March 5, 2007—Caraustar Industries, Inc., a major independent producer of gypsum facing paper, has developed a new mold, mildew and moisture resistant product, SafeFace MR, for the wallboard industry.
SafeFace MR can be manufactured in all regular and specialty gypsum facing paper grades including creamface and grayback for interior drywall applications, shaftliner, sheathing, tile-backer and pre-deck products. Wallboard made with SafeFace MR has application and finishing characteristics that are the same as regular wallboard, with no extra finishing time or cost.
Caraustar, a recycled packaging company, is one of the world’s largest integrated manufacturers of converted recycled paperboard and serves the four principal recycled boxboard product end-use markets: tubes, cores and composite cans; folding cartons; gypsum facing paper and other specialty paperboard products.
