Introduction to the Quality and Characteristics of Calcium Silicate Boards

Recently, many people have been joining group buying or purchasing through overseas agents. While this trend is popular, it's worth noting that such methods aren't always reliable—there have even been reports of overseas counterfeit factories set up to meet the demand. So why does overseas purchasing remain so common? Often, it’s because domestic products are perceived as lagging in quality, though some may also be influenced by a comparative mindset or the appeal of buying foreign brands.

I still remember years ago, when renovating, many turned to overseas agents to buy Japanese or foreign-brand toilets. Of course, other decorative materials were also sourced this way, though they didn’t attract as much attention.

Here at Jiude, as a manufacturer of calcium silicate boards, we believe that when it comes to this type of board, there’s really no need to look abroad. Nowadays, many domestic manufacturers place strong emphasis on quality. To be honest, as long as the board is produced with good machinery, sound technology, and high-quality materials, it generally won’t have issues with inferior performance.

Now when it comes to calcium silicate board products, it's worth noting that for current renovation needs, domestic options are already of excellent quality. Take domestic smartphones as an example — brands like Xiaomi, Meizu, and Huawei are now performing just as well as foreign brands and are widely favored by Chinese consumers. Similarly, our Huachengxing Jiude brand has also gained the trust of the majority of consumers. Our products meet fire safety requirements, offer great strength and density, and excel in perforation techniques. Additionally, our printed boards come in a variety of patterns, demonstrating a very mature technology. In terms of calcium silicate boards, our technical expertise is in no way inferior to that of foreign manufacturers.

Of course, when it comes to materials like paint or other related products, the truth is that there are many high-quality domestic options available. It’s not always the case that foreign products are better — sometimes we really should have more faith in our own country’s products. Renovation is indeed important, and many people worry that domestic products might be harmful to health, but in reality, there isn’t that much cause for concern. Materials like asbestos-free calcium silicate boards and light steel keels are considered green building materials.

Calcium silicate boards have already been widely adopted by many construction companies and building projects. Why is this board so widely used? The reason ultimately lies in its outstanding product advantages:

Product Advantages

Fire Resistance

Calcium silicate boards are classified as non-combustible A1-grade materials. In the event of a fire, the boards will not ignite nor emit toxic smoke.

Waterproof Performance

These boards offer excellent waterproof properties, maintaining structural stability even in high-humidity environments such as bathrooms, without swelling or deformation.

High Strength

Calcium silicate boards possess high mechanical strength. A 6mm-thick calcium silicate board is significantly stronger than a 9.5mm-thick standard paper gypsum board, providing solid and reliable wall construction that resists damage and cracking.

Dimensional Stability

Manufactured with advanced formulations under strict quality control, calcium silicate boards exhibit minimal wet expansion and dry shrinkage, ensuring excellent dimensional stability.

Thermal and Acoustic Insulation

With effective thermal insulation properties, a 10mm-thick calcium silicate partition wall outperforms a conventional brick wall in thermal resistance. It also provides notable sound insulation.

Long Service Life

Calcium silicate boards are chemically stable, resistant to acids, alkalis, corrosion, moisture, insects, and ants. These qualities contribute to exceptional durability and a long service life.

About Calcium Silicate Board

Calcium silicate board originated in Europe and has a development history of over 100 years. After being introduced to China, domestic building material manufacturers have further refined its production to better align with local construction standards. Continuous technological breakthroughs in research and development have ensured that the quality and stability of domestically produced calcium silicate boards are on par with international products.
