Product Overview
Unlike the traditional three coat plasterboard jointing systems, Rigitone boards are joineded by caulking a specialised compound into a gap between the sheets. The filling method is made possible by the unique Rigitone Filler Accessory Kit, combined with Rigitone Primer and the Rigitone Filler compound.
Typical Applications
Rigitone perforated plasterboard is typically used as a high performance plasterboard for ceilings in commercial constructions where a high level of acoustic performance is required. This includes applications such as theatres, restaurants, shopping centres and hotel foyers. Whilst perforated plasterboard in predominantly installed in ceilings, it is suitable for use in walls.

What the Rigitone jointing system includes
Rigitone is not jointed like ordinary plasterboard. Instead of three coats over a recessed edge, the boards are set with a deliberate gap and that gap is caulked with a specialised filler. That only works with the matched primer, filler and tools below , substituting a standard compound will not give the seamless pattern the system is bought for.

Ordering it with the boards
Order the jointing system at the same time as the ceiling , the barrel gun, nozzles and notched knife are specific to this filler, and a job that arrives on site without them stops. The pattern spacers are what hold the gap consistent across a run, so allow enough packs for the crew to work several sheets at once rather than leapfrogging one pair down the ceiling.
The boards themselves: Rigitone Matrix 8mm Round , Rigitone Matrix 8mm Square , Rigitone Matrix 10mm Round , Rigitone Matrix 12mm Round , Rigitone Matrix 12mm Square , Rigitone Astral , Rigitone Galaxy . If the ceiling needs service access, add Rigitone Access Panels and keep a board offcut aside for each one.
