What is the difference between gypsum and plaster ?
The term Gypsum is often incorrectly used in the building industry. In fact Gypsum is only the raw material from which plaster is made. Gypsum is a natural mineral which is mined in many countries around the world. It is placed into kilns to hydrate and which drives out the moisture content and which finally becomes plaster. Plaster is an extremely safe material as it is non-combustible, non-toxic and non-allergenic.
