About Placo
Placo, the Saint-Gobain Placo Ibérica brand, is a Spanish dry construction leader based in Madrid with a factory at San Martín de la Vega. It makes plasterboard, profiles, joint compounds and systems for partitions, ceilings and linings, with fire, moisture and acoustic protection solutions.
For a plasterboard partition, performance depends on the board chosen, the metal frame, internal insulation and joint treatment, not just total thickness. Swapping a standard board for a moisture- or fire-resistant one without reviewing the complete system can leave the sought performance unmet.
When ordering a system, state the room use, acoustic or fire requirements and partition height. Request the construction detail, component list, consumption per square metre and fitting instructions, and confirm whether the installer must be trained in the system.
