The Durasan line consists of Durasan® BRAND vinyl covered panels. All Durasan panels can be applied directly to studs or as a finish layer over gypsum board. Durasan Panels are especially suited for most demountable partition systems. Because Durasan is prefinished, it is generally less expensive to install than building a wall and then applying a wall covering material.

Durasan can be toploaded on gypsum trucks and is available from most National Gypsum plants. Some plants maintain inventories of the most popular colors and patterns, which are available for immediate shipment.
