As a fire-resistant board various types of drywall panels which have in the event of fire, the fire resistance of space accounts , service shafts, ventilation ducts , plants of the building to ensure and other components.

Most fire protection panels contain fibers made from an incombustible material ( glass fibers ) , which increase stability.

Gypsum plasterboard with fire resistance (GKF panels) with a thickness of 12.5 to 25 mm is often used for flat paneling of walls and ceilings . These are plasterboard panels (GKB panels) that have been specially equipped to retain their shape for a defined period of time in the event of a fire. The crystal water bound in the plaster evaporates at higher temperatures and cools the plate. Plasterboard fire protection panels are usually labeled in red for identification.

Gypsum fiber boards or calcium silicate boards in thicknesses of around 20 to 50 mm are used to produce ventilation ducts, encasing technical components and other small-scale paneling . The larger fiber content of these panels allows them to be screwed close to the edge as well as in the end faces (cut edges) without the panel edge splitting or breaking. The fiber content also improves the adhesion of adhesives .
