Gypsum board combined with a moisture resistant air-tight sheet. It is the best suited product for "the Energy-Saving Housing for the Future Generation" due to its superior air leakage prevention efficiency. Compliant with moisture control specified in these regulations: ・Ecopoint for housing ・Flat 35S (energy saving) ・Long-term superior housing ・Housing Quality Assurance Act (4th class energy saving） *The Energy Saving Housing for the Future Generation: The purpose of "The Energy Saving Housing for the Future Generation" is to enhance air-tightness, thermal insulation, and heat insulation in housings in order to reduce energy use from fossil fuels etc. and to limit carbon dioxide emissions. Applications Used as base layers for interior covering materials of ceilings and walls in the same way as Tiger Board. Features Moisture-proof airtight sheet seals spaces in wall or ceiling framings and creates air barriers to prevent heat leakage. This brings excellent heat insulation in buildings and reduces energy loss of air-conditioning.

New Lath Board is a semi-perforated gypsum board, suitable for plastering with a standard thickness of 7mm, particularly in Japanese-style houses. B-YN Plaster can be used for New Lath Board. This system finishing is called Lath and Plaster Construction Method. Applications Suitable for Japanese-style wall system (Fiber wall finishing, Kyokabe finishing, Shikkui finishing) Features Suitable base board for plaster. Comes in large size (standard size: 910mm x 1820mm), allowing less work for joint treatment.

Tiger Noise Dampening Panel is a composite, engineered acoustic panel, which combines regular-type Tiger Board and hard-type Tiger Super Hard with special vibration dampening material, which instantaneously damps vibration of the wall panel and reduces sound transmission to or from adjacent rooms. Applications Ideal for use as separation walls between children’s rooms or audio rooms in order to isolate impact noise and minimize its spread to adjacent rooms, or used for housing renovation intended to provide higher levels of sound insulation. Features Provides significantly improved level of sound insulation, and reduces unwanted “daily life noises” (impact sounds and structure-transmitted sounds), thanks to the effect of noise and vibration dampening. Enhanced material strength due to it being a composite panel made from Tiger Super Hard. Tiger Super Hard

Tiger Electromagnetic Wave Shielding Board is comprised of gypsum board as its base material and laminated with aluminum foil, providing electromagnetic wave shields. Applications Suitable for areas requiring protection against electric wave interference (e.g. hospitals) * In order to construct the entire electromagnetic wave shield system, it is necessary to conduct electromagnetic environment survey, electromagnetic shield design, electromagnetic shield construction and shield performance inspection. Construction work should be contracted to shield construction specialists that have the know-how regarding these matters. Features Easy to install because gypsum board is used as the base material. Most construction methods for gypsum boards are applicable to this product, and is the most cost-effective material available for electromagnetic wave shielding.

■Related information └ Product Specification and Dimension └ What is “sick building syndrome”?

Patented (Patent No. 4213365) (Gypsum board with formaldehyde absorption and decomposition abilities) Tiger Hi-Clean Board has the ability to absorb, decompose and reduce formaldehyde, which is the cause of “Sick Building Syndrome”, without losing excellent qualities of gypsum board itself. This will bring you improved air quality and comfortable living spaces. Applications Used as base layers for interior ceilings, walls, and partitions in the same way as Tiger Board. Suitable particularly for areas where measures against sick-building syndrome are required, such as housings or schools. Features Absorbs and decomposes formaldehyde emitted from furnitures and building materials in buildings such as newly-built houses in a short period of time. No reemission of formaldehyde as it is chemically absorbed and decomposed. Formaldehyde absorption and decomposition ability Fireproof material certification number Fireproof performance Thickness Quasi noncombustible：QM-9828 9.5mm Noncombustible：NM-8619 12.5mm Surface Finish Use breathable textile wallpaper, paper-made wallpaper or watercolor for surface finishs in order to exercise its formaldehyde absorption and decomposition performances.

(Gypsum board with moisture absorption and emission abilities) Tiger Hi-Clean Sukatto Board has excellent humidity control as well as formaldehyde absorption and decomposition abilities, easing appreciable changes in humidity so that comfortable indoor environment can be maintained. The surface of the board rarely gets moisture condensation due to its excellent humidity absorption and emission abilities, enabling it to decrease mold and mildew growth due to less adherence of airborne dust on the board surfaces. Applications For interior ceilings, walls, and partitions. Particularly suitable for areas where humidity fluctuates greatly, such as closets. Features Absorbs and decomposes formaldehyde emitted from building materials in buildings such as newly-built houses in a short period of time. No reemission of formaldehyde as it is chemically absorbed and decomposed. Formaldehyde absorption and decomposition ability Fireproof material certification number Fireproof performance Thickness Quasi noncombustible：QM-0172　 9.5mm Noncombustible：NM-0530 12.5mm Surface Finish Use breathable textile wallpaper, paper-made wallpaper or watercolor for surface finishes in order to exercise its moisture absorption and emission performances. Perforated decorative gypsum board requiring no surface finishes is also available. Tiger Hi-Clean Sukatto Closet Board
