Georgia-Pacific introduces DensDeck^® ProFast^™ Prime Roof Board, the latest addition to the DensDeck^® portfolio of gypsum board products and a superior solution for efficient, cost-effective mechanically fastened installations, all within the well-known and trusted DensDeck^® family.

A cutting-edge innovation in gypsum-based cover boards, DensDeck® ProFast™ Prime Roof Board is a lightweight solution designed to create efficiency for roofing installations by reducing the need for fasteners by 30-50%, which can significantly lower both material and labor costs.

“The demand for streamlined labor solutions, material cost solutions, and greater ease of use products are top of mind for our customers,” said Hamed Kayello, DensDeck® Roof Board Product Manager. “DensDeck^® ProFast^™ Prime Roof Board is the solution for roofing contractors, architects, and roofing consultants looking for lightweight efficiency and uncompromised durability.”

With its lightweight construction, the board offers easy handling and installation without sacrificing strength or durability. Measuring at 3/8” in thickness, this fiberglass mat reinforced gypsum cover board is approximately 20% lighter than the traditional ½” DensDeck® Prime, yet it maintains robust resistance to fire, wind uplift, punctures, foot traffic, and hail.¹ DensDeck® ProFast™ Prime Roof Board is engineered to deliver exceptional performance, making it an ideal choice for efficient and durable roofing projects.

1. DensDeck® ProFast™ Prime is approximately 20% lighter than ½” DensDeck® Prime Roof Board. The 30%-50% reduction in fasteners is based on third-party testing with multiple roofing assemblies using #15 fasteners and 3" metal flat bottom plates.
