Why this product
Tiger Gypsum Plaster is designed to achieve a smooth, high-quality surface before the painting or wall-covering stage.
It is not just a wall-smoothing compound – it is intended mainly for deep filling and perimeter sealing in plasterboard systems, especially where fire resistance and sound insulation are required.
Technical description
Tiger Gypsum Plaster is a mineral, gypsum-based filling and finishing compound designed for levelling, repairing and smoothing walls and ceilings before the finishing stages.
The product has a uniform texture, high workability and excellent adhesion to plasterboard and concrete surfaces. It also contains an anti-mould additive that helps maintain the quality of the surface over time.
In plasterboard systems, the compound is also used for deep filling and perimeter sealing, as part of completing systems with fire-resistance and sound-insulation requirements.
Applications
• Levelling plasterboard walls
• Smoothing concrete walls
• Localised plaster repairs
• Filling deep joints
• Perimeter sealing in plasterboard systems
• Repairing cracks and defects
• Preparing walls for painting
• Plasterboard ceilings

Acoustic performance
• Designed as a filling and sealing compound for acoustic plasterboard systems.
• Helps reduce sound transmission through openings, joints and gaps in the system.
• Allows the acoustic insulation layer to remain continuous when installed as part of a standard-compliant system.
• Not a sound-insulation or sound-absorption material in its own right, but complements the performance of the system.
Fire resistance
• Mineral, gypsum-based material.
• Gypsum contains water of crystallisation, which helps delay heat transfer during a fire.
• Intended for use as part of plasterboard systems with fire-resistance requirements.
• Particularly suitable for deep filling and perimeter sealing in plasterboard systems where fire resistance and sound insulation are required.
• The final fire rating is determined by the complete system, not by the filling compound alone.
Standards
• Manufactured by Yoshino Gypsum Co., Ltd. – Japan
• Intended for professional plasterboard work in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications
Installation
• Mix with clean water according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Apply to a clean, dry and stable surface.
• Fill joints, cracks and areas requiring levelling using a trowel or filling knife.
• Once dry, the surface can be lightly sanded to a smooth finish.
• Paint or apply a finishing coat only once the compound has fully dried.
