BG materials

[Adam2202]

New here so it might be covered elsewhere…..
Anyone else having problems with BG material?
We are getting 12.5mm standard coming in bent from the factory, all bending into the white face so impossible to dab with.
Plus they’re too soft and full of recycling crap.
Also the adhesive needs to be mixed up like cat piss to start with as it goes thick way too quickly. 90 mins usable time??? My arse, more like 40 mins
Trying to get Vistry to change over to Knauf….

I imagine in the future plasterboards will be replaced by a very strong lightweight board that can be glued to joists and the joins will be covered in revolutionary product that when applied is virtually invisible. Just paint no need to skim.
