This puts any exterior wall in a great position: Rigips Glasroc X
The exterior wall forms the building envelope — the functional framework and façade of the structure — and must therefore withstand wind, weather, noise and potentially even fire. Gypsum has long played an important role in exterior wall design. Now, it is taking on a central role. With Glasroc X, a fleece-reinforced gypsum board that has been proven to be effective, RIGIPS now also offers a secure, system-tested solution for exterior walls.
Rigips Glasroc X is a fleece-reinforced gypsum board designed for the construction of high-quality drywall systems in damp and wet rooms, as well as for exterior ceilings and walls in timber construction.
A true all-rounder with a multitude of system advantages.

Rigips® Glasroc® X - outdoor stele
As is well known, Rigips Glasroc X can be exposed to the weather temporarily and is therefore suitable for indoor and outdoor use. From now on, we will demonstrate this special feature with an outdoor display, which selected dealers will exhibit in outdoor areas. The display consists of a metal frame enclosing a Rigips Glasroc X board.
The graphic at the top of the display shows the date of installation. This indicates how long it has been exposed to the elements directly.
