ECO8โ„ข Complete

Complete by name and Complete by nature: for commercial environments, this ultimate plasterboard is specifically engineered to meet the highest standards across a broad range of performance requirements. 

Product Details

Gyprock EC08โ„ข Complete is a 13mm commercial plasterboard manufactured with a dense, fibre-reinforced core that provides superior performance across all major attribute categories: mould resistance, impact resistance, fire rating, acoustic performance, and moisture resistance. All boards in the EC08โ„ข range contain high recycled content and low VOC emissions โ€” making them the default choice for WA projects pursuing Green Star, LEED, or other green building certifications.

EC08โ„ข Complete is manufactured to AS/NZS 2588 Gypsum Plasterboard and identified by its green coloured face paper. Both EC08โ„ข Complete and EC08โ„ข Extreme use the same face paper colour, so confirm the board specification on the delivery documentation for each project.

EC08โ„ข Complete is the right board for most green commercial applications. Where the highest level of impact resistance is the primary driver (mental health facilities, correctional facilities), move up to EC08โ„ข Extreme which adds a fibreglass mesh layer for extreme impact performance.

Best For

  • Green Star and sustainable building projects across Perth and WA
  • Schools, aged care, and healthcare facilities โ€” low VOC, mould resistance, high recycled content
  • Commercial buildings where a single board must meet multiple BCA performance requirements
  • Office fitouts with indoor air quality requirements for occupant health
  • Projects where Acoustic Solutions and fire separation are both required in green-rated buildings
  • Any commercial project where the specification requires GECA-equivalent environmental credentials alongside multi-attribute performance

Why Specifiers Choose It

  • 21.3% recycled content โ€” one of the highest in the Gyprock range; contributes to Green Star materials credits
  • Low VOC โ€” below GBCA limits; suitable for occupied schools and healthcare facilities without off-gassing concerns
  • Fire, acoustic, mould, moisture, and impact resistance in a single 13mm board โ€” reduces product complexity in the specification
  • Non-combustible per BCA Clause C1.12 โ€” compatible with Fyrchekโ„ข systems in mixed fire-rated and non-rated zones of the same building
  • Available in 13mm for standard commercial applications (16mm also in the range for ceiling systems)

Installation Notes That Prevent Callbacks

  • EC08โ„ข Complete weighs 12.4 kg/mยฒ (13mm) โ€” confirm fixing schedule with the Gyprock installation guide for the specified wall or ceiling system.
  • For green building certification purposes, keep board delivery documentation and specification sheets as evidence of GECA certification status and recycled content percentages. The certification documents are available from CSR Gyprock on request. Pair with Compounds from the Gyprock range to maintain low-VOC credentials through the jointing system.
  • EC08โ„ข Complete includes moisture resistance but is not waterproof โ€” in tile wet zones, a waterproof membrane to AS3740 remains required.

How does EC08โ„ข Complete differ from standard plasterboard?

Standard 13mm plasterboard meets AS/NZS 2588 for general wall and ceiling linings. EC08โ„ข Complete adds mould resistance, moisture resistance, impact resistance, fire rating, acoustic performance, low VOC certification, and 21.3% recycled content to the same 13mm format. It is a multi-attribute board that allows a single product to address the overlapping performance requirements of modern green commercial buildings.

Does EC08โ„ข Complete contribute to Green Star ratings?

Yes โ€” EC08โ„ข Complete has low VOC emissions below GBCA limits and high recycled content. It can contribute to Green Star materials and indoor environment quality credits. Confirm the specific credit contribution with your Green Star assessor for your project's rating tool and version.

Can EC08โ„ข Complete be used in wet areas?

Yes โ€” EC08โ„ข Complete includes moisture resistance as part of its multi-attribute specification. In tile wet zones (shower recesses), a waterproof membrane to AS3740 remains required over the board before tiling.

Is EC08โ„ข Complete available in Perth?

Yes โ€” Aussie Plasterboard can supply EC08โ„ข Complete from Osborne Park. Request a quote to confirm availability, lead times, and minimum order quantities for your project.

What is the difference between EC08โ„ข Complete and EC08โ„ข Extreme?

Both boards share the same multi-attribute profile. EC08โ„ข Extreme adds a fibreglass mesh layer to the dense fibre-reinforced core, providing the highest level of impact resistance in the Gyprock range โ€” specifically designed for mental health and correctional facilities. EC08โ„ข Complete is the right choice for most green commercial applications where extreme impact resistance is not the primary requirement.
