Our new Port to Wall video covers the journey of GIB® plasterboard production in New Zealand from raw gypsum arriving at the port right through to installation on the wall. 

Port To Wall

For nearly a century, GIB® plasterboard wall-linings have provided safe, warm homes. Manufactured locally, these products use gypsum, offering various benefits like noise control, fire resistance, and structural bracing. The new Tauranga factory enhances production efficiency with gypsum sourced from across the Tasman. Advanced quality control and sustainability practices are embedded in the Tauranga factory, ensuring high standards and environmental performance. The new facility supports better supply and distribution across the North Island, complementing the Christchurch factory and offering tailored services for various regions.
