IS 2095 (Part 1):2011 for plain gypsum plaster boards is an Indian standard code used in the construction industry for plasterboards of plain gypsum under BIS Certification. Gypsum is a naturally occurring mineral; therefore, it is light and easy to handle. Its use involves residential and commercial buildings in the walls and the ceilings. Boards like these can be used to create smooth walls, false ceilings, and partitions based on their utility. Gypsum plaster boards have become popular because they provide fire resistance and good sound insulation, making them suitable for meeting current construction requirements.
The demand for efficient building materials increases the market for gypsum plaster boards. To obtain quality and safety standards, products must take BIS certification, which ensures that these products meet necessary criteria related to strength and performance.
IS 2095 (Part 1)

This product is used to cover standard gypsum plasterboard on walls or ceilings, which can be painted or applied with plaster. It allows manufacturers to produce products that can be trusted and promotes the use of natural gypsum through construction.
