There is a nationwide shortage of building materials, especially plasterboard, David Thomas, General Manager of Winstone Wallboards, has released a statement explaining what’s happening with GIB® plasterboard supply.
There has been a lot of commentary and speculation about GIB® plasterboard supply over recent weeks, and I would like to take this opportunity to explain the issues and proposed solutions, Winstone Wallboards has underway.
I want to start by saying it is as important to us, like anyone, that we keep the industry confident in the supply of plasterboard. Our two manufacturing sites are operating 24/7 and producing plasterboard at record levels. In fact, we are dispatching enough plasterboard for 1,000 houses per week. This probably raises the question about why supply is constrained… so let me explain.
