in which it is applied.

Low VOC-Emitting Material:

Temple-Inland gypsum board products are third-party certified by Materials Analytical Services, LLC (MAS) to meet the performance standard established for low-emitting materials under the Collaborative for High Performance Schools (CHPS) Program.

Sulfur Emissions Testing:

In emissions level testing for carbon disulfide and carbonyl sulfide conducted by Materials Analytical Services (MAS), Temple-Inland gypsum board was determined to be negative for sulfur off-gassing and is not considered a problematic corrosive drywall type.

Storage:

Gypsum board should be carried, never dragged, to prevent damaging the finished edges. When storing gypsum boards, store them indoors and protect them from weather and direct sunlight. Boards should be stored lying flat and neatly stacked. Care should be taken to prevent sagging or damage to edges, ends and surfaces. Placing boards against framing is not recommended.
