USG Plaster: The Right Choice for Faster and More Efficient Construction

In today's fast-paced construction industry, time is money. That's why USG plaster products have been designed to provide cleaner, faster, and more easily handled solutions for builders and contractors. With over 100 years of scientific studies and success behind them, USG gypsum boards are the go-to choice for many professionals in the field.

One key component of USG plaster is their retarder product line. Retarders slow down the chemical crystal formation that causes gypsum plaster to set or harden, allowing for a longer working time. However, it's important to note that excessive amounts of retarder can lead to 'dry-out' - the inability of plaster to set before the water necessary for chemical reaction evaporates.

For lime-based products, USG offers a specialized retarder product designed specifically for use with their Diamond Veneer Finish, Red Top Brand Finish Plaster, and Red Top Brand Gauging Plaster. This product is ideal for projects that require a slight to moderate lengthening of set times.

Another advantage of USG plaster is its ability to provide superior installation time. Their suspended drywall grids are designed to be efficient and pre-engineered solutions for installing ceilings. With these systems, builders can rest assured that their ceilings will be installed quickly and with minimal hassle.

USG also offers a range of retarder products to meet the needs of different projects. For example, Diamond Veneer Finish is perfect for light commercial and residential construction in single-family homes, high-rise buildings, and more. This veneer finish provides an economical solution for walls and ceilings that requires a strong, hard surface that resists abrasion and surface cracking.

In addition to their retarders and veneer finishes, USG also offers a range of suspended drywall ceiling options designed specifically for smaller spaces. These products provide builders with the flexibility they need to complete projects efficiently and effectively.
