13mm Siniat Multishield Plasterboard
13mm Siniat Multishield is a tough, multi-performance plasterboard designed for projects that need fire resistance, acoustic control and impact durability in one lining. It’s a popular choice for commercial fitouts, multi-res corridors, education and healthcare builds where standard board won’t last.
PPC Supplies stocks Siniat boards for pickup and delivery across WA and SA, including Perth (Canning Vale & Osborne Park) and Adelaide. If you’re matching a tested wall/ceiling system, tell us the FRL/Rw target and we’ll help you line up the right components.
What is Siniat Multishield?
Multishield is a specialty board from Siniat that combines multiple performance requirements into a single sheet. It’s commonly specified where you’d otherwise be tempted to double-layer boards to achieve durability and compliance outcomes.
Key features
- Fire performance: Suitable for use within certified fire-rated wall and ceiling systems (system dependent).
- Acoustic performance: Helps reduce airborne sound transfer when installed as part of an acoustic system.
- High impact resistance: Reinforced core for high-traffic areas.
- Mould resistance: Improved resistance compared to standard plasterboard (ideal for demanding internal environments).
- One-board solution: Helps simplify specifications and installation where multiple properties are required.
Typical applications
Healthcare & aged care
Great for corridors, patient areas and back-of-house spaces where impact resistance matters, while still supporting fire and acoustic requirements within the overall system.
Schools & universities
Suitable for classrooms, hallways and shared spaces that take daily knocks, with improved acoustic separation when built to a tested configuration.
Apartments & multi-res
Often specified for intertenancy and common-area linings where acoustic privacy and fire performance are key.
Commercial fitouts
Used for tenancy walls, service risers and high-wear internal partitions.
Compliance and performance notes
- Use within tested and certified Siniat wall/ceiling systems to achieve FRL and acoustic targets.
- Acoustic ratings (Rw/Rw+Ctr) depend on framing, insulation, fixing method and penetrations.
- Install to relevant manufacturer guidance and AS/NZS 2589 for plasterboard linings.
