Gypsum Plaster
Stand out from the crowd with Gypsum Plaster. Its smooth finish gives the inner surfaces of the walls a lasting glow. It is suitable for all internal surfaces such as brick, block, and concrete.
Gypsum Plaster is manufactured using state-of-the-art technology. It is versatile and provides better coverage than regular gypsum plaster. It contains special additives and aggregates that give a smooth surface finish when it dries.
Gypsum Plaster conforms to IS-2547 standards and is easy to use.
Features
High Strength
Magicrete Gypsum Plaster has a high degree of compressive strength.
Excellent Coverage
Magicrete Gypsum Plaster provides increased coverage compared to conventional plaster. It’s lower density and higher volume allows more square meters to be covered per day. Up to 18-24 sq. ft can be covered per bag of Magicrete Gypsum Plaster with a thickness of 13mm.
No Curing Required
Magicrete Gypsum Plaster is easy to use. Gypsum is self setting and does not require curing. It sets quickly and saves water.
High Thermal Insulation
Magicrete Gypsum Plaster is suited for any climate conditions. It has high thermal insulation that maintains indoor temperature at a comfortable level, regardless of the weather. At 13mm thickness, it provides thermal insulation of R=0.07 m2k/w.
Single Coat Application
The superior quality gypsum contained in Magicrete Gypsum Plaster requires only a single coating. It can be applied directly on to walls and is suitable for all interior plastering needs.
Crack Free Wall
Magicrete Gypsum Plaster’s proven formulation keeps the walls of your building free of shrinkage cracks. Gypsum does not shrink or expand once the setting process is complete, assuring you of crack free walls.

FAQs
Magicrete Gypsum Plaster
Magicrete Gypsum Plaster is a state-of-the-art, IS-2547 compliant surface finishing solution engineered exclusively for interior walls. Designed to be applied directly onto AAC blocks, concrete, and red clay bricks, this self-setting plaster completely replaces the tedious, multi-step process of traditional cement plastering and putty application. It delivers a flawlessly smooth, crack-free satin finish in a single coat while requiring absolutely zero post-application water curing.
The Financial & Timeline Impact on Your BOQ (Bill of Quantities)
For project managers and developers, the interior finishing phase is traditionally the biggest bottleneck. Shifting to Magicrete Gypsum Plaster fundamentally accelerates your project timeline while optimizing costs:
- Hyper-Accelerated Handovers: By replacing the standard 3-step finishing process (cement plaster 7-day water curing double-coat putty) with a single-coat application, contractors can slash interior wall finishing schedules by weeks, advancing the final painting phase immediately.
- Zero Curing Costs: Gypsum is a naturally self-setting material. Once applied, it dries rapidly without any external water sprinkling, saving thousands of liters of water per floor and eliminating the labor costs associated with a dedicated curing workforce.
- Massive Volume Optimization: The "Elite" variant features an ultra-low dry bulk density (650-710 kg/m³). This not only reduces the dead load on the building's structural framework but also provides exceptional coverage of 22-24 sq. ft. per 25kg bag (at 13mm thickness), significantly lowering material procurement volumes.
- Built-In Thermal Insulation: At a 13mm thickness, the plaster delivers an inherent thermal insulation value of R=0.07 m²K/W, supplementing the HVAC efficiency of the interior spaces.
Mandatory Site Execution Guidelines
Magicrete Gypsum Plaster sets rapidly. To guarantee a flawless satin finish and prevent material wastage, site teams must strictly enforce these application protocols:
- Strict Batch Management: The plaster has a highly accelerated initial setting time of just 10-15 minutes (depending on the variant). Masons must only mix small, precise batches in a clean bucket that can be applied to the wall immediately. Never re-add water to a drying mix.
- Surface Preparation: The substrate (AAC block or concrete) must be completely dry, solid, and free of loose dust, oil, or curing compounds. Do not pre-wet the walls before applying gypsum plaster.
- Single-Coat Leveling: Apply directly to the substrate using a steel trowel or aluminum straight edge. The plaster must be leveled and smoothed out in a single continuous coat up to 13mm thick before the initial setting time begins.
