Pladur is a business corporation based in Spain dedicated to the manufacture and sale of laminated plasterboards, metal profiles, pastes, plasters and putties, as well as all the accessories necessary to complete the systems.

The origin of the name comes from the Uralite Plate (Pladur).[1]​.

The headquarters is located in Valdemoro, it has a presence in 40 countries and has 9 factories, 5 of them in Spain.[2][3]​.

In 1978 the Uralita group created the company EPYSA (acronym for Española de Placa de Yeso), which would be marketed under the Pladur brand,[4]​[5]​ and began production in its first plant located in Valdemoro.[5]​.

During 2006-2010, the Algíss" (Powder Plaster) brand was created.[6]​ In addition, the profiling plant, the paste plant and the recycling plant were launched in the factory located in Valdemoro.[7]​.

In 2017, the Belgian group Etex had 40.69% of the shares. It decided to buy 35% of the remaining shares from the Coemac Building Materials group to become the majority partner. The operation was closed for 67.3 million euros.[8]​.

In November 2018, the new Gelsa gypsum board factory (Zaragoza) opened, becoming the second Pladur factory in Spain.[9]​[10]​.

Pladur has a production capacity of 90 million square meters of plasterboard. It is made up of 500 employees and consists of 9 factories distributed in 40 countries.

On June 3, 2017, the Superior Court of Justice of Madrid declared the silicosis suffered by a Pladur installer as a permanent disability. This disease was caused by continuous exposure to an environment contaminated with silica dust.[12]​.
