Farmacell Gypsum Board. Some kind of moisture and heat resistant fiber gypsum board. Does anyone have any useful information about it?
 
Danish.. hmm..

well, could one use such a panel as a fire protection board/wall panel 2 dm from a sauna unit?

How does it withstand moisture? (Water splashing during sauna use)

the plan is to spray natural gypsum plaster on the panel.
 
There is a Swedish retailer in Västberga in Stockholm who can certainly provide accurate information.

As I understand it, fiberglass gypsum surpasses regular gypsum in terms of properties like fire protection. Regarding moisture, one of the major differences between regular gypsum and fiberglass gypsum is that fiberglass gypsum regains its original properties after being soaked - possibly a few millimeters thicker. Wet gypsum is just to be removed... However, this does not mean that you can use the board untreated in wet rooms - the same rules apply as with the use of regular gypsum. The consequences of water damage are a bit more pleasant, and the durability is much higher.
 
Okay, not as moisture-resistant as I thought then. A minireit board is probably the best board option to put up then... but they are just so expensive... I think I'll build a little wall section there instead. I have a large stack of bricks lying around, and mortar is cheap. Thanks for the info.
