Gypsum Lab Services - R&D, Analysis and Testing


Innogyps operates a full gypsum lab facility. We can crush, grind and mill rock, dry FGD, calcine to stucco or plaster and make lab-scale board samples. We provide end-to-end lab process and analysis services that duplicate full-scale manufacturing principles to provide fast and cost-effective information to plant operators, new product developers and suppliers to the global gypsum industry. Our lab services are available on a sample basis or as part of a long term project, depending on the scope of our customer’s needs.

Lab Gypsum Board

Gypsum Board Research, Formulation and Testing

Using ASTM C473 or EN 520 test methods, we can test lab scale fire resistance, nail pull resistance, flexural strength, board core structure, impact resistance, humidified deflection and more for various R&D compositions or formulations. We benchmark lab samples, plant trial samples or commercial boards from around the world.
