I am renovating a bedroom. The wall is a mix of wallpaper, lightweight concrete, tiles. I have decided to glue renovation plasterboard 6mm on the walls. Which adhesive should I use? I have read on this forum that PL400 and PL600 have been completely banned in constructions due to health risks. I have read a little about ready-mixed plaster mortar, including Megaron (Byggmax). Ardex S 48 seems good but is way too expensive. I have personally used No More Nails for smaller bonding and it has worked well. The most important thing, besides the boards not falling down, is that it is not hazardous to health since you spend a lot of time in a bedroom. Help please.
I read it as mentioned on this forum.

PL400 and PL600 are completely banned on larger constructions because the fumes you are exposed to impair several important functions when you are exposed to them.
I previously worked as a builder, and it was during that time I found out about the foam but also that PL400/600 were completely banned. ;D And, believe me... I've made quite a few blunders using these tubes when I got completely high from the fumes. :x
The reason I brought this up was to make the user aware and think twice before exposing himself. Some people can handle many, while others can get caught the first time.

Best answer
It's bullshit.
Carcinogenic substances are in everything, e.g., most of our food products.
You probably can't perform a single step in the construction phase without being exposed to carcinogenic substances. Being worried about a few tubes of glue is honestly not justified.

Any construction/assembly adhesive will do the job.
Tec7 is good but unnecessarily expensive.

Okay, I may have interpreted the post from Lantbrukarparet incorrectly. Clearly, it's not good to sniff glue regardless of the brand. It's probably a completely different thing when the tiles are on the wall and the glue has cured. Then I'll go with PL600 unless someone else has a better suggestion.
Thank you for a good response, C.Lundin.

PL600 works well for such jobs, water-based and fairly harmless compared to other chemicals

Precis Tec 7 is perfect to have at home, but if you're doing larger projects you might as well buy something for 50:-/300ml
My vote goes to a pre-mixed tile adhesive, like this one

If you're going up with gypsum and want it both rigid and able to handle some level differences, I don't think thin strings of something like PL400 are sufficient, even though the boards will obviously stay in place with this.
